What it looks for

  1. 23 word families that turn up all over machine-written pages: delve, tapestry, seamless, solutions and more.
  2. Stock phrases like "in today's fast-paced world", "not just X, it's Y" and "the result?".
  3. Shape and punctuation: long dashes, three-adjective lists, very long sentences and pages that say "we" more than "you".

A high score doesn't prove a machine wrote something, and a low one doesn't prove a person did. It shows the places a reader is likely to stop trusting the page. Each tell links to a page on why it reads that way and what to write instead.
