Description from store
Em-dash Page Analyzer scans the main content of any webpage and measures how often the em-dash character (—, Unicode U+2014) is used. The extension extracts the article body, counts characters, words, sentences, and em-dashes, then calculates ratios such as em-dashes per sentence, per 1,000 words, and the percentage of sentences containing at least one em-dash.
Why does this matter? Em-dashes are often overused in automatically generated text. Popular AI writing tools such as ChatGPT, and others sometimes produce unusual punctuation patterns compared with human authors. This extension provides a simple heuristic that may flag text as “AI-like” if em-dash usage exceeds configurable thresholds. It is not proof, but it gives an extra signal for style analysis.
