How Unicheck became mainstream in EdTech

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Feb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Unicheck has been helping to improve the learning process for 4+ years. From day one, the Ukrainian startup has been closely following what's mainstream in EdTech and now it looks like Unicheck is slowly but surely moving into the trend-setters league. 

Last year, Unicheck landed among the finalists of the renowned EdTech award for companies improving teaching and learning ? «2018 Tech & Learning Awards of Excellence».

So, how did a young company manage to advance into the global market in such short time? Let's see how 2018 panned out for Unicheck:

- Firstly, Unicheck has won the Utah Education Network tender and was selected as an all-UEN qualified provider of software, to detect originality in student papers for the next 5 years.

- Secondly, the plagiarism checker now highlights some links as «Malicious Site» or «Explicit content». This additional protection for safe browsing through reports is just a fraction of the improvements in online and PDF similarity reports, as suggested by students and educators.

- A cloud-based LMS Populi and an award-winning learning solutions provider D2L, both committed to high standards of academic integrity, formed trusted partnership with Unicheck by employing their plagiarism checker.

- Successful release of the similarity search Add-on for Google Docs eliminated the need to switch between accounts and tools, opening multiple windows, effectively decelerating computer performance.

- In Ukraine, Unicheck joined government-level initiatives by signing the Memorandum with the Ministry of Education and Science aiming to provide the Ukrainian universities with powerful similarities detection software, to foster academic integrity principles.

- Unicheck's unique plagiarism detection software began scanning every paper submitted by University of the People, free of charge. In supporting UoP, Unicheck stays true to its mission and vision ? to improve quality and accessibility of education.

Unicheck is an online plagiarism service that checks text documents for presence of borrowed parts (matches, quotes and bibliography), from open sources and the internal database. It is used by 600+ institutions worldwide, primarily in K-12 and higher education.
