BareGPT
Free AI Detector for College Students

Know your AI score before your professor does

Your school's detector gives your professor a number. BareGPT shows you the exact sentences that might get flagged — before you submit — and builds proof that you wrote it yourself.

You get a score, a confidence range, and the exact sentences driving the result — not just a number.

A score without evidence is just a guess

AI detectors are famous for false positives. We built BareGPT to be accountable for every result.

Sentence-Level Evidence

See exactly which sentences look AI-generated and why — uniform rhythm, template transitions, repeated patterns.

Honest Confidence Ranges

Every score comes with a confidence interval and an explicit false-positive risk. No fake certainty.

Prove You Wrote It

Falsely accused of using AI? Authorship verification builds a defensible record of your writing process.

Downloadable PDF Reports

Export a full evidence report you can share — with the score, signals, and highlighted passages.

Style Fingerprint

Compare a draft against a known writing sample to see whether it matches the author's natural style.

Writing Tools Included

An editor, draft comparison, and writing feedback come built in — revise flagged writing in your own words.

Made for how college actually works now

Every submission gets run through a detector. The students who are fine are the ones who checked first.

Before you submit

Scan your essay and see exactly what a detector sees — the sentences that read as generic, the patterns that trigger flags, and why. Revise in your own words, rescan, and turn it in knowing where you stand. Works for course essays, applications, and scholarship writing.

If you're ever accused

False flags happen constantly — especially to careful writers and non-native English speakers. Write in BareGPT and it builds an authorship record of your drafting process automatically. When a professor questions your work, you show receipts instead of pleading your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about BareGPT

How does the AI detector work?

BareGPT analyzes stylometric signals — sentence rhythm, phrase repetition, transition density, vocabulary variety, and more — and combines them into a score. Every scan shows you which signals fired and which sentences drove the result. See our Methodology page for details.

Is it accurate?

No AI detector is perfect, and any tool claiming near-100% accuracy is overselling. That's why every BareGPT result includes a confidence range and false-positive risk. We'd rather give you an honest read than false certainty.

Is BareGPT free?

Yes — you can scan text right on this page without an account. A free account unlocks more scans per day, and Pro removes limits and adds PDF evidence reports and file uploads.

What is authorship verification?

Write in BareGPT's editor and it builds a record of your drafting process — revisions and progress over time. If your work is ever questioned, you can produce evidence that you wrote it, not just a detector score.

Can a detector score prove someone used AI?

No — and we say so on every report. Detection scores are risk signals, not proof. That's exactly why we show evidence and confidence ranges: they support a fair conversation rather than a verdict.

What text works best?

At least 150 words of prose. Longer passages give steadier scores because there are more patterns to analyze. The free scan on this page accepts up to 5,000 characters; accounts can scan much more.

Is my text private?

Yes. Your text stays yours. We don't sell your data, share it with third parties, or train AI models on your content without explicit consent. See our privacy policy for details.

What if Turnitin flags my essay anyway?

If you drafted in BareGPT, you have an authorship record — revisions and progress over time — to show your professor. Process evidence resolves most disputes fast, because it's nearly impossible to fake. See our guide on why essays get falsely flagged.
