Frequently Asked Questions

What is FallacyScanner used for?

It is designed to analyze long texts, social media posts, and screenshots to identify logical fallacies, emotional manipulation, and potential misinformation. It helps you see through 'persuasion tactics' in online content.

What can't it do?

It is not a substitute for legal, medical, or professional advice. It does not provide absolute truth but rather a probability-based analysis of reasoning quality and content reliability.

How is it different from generic AI models?

Unlike generic chat models, FallacyScanner integrates real-time web search for grounding, uses a specialized logical fallacy taxonomy, and is optimized for reading visual screenshots of social media drama.

Is my data private?

We value privacy. Analysis history is stored only if you are logged in. Anonymous analyses are subject to strict anti-abuse controls and limited retention.

How does the point system work?

Each analysis costs 5 points. New users get 10 free temporary points. You can purchase more point packages on the pricing page as needed.
