FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about HonestIQ.
How does HonestIQ differ from Turnitin or GPTZero?
+
HonestIQ goes beyond detection. While Turnitin checks for plagiarism and GPTZero scores AI probability, HonestIQ combines MIE + AIE analysis with a complete decision layer — including instructor review, student clarification, and oral defense options. Every decision is instructor-led, making outcomes defensible and fair.
Does HonestIQ make automated decisions?
+
Never. HonestIQ provides AI-powered evidence and analysis, but every decision — from confirming a concern to dismissing a flag — is made by the instructor. No automated actions are taken without explicit instructor confirmation.
What is Writing DNA / Authorship Verification?
+
Writing DNA is HonestIQ's authorship fingerprinting system. It builds a unique profile of each student's writing patterns over time — vocabulary, syntax, sentence structure, argument style — and uses this to verify whether a submission matches the student's established writing profile.
What is an Oral Defense (Virtual)?
+
When an instructor requests clarification, they can invite the student to an Oral Defense — a live virtual session where the student explains their reasoning and thought process. This gives students the opportunity to demonstrate authentic authorship before any formal action is taken.
How does the Honest Report work?
+
The Honest Report is a comprehensive evidence document generated for each flagged submission. It includes the MIE score, AIE score, Writing DNA match, Math Profile analysis, highlighted sections of concern, risk scoring rationale, and a structured evidence summary — all designed for instructor review.
Does HonestIQ integrate with our LMS?
+
Yes. HonestIQ integrates with Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, D2L Brightspace, Google Classroom, Schoology, and Microsoft Teams. Enterprise customers can also request custom integrations via our API.
Is HonestIQ GDPR / FERPA compliant?
+
Yes. HonestIQ is designed with institutional compliance in mind. We offer data residency options, GDPR-compliant data processing agreements, FERPA-aligned access controls, and full audit logs for every action taken on the platform.
