Why choose Viper?

The Turnitin alternative you need

Protect yourself from accidental plagiarism

Running your document through a plagiarism scanner will reassure you that your work does not contain plagiarism - this usually means making sure that other authors' notes are not mixed in with your own and that you have not forgotten to include any citations for direct quotations. Viper is perfect both for checking your document's plagiarism percentage and helping you to reduce and remove accidental plagiarism before it's too late! Make sure you're informed about your document before submission and don't risk losing marks on a perfectly good essay just because of a missing reference.

Incredible Speed and Great Support

Viper isn't just an alternative free plagiarism scanner - it's also faster than Turnitin, Writecheck, and pretty much any other plagiarism checker available. Scans are blazingly fast, so you'll be reading your report in seconds! You are also provided with dedicated support, meaning we're on hand to answer any queries you might have about the app.

Students

Every student will have been through the scary process of submitting their work to Turnitin without knowing if they could be accused of plagiarism. Most plagiarism is accidental and can be avoided simply by having a deeper understanding and knowledge of your work before you submit it! Unlike Turnitin and WriteCheck, Viper gives you, the student, complete control and power over your work.

With Viper, you can scan your early drafts of work and monitor your plagiarism score as you go along. You’ll be able to keep a close eye out for potential accidental plagiarism and can make sure you reference correctly, helping you improve your essay, assignment or coursework. With direct source matching, you’ll get a direct link to the exact source of matching content – not just a general idea like you get with Turnitin and WriteCheck.

Viper is particularly great for your dissertation, which is the most important piece of work you'll ever submit. Unlike Turnitin, you can check this multiple times and make sure you didn't include any self-plagiarism by scanning it against your past pieces of work (if you have used Viper to scan them).
