The interface is a text box; the product is a fine-tuned classifier. Detection quality does not come from a clever prompt. It comes from training a model on a labelled corpus and tuning it until the error rate is low enough to act on, which is months of work against a target that moves every time a new generator ships. Asking a general model "is this AI-written?" produces confident, unreliable answers, and in an academic-integrity setting that means falsely accusing real students. A one-shot build gets you the UI and none of the responsibility.

# WasItAIGenerated indie build

## Goal

Build the smallest trustworthy replacement for the core WasItAIGenerated workflow for one developer or a tiny team.

## Scope

Build a private workspace that pastes in text, asks one general model for an AI-likelihood judgement with reasoning, stores results, and exports them.

## Quick start

1. Install the documented dependencies.
2. Copy `.env.example` to `.env`.
3. Run the development command chosen during implementation.
4. Complete the acceptance checks in `BUILD_PLAN.md`.

## Honest limits

This build deliberately does not replace:
- a trained classifier and the labelled corpus behind it
- a measured false-positive rate you can quote to an institution
- detection for images, audio and video, not just text
- per-sentence highlighting instead of one document-level guess
- retraining as generators change

If those capabilities are essential, use Binoculars instead of pretending the gap is solved.

why people still pay

Institutions do not buy a verdict, they buy a defensible one. A university that flags a student needs a documented error rate, an audit trail and a vendor who will stand behind the number. That is a measurement problem, not an interface problem, and it is why every serious buyer in this category asks about false positives before features.

questions
Vibecode WasItAIGenerated

Not really. WasItAIGenerated's value is not the code: The trained classifier and its measured false-positive rate are the product. See the honest breakdown above.

How much does WasItAIGenerated cost?

WasItAIGenerated costs about $9.99/month (Unlimited Website, checked 2026-08-03), which is $119.88 per year.

What do I lose by replacing WasItAIGenerated?

Honestly: a trained classifier and the labelled corpus behind it; a measured false-positive rate you can quote to an institution; detection for images, audio and video, not just text; per-sentence highlighting instead of one document-level guess; retraining as generators change. If any of those are load-bearing for you, keep paying.

Is there an open-source alternative to WasItAIGenerated?

Yes: Binoculars (Zero-shot LLM text detection using perplexity ratios between two models.), DetectGPT (Curvature-based zero-shot detection of machine-generated text.). Using prior art is also vibecoding; the prompt is for when you want it exactly your way.
