AI usage policy

AI usage policy for ethical academic support

My Perfect Writing uses AI to create structured academic reports that help UK students understand briefs, review drafts, decode tutor feedback, and check authenticity signals. AI supports the process, but the student remains the author and human judgement stays central.

  • Human-designed report frameworks
  • Student remains the author
  • University policy comes first
  • No assignment outsourcing

Our AI-use principles

AI supports understanding

AI is used to organise academic guidance into structured reports, not to produce submission-ready assignments.

Humans set the rules

Our report templates, public content, support standards, and policy language are designed and reviewed by humans.

Students stay in control

Reports provide insight, signals, and next steps. Students decide what to change and remain responsible for the final work.

University rules come first

Students must follow their own assessment brief, module guidance, and institution’s AI-use policy.

How My Perfect Writing uses AI

AI is used inside My Perfect Writing to help convert academic material into readable, structured guidance. The purpose is clarity: helping students understand what a brief asks, how a draft reads, what tutor feedback means, and where authenticity risks may need review.

  1. Student provides academic material

    A student may add an assignment brief, draft, tutor feedback, or related instructions.

  2. AI analyses within a structured framework

    The system uses human-designed report formats to identify task focus, criteria, evidence use, structure, feedback priorities, or authenticity signals.

  3. Report output is organised for learning

    The report is presented as guidance, not as replacement assignment content.

  4. Student reviews and decides

    The student uses the report to make their own academic decisions and improvements.

  5. Human support can be requested

    Where automated guidance is not enough, students can request human explanation or tutor-style review.

Where human supervision is embedded

Human oversight is not treated as an afterthought. It is built into the way My Perfect Writing presents AI-assisted academic support.

Human-reviewed website and policy content

Public-facing content, policy language, homepage claims, and academic-integrity messaging are reviewed by humans before publication.

Human-designed report structures

The reports are not open-ended chatbot conversations. They are organised around academic stages, marking criteria, feedback interpretation, and responsible-use boundaries.

Human support for unclear cases

If a student does not understand a report, feedback comment, or next step, human support is available to explain the guidance.

Human graded review where requested

Where a student chooses a human graded review, the review should focus on criteria, clarity, evidence, structure, and improvement direction rather than writing the assignment for them.

Ongoing review of safeguards

The platform can refine templates, wording, and support rules over time to reduce misleading, unsafe, or academically inappropriate outputs.

Human supervision is embedded through design, review, support, and escalation — not by pretending automated reports are manually marked unless a human review is requested.

What AI can help with — and what it must not replace

Appropriate AI-assisted support

  • Explaining an assignment brief in clearer language
  • Identifying command words and likely marking priorities
  • Highlighting weak structure, unclear argument, or missing evidence
  • Translating tutor feedback into next steps
  • Flagging possible authenticity or writing-pattern risks
  • Helping students plan their own revision decisions

AI must not replace

  • The student’s own argument
  • The student’s source judgement
  • The student’s critical analysis
  • The student’s final wording and authorship
  • The student’s responsibility to follow university rules
  • The student’s ability to explain the submitted work

Your university’s AI policy comes first

AI-use rules vary across universities, modules, and assessment types. Some assessments may allow AI as a study aid. Others may restrict its use or require a declaration. My Perfect Writing is designed to support understanding and review, but students are responsible for checking the rules that apply to their own work.

Before using AI support, check:

  • Does the assessment brief mention AI?
  • Does your university require an AI-use declaration?
  • Are you using the report as guidance, not replacement content?
  • Can you explain the final work in your own words?
  • Have you cited sources honestly and followed referencing rules?
  • Does your final submission reflect your own learning?

This page is guidance about how My Perfect Writing uses AI. It is not legal advice or a substitute for your university’s academic-integrity policy.

AI output has limits

AI-assisted reports can be helpful, but they should not be treated as perfect, final, or authoritative.

AI can misunderstand context

If a brief, rubric, or feedback comment is incomplete, the report may miss important details.

AI can overstate confidence

A clear-sounding report is still guidance. Students should compare it with their brief, rubric, and tutor instructions.

AI may not know local rules

University policies, module rules, and marker expectations can differ.

Authenticity signals are not guarantees

AI/authenticity checks show areas to review, not promises about university systems or outcomes.

Human judgement remains essential

Students should use reports as learning support and make their own final decisions.

Documents, privacy, and responsible handling

Students may upload or paste academic material so the tools can generate a relevant report. My Perfect Writing should handle that material only for the purpose of providing the requested service, support, and platform improvement where permitted by the privacy policy. See our Privacy Policy for details about how personal data and submitted content are handled.

Upload only what is needed
Remove unnecessary personal details
Do not submit restricted third-party material
Read the Privacy Policy before using paid services

Do not upload material you are not allowed to share. Do not upload confidential third-party data, private medical records, unpublished research data, or sensitive material unless you have the right to do so.

How authenticity signals should be used

AI and authenticity checks are designed to highlight writing-pattern risks that may deserve review before submission. They should not be used to hide misconduct or to chase a guaranteed detection outcome. A responsible student uses these signals to return to the work, check the evidence, strengthen their own voice, and make sure the final submission reflects their understanding.

Review the signal

Look at the highlighted area and ask whether it sounds like your own reasoning.

Strengthen your own voice

Add judgement, source explanation, and clear links back to the question.

Follow your rules

If your institution requires declaration of AI use, follow that instruction.

When to ask for human support

AI-assisted guidance is useful for structure and clarity, but some academic questions need human explanation. Students should consider human support when they are unsure how to interpret feedback, confused about marking criteria, or unable to turn a report into practical revision decisions.

  • Feedback is confusing
  • Criteria are unclear
  • Draft needs deeper explanation
  • You need help choosing the right tool
  • You want tutor-style review rather than automated guidance
