Reception

Plagiarism Today praised the website for having a "rich API" and being "feature rich", but stated that the website could be "confusing and intimidating to use" for those inexperienced with copyrighting.{{cite web |url=http://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2009/11/20/5-copyright-verification-services-compared/ |title=5 Copyright Verification Services Compared |date=November 20, 2009}}
