Overview of Content at Scale
Content at Scale was launched in September 2022 as a go-to resource for content freelancers, publishers, marketers, and agencies. The company now has over 40 employees, more than 2.5 thousand customers, and generates 50 million-plus words each month.
The leading AI detector is trained on a large amount of data found online and across multiple large language models (LLMs), including essays, blog posts, and Wikipedia entries. Content at Scale works by identifying the patterns and clues left behind by AI models like ChatGPT and Gemini.
While Content at Scale claimed to have a 98% accuracy rate, the reliability of the tool is questionable. Reddit users found that the tool delivers unpredictable results, with some scans showing accurate results while other times giving false positives. Many commenters agreed that the tool cannot be trusted to give accurate results.
Features of Content at Scale and How It Works
Content at Scale has many features that make it a popular AI detector among content creators. Some of these include:
Simplified Scoring
While many AI detectors use a sliding scale percentage scoring system that determines the likelihood of AI from 0 to 100%, Content at Scale uses a simpler approach. Its scoring system gives you an overall “yes,” “no,” or “maybe” output.
Built-In Editor
Content at Scale has built-in editing tools to allow users to modify their content without leaving the platform. In addition to standard editing options, users can add hyperlinks and images to their writing.
Free Scanning
You don’t need to sign up or pay for a subscription to start scanning content. Content at Scale offers a free version that allows users to scan up to 2,500 characters.
Ask AIMEE
Content at Scale’s ‘Ask AIMEE’ feature helps content creators improve their text. The tool can fix spelling and grammar errors, make sentences longer or shorter, change the tone, and perform other fixes. Most of these additional features require a subscription.
Unlimited AI Detection Scans
The premium version of the AI detector allows users to perform unlimited scans. Up to 50,000 characters are permitted for each scan and virtually any type of written content can be checked for AI.
Reliability of Content at Scale Tested
We are now preparing some sample texts to run a series of tests to determine if Content at Scale could really differentiate between AI-generated and human-written content.
Sample Text Generation & Preparation
ChatGPT
We began the test by asking ChatGPT to write a simple 100-word paragraph on a general topic.
Gemini
We then asked Gemini to create a paragraph using the same prompt.
Human-Written Test #1
Using the same prompt as the previous tests, we wrote a paragraph without any AI assistance.
Human-Written Test #2
We then created a second human-written test to see if Content at Scale would identify it as human writing.
Putting Content at Scale into the Test
Once we had all four test texts prepared, we ran each through the Content at Scale AI detector. These were our results:
ChatGPT Content Against Content at Scale
Content at Scale failed to detect AI in our ChatGPT paragraph. Aside from one sentence identified as reading “very robotic,” the remaining text passed as human.
Gemini Content Against Content at Scale
Once again, Content at Scale did not determine that the Gemini-generated text was AI. Just one sentence was identified as possible AI, but the overall text passed as human.
Human-Written Content #1 Against Content at Scale
Our first human-written test had mixed results. Content at Scale gave it a score of “Hard to Tell.” While most of the paragraph was highlighted green, meaning human-written, there were two sentences that the AI detector determined to be potential AI.
Human-Written Content #2 Against Content at Scale
Our second human-written test passed as human. Content at Scale determined all but one sentence appeared human-written.
Content at Scale AI Detection Testing Result
Overall, the Content at Scale AI detector did not deliver reliable results. Just one out of the four tests was accurate. Here we’ve compiled the results of our tests:
- ChatGPT Test
- Passed as Human
- Unreliable
- Gemini Test
- Passed as Human
- Unreliable
- Human-Written Test #1
- Hard to Tell
- Unreliable
- Human-Written Test #2
- Passed as Human
- Accurate
Aside from one human-written test that passed as human, the other three tests had inaccurate results. Both the ChatGPT and Gemini texts were identified as human-written, while portions of the first human-written test were identified as AI-generated.
Pricing of Content at Scale
The Content at Scale AI detector offers a free version that allows users to scan an unlimited number of texts. However, the free version only allows up to 2,500 characters per scan.
If you want to increase this limit, you’ll need to upgrade to the Unlimited AI Detector plan for $49 per month. With this plan, users can get unlimited AI detection, 25,000 undetectable rewrite credits, premium editing tools, bulk undetectable rewrites, and other perks.
In summary, Content at Scale is an affordable solution for users who only need to check short texts for AI. However, the tool can become quite costly if you need to increase this limit and purchase the Unlimited plan.
Conclusion
Content at Scale is a convenient tool for users who want to quickly distinguish between AI-generated and human-written content. However, it’s important to note that this AI detector is not always reliable, and results are inconsistent at best.
To ensure that your text looks 100% human-like and doesn’t get flagged by AI, consider using an AI humanizer like HIX Bypass.
