AI Writing Detection Settings

The account settings page allows you to change the default options set at account creation.

  1. To begin customizing your Turnitin account settings, click the Edit icon alongside the account (or subaccount) you wish to edit.
  2. Select Edit account settings.


  3. AI writing is enabled by default.
    1. If it has been disabled in the past, select the checkbox to turn it on for your instructors.

    2. If the setting is grayed out, it has been disabled by a top-level parent account and cannot be enabled.

The AI writing setting is controlled by the top-level administrator account. Disabling the setting from the top-level account will disable AI writing access for all associated sub-accounts. When enabled, sub-accounts can edit the setting as required.
