Learnaway
How it works

We read the writing process, not the prose.

Learnawaynever guesses whether text “looks like AI.” Instead it records how a response is entered and applies a transparent, rule-based engine: no AI model, no probability black box.

01

Set free & share

Type your assignment name, get a link, share it. Students open the link with no account needed.

02

Capture the process

As students write, the browser records timing-only telemetry: event types, timing deltas, and paste lengths. Never the characters.

03

Score with rules

A deterministic engine turns the telemetry into a plain-English label and explanation tags, each backed by a data point you can verify.

The signals we look at

Paste dominance

What share of the final text arrived via paste, and how big each paste was.

Typing cadence

Whether keystroke rhythm is natural and varied, or robotically uniform (a sign of transcribing).

Speed vs volume

Whether the writing time is plausible for the word count.

Late insertions

Large blocks appearing near the end with no typing before them.

Tab switching

How often the student left the submission tab.

Interaction variety

Whether substantial text was produced via just one or two events.

No single signal raises concern on its own. Multiple corroborating signals are required before a submission is flagged as high concern. This protects students who legitimately paste from their own notes or use assistive technology.

You decide how much AI is OK

Different tasks, different rules. Set the AI policy per assignment.

A reflective essay and a maths write-up don't call for the same boundaries. Choose how much AI help you're comfortable with and Learnaway adjusts which behaviours raise a flag, without ever changing the evidence it shows you.

You set the policy, per assignment

Students should write this themselves. Large pastes and machine-like drafting are surfaced early so you can check in.

  • Large paste of finished text
    Raises concern
  • Robotic, uniform typing rhythm
    Raises concern
  • A whole essay entered in minutes
    Raises concern
  • Pasting a quote from their notes
    Expected

Same engine, same evidence. You simply decide how much weight each behaviour carries for this task. Learnaway still only ever surfaces signals; you make every call.

For teachers

A triage aid for the homework you already set.

Learnaway fits the way you already work. No new workflow to learn, no student accounts to manage: just a link you share and signals you can trust.

Spend less time investigating

Triage at a glance: see which submissions deserve a closer look instead of reading every one with suspicion.

Have defensible conversations

Talk to a student with concrete facts (for example, a 600-word essay arriving in one paste), not a contestable probability score.

Be fair to every student

Style-blind by design, so your EAL and neurodivergent students aren't unfairly flagged.

Keep your professional judgement

Learnaway never decides anything. It surfaces signals; you add context, notes, and the final call.
