Show HN: Isitslop.xyz, a free AI-writing detector built on latest research A developer launched Isitslop.xyz, a free AI-writing detector built on the latest research, aiming to provide a no-login, no-upsell alternative to existing detectors. The tool is based on multiple academic papers and Wikipedia's signs of AI writing, and is shared on Hacker News for feedback. I have a weird habit of guessing whether something's AI before I check, especially on LinkedIn and Reddit for obvious reasons . The detectors I used to confirm were mostly junk and built to sell you a "humanizer" upsell, so I went and read the actual research on what gives AI text away in 2026, then built my own no login and free The main sources I used are these: https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.07016 https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.07016 https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07183 https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07183 https://aclanthology.org/2025.coling-main.426/ https://aclanthology.org/2025.coling-main.426/ https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.16107 https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.16107 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs of AI writing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs of AI writing Amazing article on the topic Would love to hear what you think and how you spot slop in the wild Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48534908 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48534908 Points: 2 Comments: 1
