How do I get alerted when a Turnitin similarity score crosses my threshold?
WebRun checks new Turnitin similarity reports every morning for scores above the threshold you set. It books a follow up meeting on Google Calendar and alerts your academic integrity office in Microsoft Teams, so a high score gets a timely, human review rather than sitting unaddressed in a report queue.
- High similarity scores get a scheduled review, not a delayed one
- The integrity office is alerted without checking Turnitin manually
- No determination is made before a human reviews the report
Built for academic integrity offices · college instructors · department chairs · writing program administrators

Questions, answered
Does a high score mean the student did something wrong?
No. WebRun only flags scores above your threshold for a human review. A high score alone is never treated as a finding.
Will it contact the student directly?
No. It books a meeting slot and alerts your integrity office. Any conversation with the student is handled by the instructor or office.
What threshold triggers the alert?
Whatever similarity percentage you set, so the alert reflects your institution's actual policy, not a generic cutoff.
