Built-in Plagiarism Checker in Zoho Writer

Hi everyone,

Even experienced writers unintentionally or unknowingly reuse phrases they've read before.

This can damage credibility as presenting someone else's ideas as your own is considered plagiarism and can have serious academic or, sometimes, even legal consequences.

Plagiarism checkers intend to spot and fix those for you before you publish.

But the problem is, most plagiarism checkers are standalone tools. They could be either expensive or force you to submit your content to third-party platforms just to run a check.

What if you could do all of this right where you write?

Zoho Writer’s built-in plagiarism checker lets you:

• Run plagiarism checks without leaving your document
• Catch accidental plagiarism instantly
• Get a detailed report showing:
   
  • Matching sources
  • Number of matching sentences
  • Overall plagiarism percentage

Zia doesn’t just look for copied or matching text. It detects different forms of plagiarism like:

• Exact matches: Flags content that appears word-for-word on other webpages.
• Paraphrased content: Identifies rephrased sentences with the same meaning.
• Word-order matches: Detects content copied from sources even if the sentence order is altered.
• Common knowledge: Ignores widely known facts to avoid false positives.
