The draft discusses the relationship between evidence and interpretation. It then considers how research questions shape an argument.
Illustrative example, not an actual report or vendor interface. Highlights distinguish source excerpts, not severity. Similarity is not a plagiarism verdict.
How to Use the Plagiarism Tool
Three steps from upload to a fully actionable report.
Upload Your Document
Submit your paper in PDF, DOCX, DOC, or TXT format. No account needed: just your email address for receiving the report.
PlagAware Scans About 70B Public Sources
The tool compares your document against about 70 billion publicly available texts, according to PlagAware. It flags exact matches and many lightly reworded passages.
Get Your Detailed Report
Receive a PDF report in about 15 minutes with every flagged passage highlighted and linked directly to the matching source. Highlight colors only tell the sources apart.
What Sets It Apart
Compare source coverage, report detail, and the limits of the scan before choosing a tool.
About 70 Billion Public Sources
According to PlagAware, the index covers about 70 billion publicly available texts: websites, open-access publications, and other freely accessible content. Paywalled journals and non-public databases aren't included.
Built for Your Own Pre-Check
PlagAware offers licenses for universities and schools, including a Moodle integration. We offer it as a pay-per-scan pre-check for individual students. Your own institution may use a different system, so treat the report as a way to find gaps before you submit.
Actionable PDF Report
Every flagged passage includes the matching source URL so you can review each finding, update citations, or rephrase problematic text before you submit your final version.
Reworded Passages
The tool goes beyond keyword matching. It often catches lightly reworded passages and groups them under the matching source. Heavily rewritten text is hard for any checker, so review your matches.
Documents in Other Languages
You can upload documents in German and other languages. Translations are hard for any checker, and PlagAware doesn't document cross-language matching, so check translated sources yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
PlagAware searches about 70 billion publicly available texts, according to PlagAware. It often catches lightly reworded passages, not just exact word matches, and produces a detailed, source-linked PDF report, not merely a percentage number. It has no access to paywalled or subscription journals.
Not necessarily. Universities choose their own software, and each system searches different sources. Use our PlagAware report as a pre-check, and ask your institution which software it uses.
With our Combo Check ($0.39/page), you get both plagiarism detection and AI content detection in a single report. The AI check measures AI-typical wording patterns, not authorship probability. It can make errors and does not prove that a particular model or a human wrote the text. Visit our AI Checker page for more details.
No plagiarism checker is fully accurate. PlagAware is strongest on copied web text and weaker on heavily reworded passages and paywalled sources. In the 2020 TeSToP study of 15 systems, it landed in the same coverage band as Turnitin, PlagScan, and StrikePlagiarism, and no system found all of the planted plagiarism. Review the matches yourself and dismiss false positives from properly cited passages.
Yes. You can upload documents in German and other languages, and they're compared against publicly available sources. Translated plagiarism is hard for any checker, and PlagAware doesn't document cross-language matching, so check translated sources yourself.
