Welcome back to another edition of HackerNoon’s Company of the Week! This series aims to give tech companies from our database the big bright spotlight they rightfully deserve. n
This week, we are excited to feature GPTZero, our favourite AI detector benchmarked as the most accurate commercial product among its competitors in North America. Co-founded by high school friends Edward Tian and Alex Cui in January 2023, GPTZero has grown to become one of the most popular and effective AI detectors with 10 million users world-wide, and 99% accuracy on RAID (an independent, third-party dataset used as a benchmark to evaluate AI detectors). This is a massive success, driven by a super lean and dynamic team of researchers, programmers, and marketers.

Human-First, Explainable AI
The ethos behind the company: building responsible AI while preserving human creativity and critical thinking. Though the numbers are great indicators of an effective product, what makes GPTZero stand out is its interpretability. In this article, written by their Head of ML, Alex Adam, shares how GPTZero is explainable to its users:
Most notable of all is that we achieve our remarkably high accuracy while also being able to say that GPTZero is the most interpretable AI detector available. This is due to our Advanced Scan and Natural Language Explanations features. Such nuance cannot be captured by benchmark metrics, but is nevertheless important to users who want to understand how a given prediction was made.
HackerNoon GPTZero: Towards AI Transparency in Tech Publishing
HackerNoon and GPTZero have partnered to bring AI transparency in publishing. This partnership not only protects the integrity of publishing in the age of AI but also ensures that writers using AI responsibly are recognized for it.
“We’re building AI transparency infrastructure into how HackerNoon publishes because publishing standards matter more than ever,” said David Smooke, HackerNoon Founder/CEO.
GPTZero’s proven AI detection technology analyzes every submission we review. With this partnership, our readers get more transparency, our editors get a reliable tool, and HackerNoon strengthens the tech stack of its publishing platform.
HackerNoon’s shaped how millions of people understand technology,” said Alex Cui, Cofounder and CTO, GPTZero.
GPTZero is excited to bring our AI detection technology to every HackerNoon article and give readers and writers a clearer view of how AI is used in online content. This collaboration adds editor-verified AI analysis beneath author bios and across article pages, supporting our mission to build the verification layer for the internet.
Human creativity FTW.
