Detecto vs It's AI

Detecto is a web service that estimates AI-generation likelihood for text, images, video, and audio, returning calibrated probabilities, supporting evidence, and reviewer reports. Text reports can highlight sentences and show perplexity, burstiness, and a confidence band. Image reports include generation likelihood, a region heatmap, surface-artifact flags, and metadata-integrity checks. Reviewers can add notes, save reports, export PDFs, and share controlled links. Scans and reports are private to the account by default; ephemeral mode allows scanning without storing content or reports. Detecto says submissions are never used to train its detection models. The service is aimed at editors, educators, newsroom verification desks, PR teams, agencies, publishers, and universities. A free tier includes starter credits and full report fidelity without a card. Student costs $6.99 a month billed $83.88/yr; Pro costs $19.99 a month billed $239.88/yr; Max costs $59.90 a month billed $718.80/yr. Scores are probabilistic, not proof, and short or translated text can affect detection.

It's AI estimates whether text may have been written by a language model, including content associated with ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, and other models. It also offers plagiarism, grammar, and spelling checks. Users can paste text or upload PDF, DOCX, and TXT files; the displayed limits are 200 to 500,000 characters. Deep Scan highlights sentences that appear AI-generated and provides a word heatmap showing which parts influence the score. Listed integrations include an API, Chrome Extension, ChatGPT Plugin, Python SDK, Canvas LMS, and Zapier; Moodle is marked as coming soon. The service is presented for teachers, students, institutions, and publishers, as well as writers, managers, recruiters, and ML engineers. It also offers enterprise API access and batch processing. The FAQ advises treating results as evidence alongside context, not as sole proof of AI use, and says content is not shared with third parties after checks are complete. The free plan is listed at free. Plus is listed at $84 a year, billed at $84/year and shown as $7 and $9/month with annual savings.
