History
The service was launched in 2004 and is headquartered in Oakland, California. It is marketed to "publishers, news agencies, corporations, law firms, and government agencies".[1] As of 2007, its clients included the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and the World Bank.[2]
While iThenticate is best known as a plagiarism detection service, collaborative efforts with the user base have created a number of new use cases. The most prominent aside from plagiarism detection include intellectual property protection and document-versus-document(s) analysis. iThenticate also allows for integration with content management systems (CMSs) and manuscript tracking systems (MTSs).[citation needed]
CrossCheck Powered by iThenticate is a re-branded version of the iThenticate service developed in partnership with CrossRef, a community of notable scientific, technical, and medical publishers. CrossCheck received the Association for Learned and Professional Society Publishers Award for Publishing Innovation in 2008.[3]
Following a 2004 high-profile case in the Hartford Courant, the newspaper subscribed to iThenticate.[4] The company then extended invitations to other newspapers, but stated that it would maintain the confidentiality of these subscribers.[4]
The company made headlines on July 2, 2006, when the New York Post reported that iThenticate software had found several passages of plagiarism in Ann Coulter's book, Godless.[5] Both Coulter's syndicator and her publisher rejected these claims, describing them as irresponsible and stating that minimal text matching of common subjects does not equal plagiarism.[6]
