Frequently asked questions

Winston AI uses a proprietary model trained on millions of human and AI examples to identify patterns typical of large language models. While it provides a high degree of confidence through a percentage score, no AI detector is perfect. The agent uses these scores as a signal rather than a final verdict. We recommend setting a threshold, such as 70 percent, where the agent flags the content for a human to review. This ensures that false positives do not lead to unfair accusations, while still catching the vast majority of synthetic text. The system evolves as new models like GPT 4 or Claude 3 are released to maintain detection accuracy.
Winston AI is designed to detect a wide range of models including those from OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic. It looks for linguistic markers and predictability patterns common across most generative AI. However, detection becomes harder when users employ advanced prompting techniques or use human editing tools to rewrite the AI output. The agent can help by running multiple scans over time or comparing the suspicious text to known writing styles of the author. Because the AI landscape changes weekly, the tool is updated frequently to recognize the latest output styles from the newest model versions.
Winston AI processes the text to provide the detection score and plagiarism report. Depending on your account settings and plan, the text may be cached to allow you to retrieve the report later without paying for a second scan. Within Ceven, you can control whether the agent archives these results in your own database or simply passes the score through to your CMS. For users with strict privacy requirements, the agent can be configured to delete the source text from the workflow context immediately after the scan is complete and the score is recorded.
Yes, Winston AI operates on a credit system where each word scanned consumes a specific amount of credits. One of the key quirks of the API is that plagiarism checks typically cost more credits per word than simple AI detection. If your account runs out of credits, the API will return a 402 payment required error, which will cause the Ceven workflow to pause and notify the administrator. To avoid this, we recommend setting up an alert in Ceven that monitors your remaining credit balance and notifies you when you drop below a certain threshold.
AI detection looks for the statistical probability that a sequence of words was generated by a machine based on patterns. Plagiarism detection is an entirely different process that crawls the live web and internal databases to find exact or near exact matches of text strings. A document can be 100 percent human written but still be 100 percent plagiarized from a website. Conversely, a document can be entirely AI generated but original in the sense that it does not exist anywhere else on the web. The Ceven agent runs both checks to provide a complete authenticity profile.
Yes, Winston AI includes image detection capabilities that analyze the pixels and metadata of an image to find artifacts common in AI generated art. The Ceven agent can be triggered by an image upload in your workflow, send the file to Winston AI, and then either approve the image for use or flag it as synthetic. This is particularly useful for news organizations or stock photo sites that need to ensure the images they publish are authentic photographs. The agent can automatically add a disclaimer to any image that returns a high AI probability score.
The agent uses the text compare tool to analyze two specific pieces of text and return a similarity percentage. This is different from a general plagiarism scan because it only looks at the two provided inputs rather than the whole internet. This is ideal for checking if a student copied from a peer or if a writer reused content from an old article. The agent can pull two different versions of a document from your cloud storage, run the comparison, and highlight the specific paragraphs that overlap, providing a clear view of the similarity.
Because Ceven acts as the orchestration layer, Winston AI can work with any CMS that Ceven connects to. The agent pulls the text from your CMS, sends it to Winston AI for analysis, and then writes the resulting score or report back into a custom field in your CMS. This means you do not need a native plugin for your specific platform. Whether you use WordPress, Contentful, or a custom built system, the agent handles the data transfer and ensures the authenticity data is placed exactly where your editors need to see it.
