POST /v2/plagiarism

Winston AI's plagiarism API is a powerful tool designed to check text for plagiarism by scouring the internet for similar content. It queries multiple websites and compares the input text with the content found on these websites. This can be particularly useful in academic settings, content creation, legal scenarios or any other situation where originality of content is required.

Request body

textstring required

The text to be scanned. This is required unless you provide a website or file. Each request must contain at least 100 characters and no more than 120,000 characters.

filestring

A publicly accessible URL to a file to scan. The file must be publicly available online (not a local file path) so our API can access it. The file must be in plain .pdf, .doc or .docx format. The file has priority over the text, so if you give a text and a file, it's the file that will be scanned.

websitestring

A website URL to scan. If you supply a website, the API will fetch the content of the website and scan it. The website must be publicly accessible. It's important to know that the website has priority over the text and the file, so if you give a text, a file and a website, it's the website that will be scanned.

excluded_sourcesstring[]

An array of sources to exclude from the scan. The excluded sources won't be taken into account for the plagiarism scan score. Sources can either be a domain name like example.com or a url like https://example.com. If you specify a domain name, the API will exclude all the urls belonging to that domain and all subdomains. Sources are case-sensitive.

languagestring

2 letter language code. Default: auto.

If you put 'auto', the API will automatically detect the language of the text.
