Soul Searcher // Trace

Soul Searcher // Trace is a high-fidelity browser extension designed to strip away the "uncanny valley" of digital content through a two-pronged forensic approach: Soul Detection for text and Pixel Forensics for images.Unlike standard "black box" AI detectors, this system utilizes a deterministic scoring algorithm that identifies specific stylistic fingerprints rather than relying on vague "vibe" checks.The engine executes a strict forensic-linguistics protocol that evaluates text across 12 AI Signals and 10 Human Signals to calculate a definitive "Soul Score".AI Structural Markers: The system flags markers such as "Sandwich Structures" (intro/recap cycles), "List Compulsion," and "Paragraph Uniformity".The "Slop" Filter: It specifically identifies non-ironic use of "Slop Verbs" (e.g., delve, leverage, facilitate) and "Slop Phrases" (e.g., a tapestry of, in today's rapidly evolving).Linguistic Fingerprints: Sophisticated detection includes GPT-specific "Em-dash fingerprints" and Claude-style rhetorical pivots.Human Counter-Signals: To prevent false positives, the engine subtracts points for "High Burstiness" (sentence length variance), organic typos, and "Punctuation Chaos" (like multiple exclamation marks).
