Plagiarism Service FAQs
Answers to common questions about similarity scores, matched sources, exclusions, document types, turnaround, confidentiality, and report use.
What does the Plagiarism Service check?
The service checks a submitted document for matching or closely similar text against available web, publication, academic, student-paper, book, conference, dissertation, database, and institutional-repository content where supported by the selected similarity workflow.
Is a similarity percentage the same as plagiarism?
No. A similarity percentage shows how much text matches other sources. A match can be legitimate, such as a quotation, reference, standard phrase, or correctly cited material. The report should be interpreted in context rather than treated as an automatic plagiarism verdict.
Can quotes and the bibliography be excluded?
Yes. The report workflow can apply exclusions such as quoted text, bibliography or references, small matches, and selected sources when those options are appropriate to the document and requested settings.
What will I receive with the report?
You receive the overall similarity percentage, a source-category breakdown, matched-source information, highlighted matching text, exclusion and filter information, and a downloadable report or report file where available.
Can you check a thesis or dissertation?
Yes. The service is suitable for theses, dissertations, research papers, journal manuscripts, conference papers, and other academic or professional documents that need a similarity review before submission or publication.
Can I use the service before journal submission?
Yes. A similarity review can be requested before journal submission, conference submission, thesis or dissertation submission, or final publication so you can inspect matched text and revise where appropriate.
What similarity percentage is acceptable?
There is no single universal percentage that guarantees acceptance. Institutions, journals, departments, and publishers may apply different rules. The threshold table on this page is an example interpretation guide, not a universal acceptance standard.
Do you rewrite matched passages automatically?
The core Plagiarism Service focuses on detecting and reporting similarity. If you also need language revision or editing, that should be requested separately so the scope remains clear.
What file formats are supported?
The service workflow supports common document formats shown on this page, including DOC/DOCX, PDF, RTF, TXT, ODT, and PPT/PPTX. File suitability can also depend on document structure and report-processing requirements.
How long does the plagiarism check take?
The infographic-supplied turnaround options are Standard 24–48 hours, Priority 12–24 hours, and Express 6–12 hours. Delivery depends on document scope, word count, selected options, and service depth.
How is pricing calculated?
Pricing is quoted according to factors such as word count, page count, turnaround requirement, number of files, and additional report or review requirements. Pricing is confirmed after scope review.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?
The service workflow is designed around secure transfer, limited-access handling, and confidentiality-focused document processing. If you have a specific NDA or institutional confidentiality requirement, include it in your enquiry so it can be reviewed before processing.
