We’ve been VERY busy with PlagPointer lately 👀
Just in time for assignment season, we’ve rolled out a pile of improvements and new features, including:
✅ Improved cross-language plagiarism detection
✅ Source-code plagiarism checking
✅ Text-manipulation detection
✅ Include or exclude specific websites
✅ More exclusions for things like references, headings and code comments
✅ Clearer AI detection limits
✅ Better background processing
✅ A much better My Scans area
✅ Easier registration and login
✅ Improved support tools
✅ 21-day refunds on unused credits
We’ve also cleaned up the advanced settings so you can still do a simple scan without being buried in options.
A lot of these changes came directly from things users told us were confusing, annoying or not working as smoothly as they should.
You can read the full update here:

And if there’s something else you’d like us to improve, tell us - several of the changes above happened because someone did.
It’s getting to that point in the academic year when assignments start piling up – so we’ve been busy too. We’ve added new PlagPointer features, improved the checker and made the site much easier to use, ready for the busy months ahead. Here’s what we’ve been up to in no particular order...
