HELP & ANSWERS

Before you check.

Clear information about services, billing and results.

Which detection service should I choose?

Choose Turnitin for academic AI-writing and similarity reports, iThenticate for research-paper AI-writing reports, Quick AI for a preliminary writing-pattern review, or ZeroGPT for a separate AI-writing score.

Do I need to buy separate credits for each service?

No. Quick AI, Turnitin, iThenticate and ZeroGPT share your Textsure Credits. Each service has its own cost and document requirements; review them before submitting.

Is Quick AI equivalent to a Turnitin report?

No. Quick AI uses an LLM prompt to produce a preliminary estimate and can be inaccurate. It is not a Turnitin or iThenticate result. The source of each result should always remain visible.

What is the difference between similarity and AI detection?

Similarity checking looks for matching text in sources. AI-writing detection estimates patterns associated with generated writing. The two scores describe different things; neither is a finding of misconduct on its own.

What happens to my document?

Textsure checks your input before sending it to the selected analysis service. Reports saved to your account are available in My reports. See Document handling for service-specific processing, retention and deletion details.
