What is the Behavioral Analytics Score?

The Behavioral Analytics Score (BAS) measures the quality of typing behavior to distinguish between natural human input and potentially artificial or automated responses. It helps detect answers generated by AI bots, scripts, or copy-paste actions—enhancing the reliability and authenticity of survey data.

High-level checks performed

  • Checks for unusually fast typing that is inconsistent with manual human input.
  • Checks for copy-&-paste patterns (e.g., large blocks inserted with minimal keystroke events).
  • Checks for highly uniform or repetitive keystroke rhythms that differ from typical human variation.
  • Where instrumented, checks for behaviour metadata (e.g., pause durations between keystrokes, editing patterns) that deviate from expected human behaviour.

How to use BAS?

BAS is designed to be used in real-time, via our API, or through survey software with integrated ReDem functionalities.
