# Verity Suite Provenance Pro — AI vs Human Authorship Detector

> Verity Suite Provenance Pro — AI vs Human Authorship Detector is a paid API for AI agents from suite.veritylayer.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.15/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Analyzes a passage of text and returns a calibrated verdict on whether it was written by an AI or a human, with supporting signals, limitations, and an optional signed receipt.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability verity-suite-provenance-pro-ai-vs-human-authorship-detector-04533d25 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether this passage was written by a human or AI — 'The quarterly results exceeded expectations primarily due to strong demand in the APAC region' — and tell me how confident you are and what signals drove the verdict?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a calibrated, fail-closed AI authorship verdict with explicit reasoning and optional cryptographic receipts for auditability. Prefer it over generic AI detectors when you need a machine-readable probability score, structured limitation disclosures, or a signed provenance receipt for compliance and audit trails. Especially well-suited for agent pipelines that must verify content integrity at inference time and pay per call rather than maintaining a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Text too short or content-free — insufficient signal, returns 'uncertain' verdict
- Adversarially steered or heavily paraphrased text may degrade accuracy — noted in limitations field
- Translated or domain-convergent text (e.g. legal boilerplate) may produce unreliable scores
- Input exceeds 2000 character limit — validation error
- Malformed or missing 'text' field — schema validation failure
- Signing not configured — receipt field returns null

## How this service works

The trust fabric for AI agents — calibrated, fail-closed services agents pay per call.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with: a verdict enum ('likely_ai', 'likely_human', or 'uncertain'), a numeric ai_probability score, a non-empty list of concrete text-grounded reasons supporting the verdict, a limitations list explaining why the estimate may be wrong, and optionally an Ed25519-signed VerityLayer receipt for downstream verification. 'uncertain' is the fail-closed default when signals are weak or mixed.
