  "account": "This article discusses the importance of humanizing API output before it is shipped. The Python code provided is a checker that analyzes Gemini API responses for robotic phrasing and assigns a score based on several signals. These signals include the presence of stock phrases, uniform sentence lengths, repeated openers, and markdown leakage in plain text fields. If the score exceeds a certain threshold, the checker fails the build or routes the text to a review queue. The article also compares five free rewrite tools that can fix the flagged text.",
  "summary": "Updated October 2026. Disclosure: I'm on the UnAIMyText team; it's #3 in the tool list below. The checker is plain Python with no dependencies beyond the Gemini SDK, so take it and adapt it. A teammate shipped a batch of Gemini-generated product descriptions to staging last sprint. QA didn't file a bug. Marketing did, with a screenshot of eleven consecutive cards that each opened with \"Elevate…",
