jev-ai-detector

Lightweight Chrome extension that gives an AI-like score for selected webpage text using Jev, framed as an experimental signal.

Browser extensionprototype

Overview

Jev AI Detector is a small Chrome extension: select text on a webpage, right-click or press a shortcut, and Jev returns an AI-like score indicating how strongly the text resembles AI-generated writing. It needs no local server; the user pastes a TypeSafe key into the extension options, and the service worker calls api.typesafe.ai directly.

The README is careful on two points. First, storing a key in an extension is fine for a personal demo but not a sound architecture for a public extension, since whoever controls the extension can read the key; it recommends a dedicated, revocable, limited key. Second, the score is not a reliable probability that text was AI-generated, because human and AI writing overlap heavily and editing or translation complicate attribution, so it should be treated as a stylistic signal rather than evidence of authorship.

What the decision model decides

How it works

  1. Select text on a page
  2. Trigger the context menu or shortcut
  3. Extension sends the text to Jev
  4. Display the AI-like score inline

Strengths

  • Inline, quick signal without leaving the page
  • No server component

Caveats

  • Not reliable evidence of AI authorship, per the README
  • API key stored in extension storage
  • Unpacked install only

Getting started

Load the extension/ folder unpacked in chrome://extensions, then paste a TypeSafe key in Extension options.

Frequently asked questions

What does the extension decide?

An AI-like score for selected text.

Can it prove text was AI-written?

No. The README says the score is an experimental stylistic signal, not evidence.

Is my key safe?

It is stored locally and sent only to api.typesafe.ai, but the README advises a limited, revocable key.
