Python AI detector quickstart
Send at least 150 characters for a more reliable signal. The response score ranges from 0 (more likely human-written) to 1 (more likely AI-generated); use it as evidence, not proof.
Sapling provides an SDK for this stack. The direct HTTP example below remains useful for server-side integrations; see the SDK overview for the higher-level client.

}The overall score and sentence scores use different methods and may not match exactly. Choose thresholds based on the false-positive and false-negative costs of your use case.
About Python
Python is a high-level interpreted general-purpose scripting language that ranks as one of the most popular programming languages. It is designed to be readable and uses indentation as part of its syntax. The reference implementation, CPython is written in both C and Python, which provides the performance characteristics of C for computationally expensive number-crunching tasks.
