Well suited: for both professional and personal usage. You can use the free version for personal usage. Not suited: I don't find any use case or scenario where we cannot use the message path.

it is a very helpful tool. Now I can just copy and paste the text and find out if it is plagiarizing. I can use it to check my emails to avoid any embarrassment. In the future, I want to use it to check essay content in other languages.

  • Paper Rater is like a writing assistant that not only checks your grammar but also gives you comprehensive feedback on your writing.
  • I was able to use Paper Rater to check for plagiarism in mine. However, given Paper Rater's more academic approach, it offers a much more robust engine for this. For example, you will get an overall originality score and links to sources for copied material.
