Pruneify FAQ

Answers to common questions about Pruneify's LLM response detector and formatter — how it works, what it stores, and how to use it safely.

This FAQ covers how to humanize ai text, how to use the built-in ai text detector and ai writing detector as an ai generated content checker, and how to detect ai generated text or check if text is ai generated using Pruneify's transparent ai generated text detection heuristics.

If you are new to AI writing detection, this FAQ is a good place to start before you run any ai text detector or ai generated text detector on your own drafts.

How it works

How does Pruneify detect AI-like text?

Pruneify uses transparent heuristic rules: templated LLM phrases (e.g. 'As an AI'), sentence burstiness, vocabulary richness, and tone patterns. These are combined into a 0–100 score with a breakdown you can inspect.

Does Pruneify send my text to a server?

No. Pruneify runs entirely in your browser. Detection, normalization, and formatting are pure client-side logic; your text is never uploaded or logged on a server.

What kinds of text can I analyze?

Any plain text: essays, emails, tickets, documentation, chat transcripts, and more. Analysis happens locally. Files up to 10 MB are supported.

How should I interpret the AI-likeness score?

The score is a heuristic estimate, not proof of authorship. It reflects how strongly the text matches common LLM patterns given your sensitivity settings.

What happens when I change sensitivity or presets?

Sensitivity and presets adjust thresholds. Higher sensitivity flags borderline patterns more often; lower sensitivity is more conservative.

Can I run analysis automatically when I paste?

Currently you click 'Run analysis' to start. Auto-run on paste is planned for a future release.

File and input limits

What is the maximum file size?

Files up to 10 MB are supported. Very long documents may take a few seconds to process.

What file formats can I upload?

Plain text (.txt), JSON (.json), and Markdown (.md). Paste works for any text.

Is there a character limit?

No hard limit. Very long texts may affect performance; analysis typically completes in under 2 seconds for typical inputs.

Security and privacy

Where is my data stored?

Nowhere. Your text is processed in memory and never leaves your device. Settings and preferences are stored in your browser only.

Is Pruneify GDPR compliant?

Yes. No personal data is collected or transmitted. See our dedicated GDPR page for details.

Does Pruneify use cookies?

Only essential session cookies. No tracking or analytics cookies.

Can I use Pruneify offline?

Yes. Install as a PWA and use it offline once the app is cached.

Features and export

Can I export results?

Yes. Download TXT, JSON, CSV, or Markdown. Exports are generated locally in your browser.

What export formats are available?

Plain text (.txt), JSON (original + normalized + formatted), CSV, and Markdown.

Can I undo an analysis?

Yes. Use 'Undo last' in the Format preview panel. History stores the last 20 actions per input.

Does Pruneify work on mobile and tablets?

Yes. The interface is responsive and works in modern mobile browsers.

Support and automation

How do I reset or clear my data?

Remove individual responses from the Input panel. Clear settings or session data via your browser's storage for this site.

Can I automate Pruneify with code?

The detection and formatting logic runs in the browser. For programmatic use, see the developer guide and code snippet on the tool page.
