Overview

Illuminarty checks whether an image or a piece of text was created by an AI model rather than a human, combining several computer vision and natural language processing detectors to estimate the probability of AI generation, identify which regions of an image were most likely AI-generated, and highlight the specific passages of a text most likely written by a model. Founded in 2022 under the legal entity KI-Tech Hertig, the company states basic AI detection will always remain free to keep the tool broadly accessible, with paid tiers adding model identification, localized detection detail and API access for teams that want to integrate detection directly into their own service.

AI-detection tools of this kind report a probability rather than a certainty, and detection accuracy tends to lag behind the newest image and text generation models as those models improve, so a result should inform a decision rather than serve as definitive proof on its own, especially for a consequential decision like a plagiarism or fraud accusation. The company keeps a deliberately low public profile, with limited disclosed information about its team or funding beyond what is stated on its own site.

Free is $0 a month for basic AI image and text classification, kept free permanently by the company’s own stated policy. Basic is $10 a month, adding localized AI-region detection, AI model identification for image generators, localized text detection and API access up to 10,000 requests a day. Pro is $30 a month for the full feature set on nightly builds, 40,000 daily API requests and integration support. Enterprise is priced on request for custom detection models, unlimited API usage, a custom API server and an SLA.
