- Worth noticing
- Its six levels distinguish proofreading, research or structure help, partial drafting, human review, and near-unedited generation.
Field notes
The selection guide asks whether AI wrote any wording and whether it was used along the way; if more than one answer fits, it advises choosing the higher level. The generator offers English, German, Spanish, and French, plus compact badge, footer box, or both. The page recommends plain HTML with inline CSS and SVG, and also lists web-component and metadata formats.
