Copyleaks

Copyleaks is an advanced plagiarism detection tool designed to ensure the originality of academic work. As instructors, maintaining academic integrity is crucial, and Copyleaks provides the technology to help you uphold these standards with ease and accuracy.

What is Copyleaks?

Copyleaks leverages cutting-edge AI technology to detect similarities between submitted texts and a vast database of sources. It helps you identify potential plagiarism by comparing student submissions against billions of web pages, scholarly articles, and academic papers. The platform provides detailed similarity reports, enabling you to evaluate the originality of the content.

Get Started

You can enable Copyleaks Plagiarism Detection as part of a new Canvas assignment. Copyleaks is enabled on a per-assignment basis in Canvas. Copyleaks uses your user role for authentication and uses your Canvas account to create and manage assignments.

Timing of Generating Similarity Reports

The time it takes to generate a similarity report can vary based on the length and complexity of the document being analyzed. Typically:

  • Short documents (1-5 pages): Reports are generated within a few minutes.
  • Medium-length documents (6-20 pages): Reports are usually ready within 10-20 minutes.
  • Long documents (21+ pages): Reports may take up to an hour or more, depending on the length and the number of sources to compare.

Once the report is ready, you will receive a notification, and you can review the detailed analysis directly on the platform.
