sucodo

... is a NW.js-application written mainly in JavaScript that checks for plagiarisms in texts. The application runs locally as a desktop app and does not send any data to any server except to search engines. The search engines will get chunks of the original data each one at a time. The checked texts are not cached in any way on a server. If there is caching, it will be locally on the users machine and under his/her control. The results any analysis are not shared with anyone.

WARNING: This tool is highly experimental. It uses the Google search engine at the moment. Prepare to solve a lot of captchas when you have decent size text. The captchas will be in a popup.
