Will my Paperpal edited document be flagged as plagiarised?
At a document level, unless the original manuscript has been copied, it is very rare that it
will be flagged by the plagiarism checker tools. Also, at a sentence level, there is a low
possibility that text generated by Paperpal will get flagged by a plagiarism checker.
However, as the rewrites suggested by Paperpal follow standard academic sentence
construction, there is a chance that a tools like Turnitin might pick individual sentences as
resembling published literature.
Will my Paperpal edited document be flagged by AI detectors?
Being flagged by AI detectors isn't necessarily a bad thing. Many authors use AI tools to
improve writing and productivity. AI detectors promote accountability to ensure content is
reliable. Understand the AI scoring and then use Paperpal's output as a base to refine the
text and express ideas in your style. Secondly, note that AI detectors are in the early stages
of development. For example, one AI detector falsely claimed the US Constitution was
written by AI. Therefore, these detectors can be used as a reference but should not be relied
on for an accurate assessment.

the data you process using Paperpal. Your data used for Paperpal Generative AI features and
