Slop or Not vs Phrasly: AI Detector (2026)

Phrasly's detector is a free add-on to its real product: an AI humanizer built to help text slip past checks like this one. Use it for a quick free read, but for a check that isn't built by the same company selling the workaround, Slop or Not runs a standalone on-device detector on iPhone or Mac.

Phrasly is an AI humanizer: its main job is rewriting AI-generated text so it reads as human-written. It bundles a free no-sign-up AI detector for browsers, but that detector is secondary to the humanizing service. Slop or Not is a detection tool, not a rewriter. Native iPhone and Mac checks run on-device to flag AI-generated text and images.

Detector is free with no sign-up; the AI humanizer is the paid product.

Privacy

Native checks stay on the iPhone or Mac and never send submitted text or images to a third-party AI provider. Online checks run on Numen's own Apple hardware, and submissions are deleted after processing.

Its detector page says submitted content is deleted when you close the tab, is not stored on its servers, and is not used to train its models

Main limitation

On-device privacy requires iPhone or Mac; browser checks run on Numen's private Mac server, not on-device

Built as an AI humanizer to help text pass AI detectors; the bundled detector is a secondary feature

Where your text & images go

With Phrasly, your submitted text is processed to generate a detection score, and its detector page says content is not stored on its servers. Its AI detector page says content is deleted when you close the tab and is not used to train its models; its general privacy policy covers account and device data, and the business API keeps temporary billing copies for up to 30 days. See the Phrasly privacy policy for details. Slop or Not keeps native checks on your iPhone or Mac, and online checks run on Numen's own Apple hardware and are deleted after processing.

Where Slop or Not Fits

Slop or Not has no humanizer to sell — it's a detector built to catch AI writing, not help it slip past one.

  • Slop or Not runs its own detection models, so no third-party AI provider sees your text or images. Native checks run on the Apple Neural Engine; online checks run on Numen's self-hosted Apple hardware, and submissions are deleted after processing.
  • Free daily checks in the iPhone and Mac app and in the free online checker. Pro removes the daily cap, and native checks have no per-document word cap.

How They Compare by Workflow

Slop or Not is not the right answer for every workflow — pick the tool whose strongest workflow matches the check you need to run.

Slop or Not

Use it for people who want native Apple checks or the free online checker for text, images, and provenance clues.

Phrasly

Use it for AI humanizing with a free no-sign-up bundled detector.

Does Slop or Not rewrite or humanize text?

More From Numen

AI can now fake a profile photo or wrap a scam in a link that looks safe to tap. Numen builds the apps that put you back in charge: spot AI-generated text and images with Slop or Not, run the best open-source models uncensored and private with Private LLM, and strip trackers from links and QR codes before they follow you with Clean Links.

One belief runs through all three: your data belongs to you, and no one else.
