Can Plagly detect ChatGPT-4o vs GPT-5.5?

Yes. Plagly's detection engine is trained on outputs from multiple GPT versions, including GPT-4o and GPT-5.5. While both models share core patterns, GPT-5.5 introduces new fluency characteristics that our engine recognizes. The results indicate which model family is most likely responsible for the text.

How accurate is ChatGPT detection?

Plagly achieves 99% accuracy on ChatGPT-generated text in controlled benchmarks. Real-world accuracy depends on text length and whether the content has been paraphrased. Texts over 150 words yield the most reliable results.

Can ChatGPT detection be fooled by paraphrasing?

Light paraphrasing may reduce confidence scores, but Plagly's multi-signal analysis still detects underlying AI patterns in most cases. Heavily rewritten text can be harder to flag, which is why we provide confidence percentages rather than binary verdicts.

Does the ChatGPT detector work on short texts?

The detector works on texts as short as 50 words, though accuracy improves significantly with 150+ words. Short social media posts may produce lower-confidence results due to limited statistical signal.

Is the ChatGPT detector free?

Yes. Quick scans are completely free and require no signup. For advanced features like batch analysis, document upload, and detailed reports, a free account gives you additional word credits each month.

Can teachers use this to check student essays for ChatGPT?

Absolutely. Plagly is designed with educators in mind. Teachers can paste or upload student work and receive a detailed sentence-by-sentence report highlighting which portions were likely generated by ChatGPT.

What is the difference between ChatGPT detection and plagiarism checking?

Plagiarism checking compares text against published sources to find copied content. ChatGPT detection analyzes the writing style itself to determine whether it was generated by an AI model, even if the content is entirely original and appears nowhere else online.
