THE SCAN

Signals, not proof. Read carefully and stay honest about the limits.

MODE 2 — bring your own suspect

Paste any text. The Inspector highlights the same cadence signals it knows — phrases, hedges, and templates that appear at machine frequencies.

◈ HONESTY CLAUSE — These are signals, not proof. Humans write these phrases too; machines increasingly avoid them. No detector — including this one, including the commercial ones — can certify authorship. What this instrument trains is the habit of looking. Provenance and sourcing (see the Field Guide) remain the only verdicts that hold.
