Description

Dupli Checker presents itself as a plagiarism checker. It is a free tool, but each search is limited to 1,000 characters). It does not focus on any specific users or purposes. There is no information about who operates it available at the website, we were also not able to receive such information when we asked directly via email. The website offers a variety of tools such as a paraphrasing tool and many search engine optimization (SEO) and other website management tools. Additionally, according to the statement found on their web site, they “have delivered over 1,000,000 pages of high-quality content which attracts large amounts of traffic to [their] client’s websites” (Dupli Checker, 2019), so that it appears that they also offer a copywriting service.

Pros & Cons

  • Users do not need to sign in to the system, they can use it for free.
  • Dupli Checker system has very low results in both single and multi source coverage, and usability results are low as well.
  • Users can download result reports, but similar text parts are not highlighted, and tested text in Latvian language is not readable, because many characters are replaced with „?“.
  • Maximum 1000 words allowed per search.
  • The system returned errors for invalid document type although the user tried to upload several types of accepted document types (see one case in screenshots).
