GPTZero

GPTZero acts like a digital detective, thought up by the brainy Edward Tian from Princeton University. Its mission? To spot the differences between words crafted by humans and those spun by AI, like ChatGPT. GPTZero delves into the unique patterns and structures that AI tends to leave behind in text, waving a flag when something seems more machine-made than human-crafted. It's impressively detailed, able to zoom in on individual sentences to detect the tell-tale signs of AI authorship.

Who finds it super handy? Teachers, for one, who can catch when a student's essay leans a tad too much on AI. Employers, too, can dig through applications to ensure the creativity and responses are authentically human. And for those communities online where sharing stories and articles is the norm, GPTZero helps keep the content genuinely original.

Open to everyone, GPTZero offers both free and premium plans to fit various usage levels. However, it's fair to remember that it's not completely error-proof. There might be times it confuses a burst of human inspiration for AI's output or misses spotting an AI-crafted piece.

GPTZero has several practical applications:

1. Education: It helps educators detect whether students have used AI to complete assignments, ensuring academic integrity.
2. Hiring and Recruitment: Recruiters use it to verify if job applications, like resumes and cover letters, are genuinely written by applicants.
3. Social Writing Platforms: To maintain the authenticity of content on platforms that value human expression and interaction, GPTZero identifies AI-generated posts or comments.

These use cases showcase GPTZero's versatility in different sectors where distinguishing between human and AI-generated text is crucial.

GPTZero offers various subscription plans:

1. Essential (School Board Endorsed) - Priced at $10/month, this basic plan includes key AI detection features but not plagiarism scanning. It allows 150,000 words per month and batch file scanning of up to 10 files.
2. Premium (Most Popular) - At $16/month, this plan is suitable for individuals needing full feature access, including plagiarism scans. It offers 300,000 words per month and additional features like writing feedback.

Each plan varies in word limit, security, team sharing options, and specialized features.

Alex Cui, located in Toronto, joined the team as CTO in April 2023 and brings experience from previous roles at notable companies.
