AI code detectors ranked by the programming languages the vendor names
Codequiry names twelve programming languages for its AI code detection, Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Swift, SQL and R, within a stated "65+", the most of any detector in the index, per the product page on codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026. Codeleaks names eleven on its live page (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026) and Originality.ai seven, the languages of the code test in its 5.0 release post (originality.ai, read 9 November 2026). Four of the 72 cards state code as a modality; three of them name at least one language, and the fourth, Copyleaks, states code detection with no language list. The other 38 cards state no code modality and sit in a third table with the modalities they do state.
Updated Vendor pages read 9 November 2026 for the three code cards, the Originality.ai 5.0 post re-read live the same day
Short answer
The sort is the count of programming languages the vendor names for code detection, a description of three vendor pages and not a measure of what any detector catches: Codequiry 12, Codeleaks 11 and Originality.ai 7, all read 9 November 2026. Codequiry states 65+ languages and names twelve; Codeleaks' eleven describe a product that has returned no AI verdict on code since 16 December 2025; Originality.ai's seven are the languages of a 300-sample test rather than a supported list. Copyleaks states code detection and names no language, read 9 November 2026, and is tabled apart. No indexed study has scored any detector on code, so every figure on this page is the vendor's own. No detector score should be the only evidence in a misconduct or hiring decision, on code or on prose.
Which AI code detectors name the most programming languages?
| Rank | Detector | Languages named | The languages, source and read date | Study records | Best for | Main limitation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Codequiry | 12 languages | Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Swift, SQL, R, with "38+ more" unnamed of a stated 65+ (codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026) | 0 | Computer science departments that collect code in many languages through an LMS | 12 named of a 65+ claim; checks are metered per submission; no indexed study has scored Codequiry |

One of the plan rankings in the rankings hub, beside studies by content type, which counts the records on code and other non-text types (none on code), and languages, which counts natural languages. The code use-case view reads the same four cards for one reader. The home board answers which AI code detectors name their languages?
Which AI detectors should you check first?
- Codequiry, rank 1Best for: Computer science departments that collect code in many languages through an LMS. Main limitation: 12 named of a 65+ claim; checks are metered per submission; no indexed study has scored Codequiry.
- Codeleaks, rank 2Best for: Readers who want the code product's own language list beside its December 2025 change. Main limitation: The submit endpoints return no AI verdict on source code since 16 December 2025; the page's genAI accuracy line is the text detector's.
- Originality.ai, rank 3Best for: Publishers who already scan text and want the vendor's own code test figures. Main limitation: A test sample, not a supported-language list; 113 of 150 AI samples detected (75.33% recall) and 0 of 150 human samples flagged, by the vendor.
What does each code detector name, tool by tool?

Codequiry
- Verdict
- Fits departments that collect source code in many languages and want AI code detection and peer similarity in one check.
- Value
- 12 languages named: Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Swift, SQL and R, with the page stating "65+ programming languages" and "38+ more" without naming them (codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026); code arrives by drag and drop, paste, ZIP upload or LMS import from Canvas, Moodle and Blackboard.
- Best for
- Instructors on Canvas, Moodle or Blackboard whose courses span Python, Java and C++.
- Main limitation
- Twelve names against a 65+ claim; AI detection is metered per submission (Grow includes 20 web and AI checks a month, then C$6.80 a check as displayed) and no indexed study has scored Codequiry (codequiry.com/pricing, read 9 November 2026).

Codeleaks
- Verdict
- Fits readers who want a code product's own list read beside what the product does now.
- Value
- 11 languages named on the live page: Ruby, JavaScript, CSS, Markdown, TypeScript, Python, C++, C, Java, C# and PHP (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026); the plagiarism checker's archived FAQ of 9 December 2024 adds XML, Go, Swift, Perl, Scala and RMD, which are not counted because the live page does not carry them.
- Best for
- Copyleaks platform customers scanning code for plagiarism and licence matches across the eleven languages.
- Main limitation
- The Copyleaks release notes of 16 December 2025 state that the submit endpoints no longer return an AI verdict on source code files, so the list describes plagiarism and licence scanning; the "over 99%" and "0.2% false positive rate" sentence on the page is footnoted to English text datasets and belongs to the text detector (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026).

Originality.ai
- Verdict
- Fits publishers who already scan text on the platform and want the vendor's own code figures.
- Value
- 7 languages named: Python, Java, C++, C, C#, Go and JavaScript, the languages of a 300-sample test on DroidCollection (150 human, 150 AI) in the Originality.ai 5.0 post, where the vendor reports 87.67% overall accuracy, 75.33% AI recall, 100% human specificity and an 85.93% AI-class F1, read live 9 November 2026 because the card held no language list for code (originality.ai).
- Best for
- Content teams whose code review runs on the same account as their text scans.
- Main limitation
- The seven are a test sample, not a supported-language statement, and the figures are the vendor's own, on 300 samples; the post calls the code results "promising" but "still lacking compared to long-form text". None of the seven indexed records on the card scored code.
How we ranked
- Field sorted
- Count of programming languages the vendor names for code detection on a page recorded on the card, or in a vendor test it reports; headline counts and names on archived pages the live page dropped are printed and not counted
- Direction
- Higher first
- Tie rule
- More study records first, then name
- Qualification
- A card whose modalities list code and whose pages name at least one language; a code card naming none is listed apart, and cards with no code modality are listed with the modalities they state
- Qualified
- 3 of 72 detectors
Field sorted: the code language count field on each card, written on 9 November 2026 for the cards whose modalities list code, from the input limits and product fields read on 9 November 2026 and, for Originality.ai, from the 5.0 release post re-read live on 9 November 2026 because the card held no language list for code. A language counts when the vendor names it on a page recorded on the card as a language its code detection accepts or was tested on; a count the vendor states without names ("65+", "38+ more") is printed and not counted; a name on an archived page that the live page no longer carries is printed and not counted (Codeleaks' six). A card qualifies when it states code as a modality and names at least one language; a card that states code and names none (Copyleaks) is tabled apart; a card with no code modality is listed with the modalities it does state. Direction: more languages rank higher. Tie rule: more study records first, then product name; no tie arises among the three. 3 of 72 qualify. Full rules: methodology page. The page says which vendor names the most languages and never which code detector works best, because no indexed study has scored one.
Why numbers differ between sources
The three vendors name languages for three different reasons. Codequiry's list is an intake statement, the file types the checker accepts, so it runs to twelve names and a headline of 65+ (codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026). Codeleaks' list belongs to a plagiarism and licence scanner that once also returned an AI verdict; the live page keeps the heading "Source Code Detection" and eleven names, the archived FAQ of 9 December 2024 names seventeen, and the release note of 16 December 2025 withdrew the AI verdict on code (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026), so the eleven describe scanning, not AI detection. Originality.ai's seven are the languages of a benchmark sample, named because the vendor reported results on them, and the post states no supported-language list (originality.ai, read 9 November 2026). Copyleaks' product page names code as a modality and an enterprise feature without a language (copyleaks.com, read 9 November 2026), which is why the Copyleaks card and the Codeleaks card carry different fields for one company. The languages ranking counts natural languages and places Codequiry and Codeleaks at null for that reason, as each card's language note records. All read 9 November 2026; the Updated line is the date the page last changed.
How a detector treats code it was not built for, and lists, tables and references beside it, is a separate question from which languages it names: the bullet points and code question, added 9 November 2026, lists the 10 cards that state a non-prose or code limit and the 0 cards scored on code in any record.
What the language counts leave out
A named language says the vendor accepts files in it, not that the detector was tested on it. Codequiry's twelve names sit inside a claim of 65+ and the page names no sample, no accuracy figure and no false positive rate for any language (codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026). Codeleaks' eleven describe what the platform scans for plagiarism and licence matches; the AI verdict on source code was withdrawn from the submit endpoints on 16 December 2025, and the only accuracy sentence on the page is the text detector's (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026). Originality.ai's seven come with figures, 113 of 150 AI samples detected and 0 of 150 human samples flagged, but on 300 samples the vendor chose and scored (originality.ai, read 9 November 2026). The studies by content type ranking shows the code row at zero records: no outside study in the index has scored a detector on code in any language. The code use-case view sets the four cards beside the reader who needs them.
Questions about AI code detectors and programming languages
Which AI code detector names the most programming languages?
Codequiry, with twelve named of a stated 65+: Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, C#, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Swift, SQL and R (codequiry.com, read 9 November 2026). Codeleaks names eleven and Originality.ai seven, read the same day.
Which AI code detectors cover Python, Java and C++?
All three ranked cards name the three: Codequiry and Originality.ai name Python, Java and C++, and Codeleaks names Python, Java and C++ among its eleven, per the pages read 9 November 2026. Copyleaks states code detection with no language named.
Has any study tested an AI code detector?
No. None of the 35 indexed records scored a detector on source code, and the studies by content type ranking shows zero records in its code row at index version 2026.11.13. Weber-Wulff 2023 had computer code available and left it out of its tests (Weber-Wulff 2023).
Does Codeleaks still detect AI-written code?
Not through the API submit endpoints: the Copyleaks release notes of 16 December 2025 state that the properties.aiGeneratedText feature no longer supports source code files, while the live Codeleaks page keeps its Source Code Detection heading for plagiarism and licence scanning (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026). The eleven languages are counted as the page prints them.
What did Originality.ai report on code?
On 300 DroidCollection samples across Python, Java, C++, C, C#, Go and JavaScript: 87.67% overall accuracy, 113 of 150 AI samples detected (75.33% recall), 0 of 150 human samples flagged and an 85.93% AI-class F1, in the vendor's 5.0 release post read 9 November 2026 (originality.ai). The vendor scored its own test.
Why is Copyleaks not ranked when its card states code?
Because the product page names code as a modality and offers source code detection for enterprise without naming a programming language (copyleaks.com, read 9 November 2026). The language list belongs to the Codeleaks product and sits on the Codeleaks card.
How are the code checks priced?
Codequiry meters AI detection per submission, 20 web and AI checks a month on Grow then C$6.80 a check as displayed (codequiry.com/pricing, read 9 November 2026); Codeleaks meters code in tokens, 250 tokens per credit on the Copyleaks plans (copyleaks.com/codeleaks, read 9 November 2026); Originality.ai scans code on its text credits, 1 credit per 100 words on the 5.0 model (originality.ai/pricing, read 8 November 2026). The API pricing ranking sorts the text rates.
How often is this ranking updated?
The ranking was created on 9 November 2026 from pages read 9 November 2026 and changes whenever a code vendor's page recorded on the card adds or drops a named language, or a card adds code to its modalities. The next scheduled recheck of every card's fields is 8 December 2026 (methodology).
