Technology for Truth,
Not Punishment.
We believe AI should act as a scaffold for human intelligence, not a replacement. Our detection tools are built to foster originality and fair assessment in the age of generative AI.
For Students
Your degree represents your ability to think, not just your ability to output text.
- Brainstorm, Don’t Generate: Use AI to outline ideas or explain complex concepts, but write the final draft yourself.
- Cite Your Sources: If you use an AI tool for research, acknowledge it just as you would a textbook.
- Verify Facts: LLMs hallucinate. You are responsible for the accuracy of every claim in your paper.
- Maintain Voice: Your unique perspective is what is being graded. Don’t let an algorithm dilute your voice.
For Educators
Adapt assessment strategies to evaluate process, not just the final product.
- Indicators, Not Proof: AI detection scores are probabilistic. Use them as a starting point for conversation, not immediate disciplinary action.
- The “Oral Defense”: If a paper is flagged, ask the student to explain their arguments verbally. AI users often cannot explain the logic deeper.
- Draft History: Encourage students to work in Google Docs with version history enabled to prove human effort.
- Redefine Assignments: Create prompts that require personal experience or recent local events that AI cannot access reliably.
Navigating the Grey Area
Understanding where “Assistance” ends and “Academic Dishonesty” begins.
Permissible Use
- Using AI to brainstorm topic ideas or research questions.
- Asking AI to explain a difficult concept in simpler terms.
- Using grammar checkers (like Grammarly) to fix spelling errors.
- Generating practice quiz questions to test your knowledge.
- Translating a specific phrase to understand its nuance.
Prohibited Use
- Generating an entire essay or paragraph and submitting it.
- Paraphrasing AI text without citation (“Spinning”).
- Using AI to solve a take-home exam or math problem set.
- Creating a fake bibliography or citations using AI hallucinations.
- Translating an entire paper from another language via AI.
Why Integrity Matters Beyond Grades
In the workforce of tomorrow, everyone will have access to AI. The value you bring won’t be in generating text, but in evaluating, curating, and directing it.
Cheating with AI denies you the opportunity to build the critical thinking muscles required to be a leader in an AI-driven world. When you bypass the struggle of writing, you bypass the process of thinking.
Value critical thinking over technical skills in 2025 reports.
The Integrity Pledge
“I pledge to use Artificial Intelligence as a tool for learning and expanding my creativity, never to deceive or misrepresent machine-generated text as my own work.”
