Terms of use
These terms of use cover reading, quoting and linking to pages on aidetectorindex.com, the limits of the general information the site publishes about software products, and how to reach the editors. By reading the site you accept them.
What the site provides
AI Detector Index publishes general information about AI detection software: what each product states it covers, what it costs as checked on a stated date, and what published studies report about it. The information is compiled from vendor pages and published studies, each named and dated beside the figure it supports. It is a reference, not advice.
Not legal, academic or employment advice
Nothing on this site is legal advice, academic integrity advice, employment advice or a recommendation to buy, adopt or reject any product. A detector's card or ranking position describes published fields and results; it is not a judgment about any piece of writing or any person. No detector score should be the only evidence in a misconduct, hiring or publishing decision. Decisions of that kind should rest on your institution's or organisation's own process and, where needed, on qualified professional advice.
Accuracy and changes
The editors source and date every figure and correct errors on the day they are confirmed, as set out in the editorial policy. Vendors change prices, limits and models without notice, and studies describe the versions and texts they tested. The date beside each figure shows when it was read, and the site makes no promise that a figure remains current after that date. The site is provided as it is, without warranty of any kind, and the editors are not liable for decisions made on the basis of its pages.
Quoting and linking
You may quote from this site with attribution to AI Detector Index and a link to the page quoted. Short excerpts, the figures with their source and date, and the ranking tables with their qualification counts may be reproduced for commentary, teaching, journalism and research. Reproducing whole pages, or presenting the site's tables as your own work, is not permitted. Linking to any page is welcome and needs no permission.
Vendor names and trademarks
Product and company names on this site belong to their owners and are used to identify the products described. Their appearance in the index does not imply that any vendor endorses the site or that the site endorses any vendor.
Links to other sites
The site links to vendor pages, pricing pages and study publishers. Those sites have their own terms, and the editors are not responsible for their content or for changes to it after the date a figure was read.
Corrections
If a figure on this site is wrong, email editor@aidetectorindex.com with the page, the field and your source URL. The correction route is described on the contact page, and every accepted change is recorded in the corrections log.
Changes to these terms
When these terms change, the "Updated" date at the top moves and the change is described beneath this heading.
The privacy policy describes what the site handles when you read it; the about page describes the editors; the editorial policy sets the sourcing rules; and the contact page gives the correction route.
