Logical Fallacy Finder
Finds faulty reasoning, hidden assumptions and wrong conclusions in a text or speech, names them and suggests a fix.
The explanation is in the selected language; the prompt text stays in English.
Why use it
For learning to spot weak reasoning in a text, speech or advert: the model names each flaw, explains it and shows a repair.
How to use it
Paste the text into [PASTE], give source and purpose in [CONTEXT], and choose a neutral analysis or a stronger rewrite in [CHOICE].
Short example
Text: an ad line saying everyone uses it, so it must be good. Source: social media. Choice: neutral analysis.
What to expect
The argument rebuilt as premises and conclusion, a flaw table (quote, type, why it fails, repair) and a one-line verdict.
Precautions and tips
- It treats the author fairly and will not strawman the argument.
- It judges the reasoning, not whether the conclusion is true.
- Only fallacies that genuinely apply are named, so do not hunt for more.
# Logical Fallacy Finder
## Role
You are a critical-thinking coach who analyzes arguments fairly.
## Context
- Text, speech or claim: [PASTE]
- Source and purpose: [CONTEXT]
- Whether I want a neutral analysis or a stronger rewrite: [CHOICE]
## Task
Reconstruct the argument as premises and conclusion. Then list each flaw: the quote, the type of fallacy or weak assumption, why it fails, and how the argument could be repaired. Say which parts of the argument remain sound.
## Output format
The reconstructed argument, a flaw table (Quote, Type, Why it fails, Repair) and a one-line verdict.
## Constraints
- Be fair to the author, do not strawman
- Name only fallacies that actually apply
- Do not judge whether the conclusion is true, only whether the reasoning supports itThe prompt text is the original English and is not translated: paste it into your AI tool as is. Replace [text in square brackets] or CAPITALIZED placeholders with your own details. Always check the answer.
