StealthWriter AI detector

Vendor AiVantage LLC Official site stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector How this card is sourced

AIDI-D-0056

Updated ·

StealthWriter's AI detector scans up to 500 words a check without an account and gives free accounts 10 AI scans a day with 1,000 words per input (stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector and stealthwriter.ai/pricing, read 10 November 2026). The vendor is AiVantage LLC of 30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, Wyoming, whose Terms and Conditions, last updated 5 September 2026, are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming (stealthwriter.ai/about and stealthwriter.ai/terms, read 10 November 2026). The detector is the second tab of a product whose first tab is a humanizer: the about page describes "AI detection features so customers can review content before and after humanizing it", and DAMAGE 2025 tested StealthWriter.AI as one of 19 humanizers, not as a detector (arXiv 2501.03437, Table 9, read 10 November 2026). The card records the detector's own published values in the detector index, and how this card is sourced explains why the humanizer test stays out of the studies list.

OwnershipStealthWriter, a service of AiVantage LLC (site footer, copyright 2026); about page: StealthWriter is a service of AiVantage LLC. Owner: AiVantage LLC, 30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, US. The Terms and Conditions (last updated 5 September 2026) are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming. The company's main product is the StealthWriter AI humanizer (Ghost 5.2 Mini, Ghost 5.2 Pro and Ghost Legacy models); the detector is the second tab of the same product and the about page describes it as AI detection features so customers can review content before and after humanizing it. DAMAGE 2025 tested StealthWriter.AI as one of 19 humanizers (tier L2, degraded but faithful), not as a detector.stealthwriter.ai/about

The detector page describes the output, not the targets. A scan shows "how likely your text is to be flagged as AI-generated" with "sentence-level feedback", and the FAQ answers "What does an AI detector do?" with: "An AI detector examines patterns in writing and estimates how likely the text is to be flagged as AI-generated. StealthWriter provides an overall result and sentence-level feedback to help you decide which parts to review" (stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector, read 10 November 2026). No generator is named for the detector, so the generators field is empty and the card is unranked in the generator models named ranking. The site FAQ names models for the humanizer, "ChatGPT (GPT-4, GPT-4o), Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, Copilot, Jasper, and more", in answer to what kind of AI text it can humanize (stealthwriter.ai/faq, read 10 November 2026); the card quotes that list here and does not count it.

Two detector versions are offered. The scan box carries a "Scan with" selector with V2 as the default and V1 beside it, and every plan on the pricing page lists "AI detector (V1 & V2)" and "AI deep scan" (stealthwriter.ai/pricing, read 10 November 2026). No model page, changelog entry or method description explains the difference between the two versions. Language is stated for the humanizer only: the FAQ says StealthWriter "supports many languages beyond English" and names "Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, and more" in answer to a humanizer question, so the detector's language count is left empty and the card is unranked in the languages ranking.

Input is paste only. The demo box counts words to 500, the page "recommends at least 100 words and complete sentences for a more useful result" and warns that "results for shorter passages may be less accurate", which is advice rather than a stated minimum, so the minimum input field is empty (stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector, read 10 November 2026). No upload format exists and no API: the FAQ answers the API question with "Not at this time. StealthWriter is a web-only tool", adds that "there is no public API" and that "An API may be offered in the future" (stealthwriter.ai/faq, read 10 November 2026). The nearest cards are Undetectable AI and Phrasly, two other humanizer vendors whose detectors the index records on the same terms.

The free tier has two layers. The no-account demo: "Paste up to 500 words and select Scan for AI to see your results on this page. Daily demo limits apply", with no figure for the daily limit (stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector, read 10 November 2026). The Free plan at $0: "AI detector (V1 & V2)", "AI deep scan", "10 humanizations/day", "10 AI scans/day", "1,000 words per input" and the Ghost 5.2 Mini humanizer model (stealthwriter.ai/pricing, read 10 November 2026). The card records 10 checks a day in the free checks per day ranking, the no-account demo on the no-account view, and no monthly word figure, so StealthWriter sits in the second table of the free tiers ranking.

The pricing page states "All prices are in US dollars (USD)" and shows a Monthly and Yearly switch labelled "Save 17%"; the monthly prices are in the page text and the yearly prices come from the plan data embedded in the page's script, which divides each yearly price by 12 for the display (stealthwriter.ai/pricing, read 10 November 2026).

Every paid tier pairs its scan count with the same number of humanizations a day, and the page's one-line summary of the plans is about the humanizer models: "Free includes Ghost 5.2 Mini. Paid plans unlock Ghost 5.2 Pro and Legacy" (stealthwriter.ai/pricing, read 10 November 2026). The 5,000 words per input on paid plans is the figure StealthWriter carries into the maximum input per check ranking, a word figure stated by the vendor rather than one converted from characters.

Retention is the field where StealthWriter is clearest. The Privacy Policy, last updated 5 September 2026, lists among the data it collects "Text you submit for AI processing (humanization or detection). We do not store this text", and its Data Retention section states: "Content submitted for AI processing (humanization or detection) is not stored at all. It is classified by a moderation tool and then either rejected or processed. We do not use submitted text to train models" (stealthwriter.ai/privacy, read 10 November 2026). The card records zero days, the reading the index gave Sightengine's "deleted once it has been processed" and GPTKit's "immediately removed", and StealthWriter joins the cards at zero in the data retention ranking. Billing runs through Paddle or Stripe, and the policy says the company does "not store your full payment information".

What the vendor claims

No accuracy rate is published. Detector page: An AI detection score is an estimate, not proof of authorship. FAQ: Human writing can be flagged as AI, and AI-generated writing can go undetected. A score is an estimate, not proof of authorship.
stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector, read

StealthWriter publishes no accuracy figure and no false positive rate for its detector, so it has no row in the false positive ranking and no claim for the claim versus evidence ranking to pair. What the page states instead is a limit: "An AI detection score is an estimate, not proof of authorship", "It does not verify the author or establish which writing tools they used", and "Avoid using a detector score as the sole basis for academic or employment decisions" (stealthwriter.ai/ai-detector, read 10 November 2026). The FAQ repeats it: "Human writing can be flagged as AI, and AI-generated writing can go undetected. A score is an estimate, not proof of authorship."

On rewritten text the product's purpose runs the other way, and the vendor says so. The humanizer FAQ asks "Does humanizing guarantee a particular AI detector score?" and answers "No. Different detectors can give different results, and no rewrite guarantees a particular score" (stealthwriter.ai/humanizer, read 10 November 2026), and the terms state that StealthWriter "does not guarantee that content generated by the tool will be scored as human-written by AI detectors or plagiarism-checking software" (stealthwriter.ai/terms, read 10 November 2026). The disclaimer page adds that results "may vary based on the input text, selected settings, language, detector methodology, and updates made by third-party AI detection tools" (stealthwriter.ai/disclaimer, read 10 November 2026). The card records no statement that the detector catches paraphrased or humanized text.

What independent studies found

No record in the studies index tested the StealthWriter detector. One record tested the company's other product: DAMAGE 2025 placed StealthWriter.AI in tier L2, "degraded but faithful", among the 19 humanizers it ran against GPTZero, Binoculars, RADAR and two Pangram Labs models, and reports that GPTZero's true positive rate on the humanized essays fell from 99.73% to 60.04% and Binoculars' from 94.15% to 28.23% at a fixed 5% false positive rate across all 19 tools together (arXiv 2501.03437, Tables 3 and 9, read 10 November 2026). The paper prints no per-humanizer detection rate and no result for StealthWriter's own detector, so the record is named here and feeds no field on this card.

Where StealthWriter appears in the index

StealthWriter qualifies for three stated-value rankings, read 10 November 2026 in the data file: data retention at zero days on the policy's "not stored at all", free checks per day at 10 on the Free plan, and maximum input per check at 5,000 words on paid plans. It qualifies for the no-account view on the 500-word demo, and its "not stored at all" clause is the kind of statement the question on which detectors let you delete your data sets beside the policies that keep text. It is absent from every study ranking and from the language, generator, file type, API and claim gap rankings, which need values the vendor does not publish. The detector beside a humanizer is a pattern it shares with Undetectable AI and Monica. Every detector card on the register shows the same fourteen fields, so a detector that publishes limits and no accuracy can be read in the same columns as the detectors that publish accuracy and no limits.
