# Author-It Claims vs Evidence

This page compares marketing claims that Author-It makes on its own website with what real G2 users say in their reviews. Each claim's source link points to the page where it appeared. Claims are rated as follows: Supported when a clear majority of the reviewers who address it back it up, Disputed when a clear majority contradict it, and Mixed when reviewers are divided. Reviews that don't mention a claim are not counted.

The evidence therefore supports the underlying capabilities but is mixed regarding the absolute claim that nothing gets duplicated or misused.
