Slop Detector (slop-detect.com)

Properties

category: quality-scorer
maturity: emerging
approach: Deterministic, open-source scoring engine that drives a real Chromium browser to evaluate landing pages against 27 weighted CSS/design patterns (fonts, gradient hero text, glassmorphism, etc.) associated with AI-generated web design, producing separate design-slop, copy-slop, system-alignment, and AEO/agent-readability scores.
access: open-source
owns: Scores websites and landing pages for AI-generated design and copy conventions; ships as a free web app, CLI, and MCP server, maintained by an individual developer (GitHub: ravidsrk/slop-detect), MIT-licensed.
distinctFrom: Unlike text-focused slop scorers (SlopDetector, Sapling) or media-authenticity detectors, this tool evaluates web-page design and copy for AI-generated conventions rather than analyzing prose text or images directly; unlike closed vendor detectors it is MIT-licensed and self-hostable via CLI/MCP server.

notes: Confirmed verbatim on-page (footer tagline). Research foundation credited to Adrian Krebs' 'The design-slop study' (adriankrebs.ch). Scanning engine is free and MIT-licensed forever per the site; only monitoring add-ons (daily re-scans, design-token drift detection) sit behind email registration. Not previously tracked.
