What it is

Overview

Quetext addresses the growing challenge of maintaining writing integrity in an era where both plagiarism and AI-generated content are increasingly prevalent. Students, teachers, and professionals need reliable tools to verify the originality and authenticity of written work, whether checking their own content before submission or evaluating work from others.

Quetext is essentially a plagiarism detection service that compares your text against existing databases and websites. While they market 'DeepSearch technology,' this is fundamentally a search and comparison tool rather than AI that creates original content. You'd get similar plagiarism checking by manually searching key phrases in Google, though Quetext automates and streamlines this process.

Quetext as a product, is absolutely excellent! It helped me to complete and submit a 499 page PhD dissertation successfully. And I will most definitely purchase this program again, whenever needed in the future. I was also highly impressed by John from the Support Team, who responded promptly to my request with fantastic assistance. Incredibly greatful to everyone at Quetext and I will certainly do my best to promote this program amongst my colleagues! Sincerest Thanks, Sumari (M.S.) Gildenhuy

I was suspicious of the plagarism score as I had some direct quotes in my work, and my refernces didn't flag up either. Did a test run where I copy and pasted whole chunks of several articles and it didn't flag them at all. Maybe the data fed to the machine is for a specific area if academia, but was not useful for me (Allied health- Speech and Language). Cancelled my subscription, don't bother getting one

One of my clients today questioned me by showing me one of my content Qutext reports with a 52% copy score. The article was published 1 month ago. At the time of submission, I provided the report he asked for with a 100% plagiarism-free by using the tool he recommended then. Now 1 month later he is telling me that my content is copied and that's why it isn't indexed yet by checking it with Qutext. What can I do now?

The deepsearch technology of the tool is very impressive. The plagiarism results are mostly accurate with the links at our disposal to see where exactly the sentances match with our content. The report feature is another good thing about the tool, which allows us to generate professional looking reports, detailing every plagiarized sentences with their links. The tool is expensive though and it takes a lot of time generate results, but that's okay since it uses deepsearch techology. The new paid

Ok, so I cancelled my subscription with Quetext after 24 hours of using it. But the "Cancel Subscription" button still keeps popping up. By the way, Quetext doesn't refund even if, after a few hours, you become an unsatisfied customer. Your money is gone. I thought "Everything in Free" is in the Essential plan. I'm sure I still have a few words left of AI Content Detector in the free plan. It's all gone when I upgraded to Essential. I should have watched out for the trick. So I emailed support a

Dear Quetext Support Team, I am writing to report another issue (the first one I expressed on the 2nd of May), which is a serious billing issue with my account. I have been incorrectly charged twice within one week: May 2nd, 2024: $4.99 charge for AI Detection plan May 9th, 2024: Additional $20.99 charge On May 7th, I attempted to cancel the subscription but received an error message stating: "To cancel subscription you need to have an active subscription first."

Lies to get you in, then spams your email, there is no free checker to check their services, whatever you try to check comes up to advise you that 1 page is free, in fact it isnt, you have to buy a plan, bold but bad marketing move, which is a shame as I really liked the look of this software but you are losing your customer base at point one, maybe be more honest and your customer base will grow quicker.

11:59 23/6/2025 I was offered 99p for 3 days and it charged me £1.04. The plagiarism checker stated 22%, but then never gave me a report. I then recieved an error code. "ERROR CODE OF 404 - Page not found: /tools/null" I also had to put my paragraph through three times for it to allow me to click the other buttons. 00:07am 24/06/2025 UPDATE: I just received a quick email from someone at the company who has offered to try and fix this for me? So fingers crossed!

Compared to other tools like duplichecker, smallSeo tools, and plagiarism checkerX, the results are quite promising and trustworthy which is the best thing about Quetext. Sometimes it hangs up and then I have to paste or upload the while text again. Also, the results on android phone and PC differ many a times. I have been using Quetext for about 2 years now and I find it a lot better than Copyscape which only showed plagiarism in my own written content. But Quetext is very promising.

Utilizzo quetext per evitare il plagio o la stretta somiglianza involontaria con altri testi. Quetext è facile da usare ed è preciso. Inoltre, è utile per citare le fonti. L'interfaccia è intuitiva e restituisce report utili. Utile anche per il riconoscimento di testo scritto da AI.

Frequently asked

What is Quetext?

Quetext is a comprehensive writing integrity platform that scans text for both plagiarism and AI-generated content using proprietary DeepSearch technology.

What writing tools does Quetext include besides plagiarism detection?

Beyond plagiarism and AI detection, Quetext includes an AI Summarizer for condensing lengthy documents, an AI Humanizer that rewrites AI-generated content to sound more natural, a Grammar Checker for spelling and grammar errors, and a Citation Generator for academic and professional writing.
