At Clicking Publish, producing original, high-quality content is essential to our success. To maintain these standards, it's important that we verify the work from freelancers and outsourced writers. Originality.ai makes this process easy for us by providing a simple and efficient tool that ensures the content we receive meets our expectations.

I love the tool. Not only does it detect ACTUAL Al written content, but also writers who write just like Al. Great way to weed out Al and poor writing. Just because content was written by a human doesn't mean they did any better than an Al tool. We had a lot of our writers test positive for Al and they didn't use Al. What was common in all their writing was the lack of original thoughts. It was all regurgitation.

If you work with freelancers, hire agencies, or manage a content team – you need protection against low quality AI content making its way onto your site and Originality.ai was the ONLY tool that achieved a 100% detection rate in our testing.

Originality.ai did a fantastic job on all three prompts, precisely detecting them as AI-written. Additionally, after I checked with actual human-written textual content, it did determine it as 100% human-generated, which is important.

We completed a fact checker accuracy study looking at the accuracy of our Fact Checking aid. The results show an overall 86.69% accuracy. Originality.ai closely tied GPT-5 for accuracy, with a slight lead (Originality = 86.69% accuracy vs. GPT-5 = 86.67%), while decisively beating GPT-4o.However, the accuracy still means that the tool should be used as a fact checking aid and not viewed as the final source of truth.
Nearly everything! The fact has to be verifiable though, so for example you can’t check “Chocolate ice cream is the best flavour.” as this is an opinion which cannot be peer verified. Also, for now we are steering clear of anything political.
In short, no. But watch this space for updates in the coming months!
The Originality.ai Fact Checker has at least 1 source for every identified fact, each with a url, and now a title and date (if relevant). Plus, you can now generate a quick copy-pasteable citation in the style of your choice (APA, MLA, Chicago Notes and Bibliography, IEEE) for each individual search result source used by the Fact Scanner in its evaluation. Additionally, users can now generate a .docx or .txt file containing all the sources the Fact Scanner used in its scan.
In short the checker goes through the content per sentence, fetches relevant URLs, and uses their content and your article to verify your fact.
