Which AI Detection Model Should I Use?

Which Originality.ai model is right for you? Compare the latest Originality.ai models for detecting AI-generated content.

At Originality.ai, we focus on providing you with the highest quality AI content detection tool, allowing you to establish whether or not AI was used to generate a specific piece of content.

Don't get us wrong; we are not against the concept of AI-generated content. However, we are passionate about the importance of transparency, especially in a world where misinformation runs rife. We believe that any AI usage should be identified and shared openly to allow users to understand the context behind what they are reading.

Originality.ai allows you to do that, offering a percentage score to help you identify which aspects of content are likely human-written and which bits are likely AI-generated.

We’ve seen over and over again throughout our featured Case Studies that our AI Content Detection Tool is used under diverse user scenarios.

Overview of Models

Over the last couple of years, Originality.ai has released several models, each of which aims to address a specific use case. As LLMs continue to advance at unprecedented speeds, it’s really important to stay ahead of the curve by continually updating, switching out and retiring older models. 

Currently, our users have the ability to select between the Lite Model, Turbo Model, or MultiLanguage to best suit their specific content needs.

But one key question remains. What is the difference between the versions?

Lite Model 

  • 98% accuracy at detecting AI content.
  • Under 1% false positive rate.
  • Allows for some light AI editing (such as Grammarly’s spelling and grammar suggestions).
  • Best suited for academic use.

Turbo Model 

  • Extremely high accuracy rate and AI sensitivity.
  • Designed for strict 0 tolerance policies against AI use.
  • Utilizes advanced detection algorithms to identify AI-generated content.
  • Ensures that AI usage is almost always identified, providing you with the utmost confidence in the origins of your content.
  • Under 5% false positive rate.

Multilingual

  • This is our default model for non-English languages. 
  • Accurate across 15 languages

Which AI Detection Model Should I Use?

It’s important to understand your risk tolerance to AI-generated content before you decide which model is best for you.

Marketing agencies

If you’re a marketing agency, you can choose between Originality.ai’s Lite and Turbo Models based on your specific needs and the stringentness of your editorial guidelines with respect to generative AI. 

The Lite model is best for scenarios where light AI editing (such as grammar and spelling AI-generated suggestions) is acceptable. On the other hand, the Turbo Model is designed for organizations that have a strict zero tolerance AI policy. Although this model has a slightly higher FP (false positive) rate, it provides maximum confidence to businesses requiring zero AI in their content. 

Marketing agencies can decide which model aligns best with their policies and their client's expectations. 

Writers and editors

Writers and editors who are expected to submit authentic and original content (without any AI editing) would likely want to use the Turbo Model. Due to its extreme sensitivity to AI-generated content, even the smallest traces of AI will be caught. 

This model provides writers and editors with confidence that their work is authentically human. 

Although tools like Grammarly are popular for refining writing, our research shows that Grammarly’s AI detector is less effective than Originality.ai’s.

Educators

One area that has been significantly impacted by the evolution of generative AI is education, with many academics and educators worrying about students over-relying on these tools, rather than using their own creativity and expertise.

However, detecting AI content in education is not a simple process, and educators need to ensure they are using detectors to guide their decision-making and thought processes, but not replace them.

After all, nobody wants to get into a situation where articles are getting flagged as AI, despite minimal to no use.

For educators, we recommend using the Lite Model, as it’s highly accurate, has a very low false positive rate, and also allows for some light AI editing. This allows students to use spell-checker software while still identifying AI-generated content.

5 Benefits of Originality.ai AI Detection

AI content detection comes with many benefits, many of which are obvious, but some of which you may not yet have considered.

1. Access the most accurate AI detector

First (and most importantly), Originality.ai is an industry leader when it comes to AI content detection accuracy.

There are several accurate and well-meaning AI content detectors on the market today, but there also plenty out there that are acting as a marketing tool and nothing more (read a round-up of AI detection tools reviewed).

As such, the perception of AI content detection can be somewhat mixed. At Originality.ai, we not only believe in providing you with the best tool on the market, but we also back up that claim by offering complete transparency in our results so that you can be confident when using our tool.

2. Save time and streamline your workflow

Aside from AI content detection, we also offer an industry-leading plagiarism detector, readability checker, and fact-checking tool.

The best part? They’re all in one place and can be toggled on and off with a single click, saving you valuable time and streamlining your workflow.

Not only that but if you want to optimize your content updates and review potential instances of AI content en masse, you can do so with our Site Scan tool, which will scan multiple pages with one quick click.

3. Industry-leading data protection

We are open and transparent about AI content detection accuracy and protecting customer content. While other popular AI content detectors may store your information (or sell it to third parties), we keep your content safe and secure. Read more about how we treat your content.

We use industry-leading encryption protocols to protect your personal information and never disclose it to third parties.

We also never sell personal or customer information to third parties, ensuring your data is carefully protected in our database.

When you upload content to our site, you can opt-in to let us keep and use an anonymized version, but you also have the option to opt-out of this process at any time.

4. Publish with confidence

The accuracy of our AI content detector ensures that you can publish your content with confidence. While there is plenty of AI content appearing in Google Search results, Google is also actively attempting to remove as much of it as posible.

As several studies have shown, humans are unable to detect AI content successfully, so using a tool like ours is the best way to have true confidence that what you are publishing online is authentic.

5. Best-in-class customer support

At Originality.ai, we pride ourselves on offering our customers industry-leading support. You can chat with us any time within the platform using the Live Chat feature or send us an email with any queries you may have. Our team are always happy to help!
