Case Study: Bucknell University achieves transparent, cost-effective AI detection with Copyleaks

Bucknell University lowers academic integrity costs with Copyleaks

Bucknell University, a private liberal arts college, faced a significant challenge when its faculty struggled to verify the authenticity of student work during the rise of generative AI. Their previous solution, Turnitin, was no longer meeting their needs. The university needed a cost-effective partner that could provide transparent AI detection and a more robust feature set. They turned to the vendor Copyleaks for its plagiarism and AI content detection services.

By implementing Copyleaks and integrating it with their Moodle LMS, Bucknell University found a solution. Copyleaks provided detailed, actionable data through its AI detection scan results, moving beyond simple percentage scores to offer clear explanations. This empowered faculty with greater transparency and a useful teacher scan tool. The results included a significant reduction in overhead costs and the provision of a superior toolset for ensuring academic integrity, all while operating within a flat budget.
