What an essay checker covers
An essay checker combines an originality scan with writing-quality feedback. CopyCheck Online runs the originality scan locally (similarity %, flagged matches, source URLs) and, with the AI tools, adds grammar checking and rewrite suggestions.
Because the core scan runs in your browser, your essay draft stays private — no upload, no risk of your work landing in a public corpus.
