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 guides cover the first 72 hours, the first 24 hours after a professor's email, evidence collection, Google Docs version history as evidence, detector accuracy with the verified false-positive data, the appeal process, Turnitin-specific defense, and your due-process rights. The Defense File builder is a free, deterministic 5-step intake tool that produces a personalized defense file — an evidence checklist, an appeal-letter outline, jurisdiction-specific notes, what NOT to say, and the free legal-help resources for your country.

Who runs this site

Melih Koray, Founder & Editor

Melih Koray founded AI Accusation Help and edits it. He is a designer and web-visibility specialist with more than 20 years in web, design and SEO, including eight-plus years at McKinsey & Company as a Senior Graphic Specialist. Today he is a Senior Designer and Web Optimization Specialist, and he has trained professionals in web design and SEO since 2008.

On this site he built the detector-accuracy dataset and the evidence guides, collects and audits the sources behind them, and edits the content.

He is not a lawyer or an academic-integrity officer. Legal and procedural statements on this site rely on the sources cited with them, and no education-law attorney or academic-integrity professional reviews the site yet. Read them as a summary of those sources, not as legal advice.

Corrections and newer sources are welcome through the contact page or at contact@aiaccusationhelp.com. You can also find Melih Koray on LinkedIn.

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 File builder and the eight guides 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 write through the contact page.

How the site is funded

AI Accusation Help runs no advertising, uses no affiliate links, takes no referral fees, and does not sell user data. It has no commercial relationship, partnership, or sponsorship with any AI-detector vendor, and it does not represent any institution: it is not affiliated with any university, vendor, or legal organization. If a way to support the project is ever added, for example donations to keep the site online, it will be disclosed prominently and will not affect the editorial content.

How we hope you use this site

Read what is relevant to your situation. Gather your evidence. Build your Defense File 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.
