Turnitin
Turnitin is a web-based plagiarism detection service provided by the American company Turnitin.
Founded in 1998, it is used as a service (SaaS) to check documents submitted with the database and content of other websites in order to identify plagiarism. The results can identify similarities with existing sources and can also be used in formative assessment to help students learn to avoid plagiarism and improve their writing
