We present Copyright Detective, the first interactive forensic system for detecting, analyzing, and visualizing potential copyright risks in LLM outputs. The system treats copyright infringement versus compliance as an evidence discovery process rather than a static classification task due to the complex nature of copyright law. It integrates multiple detection paradigms, including content recall testing, paraphrase-level similarity analysis, persuasive jailbreak probing, and unlearning verification, within a unified and extensible framework. Through interactive prompting, response collection, and iterative workflows, our system enables systematic auditing of verbatim memorization and paraphrase-level leakage, supporting responsible deployment and transparent evaluation of LLM copyright risks even with black-box access. In our experiments with GPT-4o-mini, we demonstrate that the specific persuasive strategy “Pathos” shifts the leakage distribution from about 0.1 (ROUGE-L) to 0.7. Our live system is hosted on Streamlit server, with a demonstration video included as supplementary material.
