Auto-detect AI content in Google Docs and save results to Google Sheets

Auto-detect AI content in Google Docs and save results to Google Sheets

Introduction

Quickly check documents for AI-written text and store the findings in a central sheet for audit and reporting ✅

Trigger Event

A new file is created or an existing file is updated in a specific Google Drive folder. This starts the automation.

Actions

  • The document’s content and title are fetched from Google Docs.
  • The text is analyzed by an AI content detector to identify whether the overall document appears AI-generated and how confident the result is.
  • Individual sentences are separated into two lists: AI-generated vs. not AI-generated, so reviewers can focus on what needs attention.
  • If the detector says the doc is AI-generated with sufficient confidence, a new row is added to your Google Sheet with:
    • File name
    • Overall probability/confidence
    • AI-generated sentences
    • Non‑AI sentences

Benefits

  • Centralized tracking in Sheets for easy reviews and audits
  • Faster content compliance checks with clear sentence-level breakdowns
  • Less manual copying/pasting and fewer mistakes
  • Works automatically whenever docs are added or edited in the chosen folder ➜ saves hours each week
