Practical guidance for educators, institutions, and teams reviewing AI-era writing.
Define allowed tasks, protect sensitive information and assign a human approver. Use this starting policy for your team's AI-assisted writing.
A plausible title and a working DOI are not enough. Verify the source, its bibliographic details and the claim you are using it to support.
Explain what assistance you used, where it affected the work and what you checked. Start with your course rules, not a detector percentage.
A flagged essay is not proof of AI use. Here is how to check the report and explain your writing process without chasing a lower score.
Put the rule in one page. A scan starts a review. It does not issue the decision.
Check the draft the way an editor would. The score shows where the voice slips. A person still approves the piece.
Use the report to choose what to discuss. Keep the grade decision in the conversation, the draft, and your policy.
Start with the essay, not the percentage. A scan shows where to look. The writer, the drafts, and the sources still decide what happened.
The percentage is a signal about the writing in front of you. It is not a receipt for who typed each sentence.
The number ranks the document. The highlights tell you which lines to read next. Review those.
A coloured sentence is a review signal, not a verified authorship label. Here is how to interpret highlights in a human–AI draft.
Three tools, three different questions. A clean result from one does not replace the other two—or a human review.
A practical comparison worksheet for AI detection, human false positives, highlights and mixed writing—not an invented leaderboard.
A detector can identify passages to inspect. It cannot replace source checking, editorial judgment or your publication's AI-use policy.
Practical reasons to try Certaffy: review the writing, understand the report and keep the final judgment in human hands.
A practical guide to word limits, page estimates and speaking time—with worked examples and free counting tools.
Missing paragraphs or scrambled reading order can undermine a review before scoring begins.
News, blogs, reports and emails need more than an AI score. Evaluate a detector without confusing marketing with evidence.
Use a detector to start a careful review, not end a student's opportunity to explain their work.
A percentage, a highlighted passage and a verdict answer different questions. Read them without confusing a signal with proof.
