Overview

What you provide

  • Upload a permitted document or image, or submit text for an authenticity check.

What you get

  • Inspect detection findings and export or share the available reports.

Choosing this tool

Winston is relevant when reviewers receive files, scanned pages or handwriting rather than only pasted text. Its plan comparison separates plagiarism features and team capacity, so inspect the selected tier instead of assuming every detector includes them. Use Sapling for writing assistance in the editor or Copyleaks for a combined content-integrity workflow.

A decision worked through

A team needing five members should compare Advanced rather than budget from the Essential headline offer. The fourteen-day trial is an evaluation window, not a recurring monthly free allowance.
