Lunchbreak alternatives
2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- Access to proprietary detection services that require commercial partnerships (Turnitin/GPTZero/etc.)
- Polish of a production UX, scale, and multi-detector tuning performed by the vendor
- Factual-sources/citations feature and any proprietary model tuning
- Ongoing detector updates and QA across multiple third-party detectors
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Lunchbreak, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
