About this site.

What this site is

AI Accusation Help is an independent guide to wrongful AI accusations, written for the student who just received the email. The eight pillar pages cover the first 72 hours, evidence collection, detector accuracy, the appeal process, Turnitin-specific defense, the verified false-positive data, the first-24-hour playbook, and your due-process rights. The Defense Assistant is a free, deterministic 5-step intake tool that produces a personalized defense plan — an evidence checklist, an appeal-letter outline, jurisdiction-specific notes, what NOT to say, and the free legal-help resources for your country.

What this site is not

Not legal advice. Academic-integrity procedures vary by institution, state, and country. Specific cases — particularly those involving visa status, scholarship terms, or expulsion — need a licensed attorney or qualified advisor. The Defense Assistant and the eight pillar pages provide information to prepare you for those conversations; they do not substitute for them.

Not affiliated with any vendor. Turnitin, GPTZero, Originality.ai, Copyleaks, and other detectors are referenced for informational purposes only. We have no commercial relationship with any of them. We do not promote, sell, or recommend any detector. We do not run ads on this site, and we do not use affiliate links.

Not a replacement for your campus resources. Your campus ombuds office, student union, student legal-aid service, and International Student Office (if applicable) are typically free and exist precisely for situations like yours. Use them first.

Editorial standard

Every number, every named case, and every percentage on this site carries its source. We checked Turnitin's documentation, Stanford's 2023 study, Vanderbilt's August 2023 announcement, the GPTZero blog, and the public court filings for every lawsuit we cite. Where evidence is contested or vendor-self-reported, we label it so. Where a claim is a verified primary source, we label it so as well. The full source list is on the sources page.

Reviewer status

We are reaching out to education-law attorneys and academic-integrity professionals (including members of the International Center for Academic Integrity) for a named reviewer. Until a reviewer is attached, the footer carries a "Reviewer pending" notice. We will not display a reviewer name unless and until a real, qualified professional has reviewed the material. If you are an education-law attorney or an academic-integrity professional and would consider reviewing this site, please email the contact address on the disclaimer page.

Who built it

This is a small independent editorial project. The site does not represent any institution and is not affiliated with any university, vendor, or legal organization. The work is sourced and presented in good faith. If you spot an error, a stale citation, or a primary source that has been updated, please write to the contact address on the disclaimer page so we can correct or revise.

How we hope you use this site

Read what is relevant to your situation. Gather your evidence. Run the Defense Assistant if it helps. Call the free resources for your jurisdiction. Take the time you need before you reply. Most cases resolve well when the student walks in prepared. Preparation is what we are here for.
