Detection Accuracy

AI detection accuracy is not a single number. It varies by tool, by the type of text being analyzed, by how much editing was done, and by the language. Students in the community regularly run their own tests, comparing results across multiple detectors and sharing findings to help others understand what the scores actually mean.

What Students Are Asking

What is a good AI detection accuracy rate?

For fully AI-generated text with no editing, most modern detectors score 85-95% accuracy. For heavily edited AI text, accuracy drops to 30-60%. For original human writing, you want the false positive rate below 5%, but many tools exceed this threshold.
