How is plagiarism detected?
Your professors or readers might notice plagiarism if the style, formatting, or tone of your text is inconsistent or if they recognize the original source.
Many universities also use plagiarism software to scan assignments and flag similarities with other works. Using a plagiarism checker yourself before submitting can help you avoid committing accidental plagiarism.
Additionally, unintentional AI use can raise red flags if it’s not properly disclosed. The QuillBot AI Detector helps you quickly identify sections that may appear AI-written, so you can revise, cite, or humanize your text.
