In the Russian-speaking segment, the most popular solutions for checking uniqueness are eTXT Anti-plagiarism and. The development of the latter, by the way, has already been discontinued, and its replacement is the online service of the same name.
The only program of this kind that has not lost its relevance is eTXT Antiplagiarism. But more convenient and effective for many users are web tools that allow you to correctly check the uniqueness of any text.
