Instead of detecting AI, record and replay writing as it happens

A new tool called HWT (Human Written Text) allows writers to record their keystrokes as they type, generating a unique code that links to a replay of the writing process. The code can be attached to any published text, enabling readers to verify that the content was written by hand rather than generated by AI. The tool aims to certify human authorship in an era of AI-generated content.

See an HWT code? #

Here's what it means:

Someone wrote it by hand — every keystroke recorded — then put a code on it. Look it up and watch it being written, in seconds.

Someone typed something by hand.

The writer typed every character into our editor — no paste, no drag-and-drop, no voice. Every keystroke was recorded, so the writing can be replayed exactly as it happened.

They got a code tied to it.

When they finished, they hit generate. The code is permanently locked to what they wrote — and to the recording of how they wrote it. It can never be reused or reassigned.

They put it at the end.

The code travels with the writing — end of a post, a cover letter, an email. When you see it, look it up and watch it being written, keystroke by keystroke.

The code goes #

wherever the writing goes.

Plain text at the end of whatever you publish. Anyone who sees it can verify it.

For people who write their own words. #

Because certification requires direct keyboard input, this tool may not be useable by all users.

Type something. #
