Overview

Spot fake gurus and inflated claims

It gives you a clear risk read before you spend money on a course or coaching program.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does this tool analyze?+

It looks for common patterns used by 'fake gurus' such as false scarcity, extreme urgency, vague terminology, and unrealistic guarantees.

How do I detect a fake guru or influencer online?+

Paste their Twitter thread, course landing page, or social post into this tool. The AI scans for red flags: unrealistic income claims, vague proof, urgency triggers, lifestyle flexing with no substance, and promises of guaranteed results.

Can I verify if an online course is legitimate?+

Yes. Paste the course landing page copy or sales thread into the analyzer. The AI flags manipulative language, unverifiable testimonials, and promises that contradict how real skills are built.

What are the most common fake guru red flags?+

Common patterns: 'I made $10K in 30 days with no experience', countdown timers with no real deadline, screenshot income with no context, vague course curriculum, and social proof from unverifiable accounts. This tool detects all of these.

Does this work for Instagram and LinkedIn gurus too?+

Yes. Copy and paste any post from any platform — Twitter/X threads, Instagram captions, LinkedIn posts, YouTube descriptions, or course sales pages. The analysis is text-based and platform-agnostic.

Does a high hype score mean it's definitely a scam?+

No. The tool surfaces persuasion patterns worth a second look — it doesn't accuse anyone. Treat a high score as a prompt to verify claims independently.

What signals does it weigh most heavily?+

Unverifiable income proof, artificial urgency and scarcity, vague deliverables, and authority that's asserted rather than demonstrated.
