Free AI code detector

Does Your Code Read as AI-Generated?

Paste a single file and get a reading from two independent channels, with the known limits stated up front. No sign-up, no storage of your submission beyond your own history.

Free checks: 3 per day. Code detection is newer and less certain than prose detection — we show you what the channels said, not a made-up certainty.

Free scan: we analyze your first ~300 characters

Measured on real samples

Three labeled samples from our own probe runs (August 2026, frozen inputs, real API calls). The readings below are what the channels actually returned.

AI-written (Python, Claude)

Reads as AI-generated

Both channels: clearly AI (90 / 95)

Human-written (C, git v1.7.0, 2010)

Reads as human-written

Both channels: clearly human (0 / 5)

AI-written (JavaScript, Claude)

Uncertain — and we say so

Channels disagreed (60 / 95)

Disagreement between channels is shown as disagreement. We do not average two conflicting readings into a confident-sounding number.

What a code reading is — and is not

Measured

In our frozen retest (49 real code files, three AI generators), the channels behind this page separated AI-written from human-written code cleanly on that set. Mixed or lightly edited files were harder — that is in the data too.

Our estimate

Short snippets and heavily templated code (boilerplate, CRUD, config) read as more machine-like regardless of who wrote them. Treat borderline readings accordingly.

What no one can know

No detector can prove who wrote a file. If you were flagged by a tool somewhere else, the persuasive evidence is your process: drafts, history, and being able to explain the code — not a cleaner score.

What we will not do

We do not rewrite code to beat a detector, and we do not sell a score that claims to prove authorship. If your code was flagged and you wrote it, we would rather help you document how you wrote it than sell you a number.
