Questions like "why did you say X?" usually reveal whether a person is actually familiar with what they claim to have written. It's imperfect, certainly, and I would never recommend punishing a student based entirely on an algorithm's result, but I think I can provide a tool to drastically cut down on this sort of academic fraud.
I intend to make it very clear to customers that they should not punish students based only on information provided by my software.

If an algorithm flags someone as a possible cheat multiple times, it may be worth inspecting that person further. > I intend to make it very clear to customers that they should not punish students based only on information provided by my software. Good idea. Customers should however publicise that anti-cheating software is in use.
