Silvertext reads your draft once and runs every check on it at the same time: plagiarism against published pages on the open web, spelling and grammar, citations, clarity and word choice, and AI likelihood. Every finding lands in one report, on your own text, with a fix you can accept in one click.
What happens when you run a check
- Your text is read and split into passages. A pasted draft, an uploaded file, or a link all end up as the same plain text. Nothing is changed at this point.
- Passages are searched. Each passage is matched against published web pages, including journal and publisher pages that are openly reachable. When a passage matches, the report shows the source next to it so you can verify the match yourself.
- Language and style passes run. Spelling, grammar, punctuation, clarity and word choice are checked sentence by sentence, in the language each sentence is written in.
- AI likelihood is estimated. The report shows how likely the writing is to be machine generated, overall and per sentence. This is an estimate, not a verdict; see the AI detection articles for what it can and cannot tell you.
- The report opens. Findings are grouped by type, each with its source or explanation and a suggested fix.
What it compares against
Published pages on the open web. Silvertext does not keep an archive of other people's documents, and your draft is never added to one. Your text runs your check and nothing else.
What it costs
A free scan needs no account and shows the full report of the first 5,000 words, every check included. A free account keeps your reports and adds 0 free checks of the same length; longer papers and more checks need a plan, and the trial covers your first ones. Pro plans include a monthly or weekly allowance of credits; a check costs 40 credits per 250 words plus the checks you turn on, 150 with everything on. See the Credits, plans and billing collection for the schedule.
