Academic proofreading, plagiarism checking and AI-powered writing tools in one place
A vetted academic editor reviews your paper within hours and returns tracked changes, comments and an explanation letter.
Scans your document against a large web and publication database to surface potentially unoriginal passages before submission.
Flags text likely generated by large language models and offers a rewriting mode aimed at making AI-assisted drafts sound more natural.
Creates and verifies references in APA, MLA, Chicago, AMA, IEEE and ACS styles from a URL, DOI or title search.
Fraud and abuse detection that recognizes visitors, bots and risky accounts under any masking
Recognizes returning visitors across cleared cookies, incognito sessions and changed IP addresses, and links multiple accounts that trace back to the same person or device.
Flags multi-accounting, account sharing, account takeover and impossible travel out of the box, with a confidence value per event and no fraud model training required.
Names the risk signals behind each result: VPN, proxy, Tor, private relay, datacenter, anti-detect browser, incognito mode, JavaScript disabled, OS and timezone mismatch, browser automation and AI bots.
Scores every visit 0–100 and classifies it as trusted, suspicious or dangerous, then aggregates a single traffic-quality score with breakdowns by channel, referrer and UTM campaign.
