What is "AI slop"?

Slop is the recognizable texture of low-effort AI text: cliché phrases ("delve", "a testament to", "key takeaways"), formulaic constructions ("It's not X. It's Y."), emoji-decorated bullets, machine typography, and the hidden characters that ride along in every paste. Individually each is small; together they give a text an unmistakable synthetic flavor.

How the grade works

TextWash counts every fingerprint it finds — hidden Unicode characters, smart punctuation, lookalike letters, Markdown residue, structural constructions and 140+ cliché phrases — and computes the density per 1,000 characters. A+ means zero fingerprints; F means the text is saturated. Robotically uniform sentence lengths lower the grade one step. Unlike an "AI detector," the grade comes with receipts: the report lists every finding by name and code point, and the x-ray view shows exactly where each one sits.

Fix it in one click

The wash removes every technical fingerprint (the style clichés stay flagged for a human rewrite — your voice is the fix, not another model's). Everything runs in your browser: no upload, no account, no limits.

FAQ

Is this the same as an AI detector?

No. Detectors output a probability verdict from a black-box model. The slop grade is transparent: it counts specific, named fingerprints — characters, punctuation and phrases you can inspect one by one in the report — and converts the density to a letter grade.

What makes a text grade F?

Fifteen or more fingerprints per 1,000 characters — heavy cliché use, machine typography and hidden characters together. Most hand-typed text grades A+ or A; text pasted straight from a chatbot typically lands C to F.

Can I improve my grade?

Yes. One click removes all technical fingerprints; the remaining flagged phrases and uniform sentence rhythm are style issues the report points out for you to rewrite in your own voice.
