> AI Slop Detector — Free tool to check if content is worth reading.

SlopDetector is the internet's first AI slop detection tool. Unlike traditional AI detectors that ask "Was this written by AI?", SlopDetector asks "Is this content worth reading, trusting, or sharing?" We judge content quality, not origin.

## What is AI Slop?

AI slop refers to low-quality, templated content that feels empty and performatively insightful. It's content that lacks lived experience, concrete details, and genuine substance — regardless of whether it was created by AI or humans. The term emerged in 2024 to describe the flood of generic AI-generated content online.

## How It Works

1. Paste any text into the detector
2. Get a Slop Level (High / Medium / Low / Not Slop)
3. See a human-readable explanation with highlighted evidence
4. Content is categorized using the Slop Taxonomy

## The Slop Taxonomy

We categorize slop into five recognizable patterns:

- **Generic Slop** — Templated, vague, no concrete details
- **Pseudo-Insight Slop** — Sounds deep but zero information gain
- **Fake Authority Slop** — Confident expert tone without substance
- **Wikipedia Rehash** — Rephrased encyclopedia definitions
- **Wellness Slop** — Safe, soothing, universalized self-help
