Why VERITAS
What Should You Review Before Submitting Your Master's Thesis?
The extensive use of sources and specialist literature in a master's thesis can produce many legitimate textual matches. Review the sources, quotations, paraphrases and matching passages alongside the overall similarity percentage.
Recognising Quotations
Attributed quotations and translated quotations are distinguished from passages flagged for potential plagiarism review.
Word-for-Word Translations
The system can identify Romanian passages translated from English, even when the wording does not appear directly in Romanian-language sources.
Automatic Source Classification
The system automatically distinguishes scholarly publications, legislation, standards and official documentation to support more precise similarity analysis.
A Professional PDF Report
Receive a clear PDF report with similarity percentages, sources, explanations and colour-coded text.
Email Notification
The check continues in the background, and your report is sent automatically when it is complete.
Academic Similarity Checking
How Can You Use the VERITAS Report to Review Your Master's Thesis?
The report can identify sources associated with matching passages and help you review citations, paraphrases and text that needs clearer wording before you finalise your thesis.
The VERITAS report supports similarity analysis. The final academic assessment depends on the context of each passage and the rules of the institution where your thesis is submitted. The report is informational and does not constitute an official determination of plagiarism.

Checking Your Master's Thesis
How Do You Check a Master's Thesis Before Submission?
Checking your master's thesis before submission helps identify passages that resemble existing sources and need closer review. Work that draws on specialist literature may contain many legitimate matches, so examine the sources, quotations, paraphrases and context of each flagged passage.
Interpret your Similarity Report beyond the overall percentage. Properly attributed quotations, specialist terminology, common expressions and legislative text may all contribute to the score. Textual similarity does not, on its own, establish plagiarism.
What Similarity Percentage Is Acceptable for a Master's Thesis?
There is no single similarity percentage that automatically applies to every master's thesis. Requirements and checking procedures may vary between universities, faculties and degree programmes. Interpret your results against the rules of the institution where you submit your thesis and the nature of the passages identified.
