Q. Is Paperpal based on ChatGPT or GPT 3.5 models?

Paperpal does not use any of the ChatGPT or OpenAI large language models. We have developed and use our own secure and proprietary suite of specialized AI, with generative AI models fully trained on scholarly data and published research articles.

Q. Will Paperpal-enhanced text pass checks for AI generated content?

It’s not necessarily bad to be flagged by AI detectors as they help ensure your writing is authentic and credible. This is why we encourage authors to take Paperpal output as a starting point and refine and rewrite AI generated text to express ideas in their own unique style and voice. That being said, AI detectors are still in the early stages of development and should be used as a reference, not an accurate assessment. For example, one check for AI detector falsely claimed the US Constitution was generated by AI!

Q. Will my Paperpal edited document be flagged as plagiarized?

It’s rare for Paperpal-edited documents or text to be flagged by plagiarism checkers, unless the original manuscript has been copied. At a sentence level, however, as rewrites suggested by Paperpal follow standard sentence construction guidelines for academic writing, there’s a small chance that a plagiarism checker for AI generated text may highlight individual sentences or phrases as resembling published literature.
