For students
Check your own draft before you submit it, so nothing in it surprises you later.
Check before you submit
Paste your essay or paper and see which sentences look machine-written and which references need fixing. Essays, research papers, and other writing-led assignments are the natural fit.
Polishing is not the same as writing
Polishing changes the surface of your text, and surface patterns are part of what any detector measures. That is why HalluSpot reports a level of AI involvement instead of a yes-or-no accusation, and why possible AI assistance is a separate result from likely AI-generated.
Fix citations before they cost marks
Run the citation check on your References section. If a reference is unsure or unverifiable, check the author, title, year, and DOI yourself before submitting — and keep the corrected reference, not just the score.
