    How this works

    Plain-English method

    Stylometry describes how a sample is written. It is useful as a layered signal and as a before/after comparison tool, but it is not courtroom authorship attribution.

    Mechanism and scoring

    The free fingerprint uses normalized feature extraction over tokens and sentences: coefficient of variation, unique-word ratio, function-word ratio, punctuation density, sentence-start diversity, repetition density, and complexity.

    Boundaries

    This is one deterministic signal, not a verdict.

    What it catches

    • Sentence-length rhythm
    • Lexical diversity
    • Function-word density
    • Punctuation profile
    • Repetition pressure

    What it misses

    • Proof of authorship
    • AI-generation verdicts
    • Truth, sourcing, or hallucination

    Core dimensions

    • Sentence rhythm variance
    • Lexical diversity
    • Function-word density
    • Punctuation profile
    • Sentence-start diversity
    • Repetition pressure
    • Readability complexity
    How it fits the layered approach

    This is one signal in a layered stack.

    Single-method detectors are too easy to overtrust. Stylometric Fingerprint is useful when it changes routing: allow, revise, human_review, or reject. It should be layered with specificity, provenance, pattern pressure, Unicode sanitation, media provenance, and paid Deep Scan when the decision matters.

    score_stylometric_fingerprint is available through local MCP with no LLM cost, and through the remote MCP endpoint with free unauthenticated rate limits. See all detection methodologies and the dedicated methodology page for the deepest treatment of this signal.
