Outstanding Design Award at UMD Info Challenge
Project Context
With AI-generated content becoming more common, detecting it in long, structured documents—like essays or legal contracts—has become a major challenge. Existing tools often fall short, offering vague scores without explaining which parts are AI-written or why.
In March 2025, I joined the AI Recognition Tool Design Challenge during the University of Maryland Info Challenge, a week-long competition focused on designing a solution to this problem.
Our goal: build a tool that could accurately and transparently detect AI content in complex documents.
As a two-person team, we used a rapid design sprint to research, ideate, prototype, and test our solution—earning the Outstanding Design Award for its innovation and usability.
