Teams that need a consistent pre-publish check across all AI-written content, regardless of which model wrote it.

Claude helps you think. Dokeo makes sure it ships.

Per Dokeo's own scoring methodology [S1], the gate is deterministic: the same draft returns the same verdict every time, which is what makes it safe to block a CI pipeline on.

  • Every FAIL names the specific check that failed and why - no black-box review.
  • 100 free scans a month, no credit card, same gate as production.

FAQ

Does Dokeo call Claude under the hood?

No. The default scoring path is fully deterministic and runs in ~5ms with no AI call. The optional one-click AI rewrite (Growth+ plans) calls GLM 5.2, not Claude.

Can I use Dokeo from inside Claude?

Yes - Dokeo ships an MCP server. From Claude Desktop or Cursor, you can call the gate without leaving the chat.

Is Dokeo biased against Claude-written content?

No. Dokeo scores content, not provenance. It checks for AI-tells (em-dashes, hedging, filler) regardless of which model produced them - including humans who write like AI.

Can Dokeo rewrite using Claude?

The one-click AI rewrite (Growth+ plans) runs on GLM 5.2, not Claude. The gate always shows the exact reason each check failed so you can also fix it yourself. In the builder you can bring your own key for Claude, GPT, or Gemini.
