slop-index

Slop Index is a quality scanner for modern content. It detects the tell-tale patterns of “AI slop” and SEO filler—repetitive phrasing, template intros, hedging, buzzword stuffing, outline-shaped paragraphs, and other signals that make writing feel generic. Paste text, point it at a URL, or batch a whole sitemap; Slop Index returns a 0–100 Slop Score with a transparent breakdown and a de-slop checklist you can act on immediately.

Under the hood, Slop Index blends classical NLP with lightweight heuristics designed around today’s LLM artifacts: cliché density, glue-word ratios, repetition and n-gram loops, unnatural heading cadence, prompt residue (“Let’s break this down”), over-apologizing, and more. The goal isn’t to “detect AI” for punishment—it’s to surface low-effort patterns so teams can raise the floor on quality and ship with receipts.

Use it to gate drafts before they go live, audit legacy content, compare revisions, and keep brand voice from flattening
