AI Humanizer Benchmark

The detector panel

Every humanized output is scored by these seven commercial AI detectors, each weighted equally, ordered here from hardest to easiest to beat this cycle. The bar is the mean human-likelihood the detector assigned across all 363 outputs: lower means stricter. Each detector page ranks all humanizers against that detector alone.
