Improper reference plagiarism
Paraphrase plagiarism
Our scoring system offers several features to help make your document the absolute best it can be. With all of these features, as well as color-coding to alert you to any problems, you’ll be able to quickly edit and correct your document with ease.
Similarity score
All reports are provided with a similarity score. This score shows how many similarities exist in your documents.
Plagiarism risk score
This score shows you the risk of plagiarism in your document. The more similarities are detected, the bigger the risk of plagiarism. Our research has shown that this feature detects the risk of plagiarism by 94%. This is but one of many reasons why users love our system.
Paraphrase
This score alerts you to the number of paraphrases in your document. A high paraphrase score may signal plagiarism. Be wary of a high paraphrasing score.
Improper citations
This score shows how many improper citations exist in your document. While it’s acceptable to use citations, they should not comprise the majority of your document. It’s also wise to verify the sources of any citations used, in order to avoid the risk of plagiarism.
Matches
This score shows the amount of “matched” parts in your document.
Any kind of plagiarism found in your document will be highlighted for your review and correction. Paraphrases in orange, improper quotations in purple, and proper quotations in green. Even better, our plagiarism checker system will help you edit and correct your document.
Our plagiarism checker will place links to the sources on the matched parts in your document. These links allow you to correct any improper quotations, words, and paraphrases in your document. If you are confident that the quotations are placed properly in your document, a simple verification on your part will allow you to proceed with your document review and download.
Some citations may be recognized as plagiarism by teachers, so it is important to check your paper for correct citation in order to avoid any unpleasant surprises and negative consequences. Our plagiarism checker will let you know which citations are proper – they will be marked green. It will also mark purple all citations recognizable as plagiarism, so you will know to edit them. This is a unique Plag.ug feature – no other plagiarism detection system offers such a feature.
Our system’s state-of-the-art technology detects not only copy & paste plagiarism, but also paraphrase plagiarism. If you receive a high paraphrase score, it’s important to carefully and thoroughly review your document to avoid the risk of plagiarism.
Even if your document is written in several languages, our multilingual system has no trouble detecting plagiarism. That’s why our plagiarism checker system is recognized as the national plagiarism detection system in several countries.
