This is not a quiz that asks how you feel. This is a narcissistic gaslighting detector tool that reads what they actually said.
Paste any conversation. Text messages, emails, DMs, or just upload your screenshots directly. This free gaslighting detector performs forensic-level analysis of your real words in seconds. It scans for 12 documented manipulation patterns including DARVO, stonewalling, blame-shifting, memory manipulation, and emotional invalidation.
Here is what makes this gaslighting detector different from everything else out there. It assumes innocence first. It requires strong evidence through five verification gates before it flags anything. Every single finding comes with an alternative innocent explanation so you can judge the full picture yourself. It honestly analyzes both sides of the conversation, and if it detects concerning patterns from your side too, it will tell you directly. It names the exact clinical tactics used in narcissistic abuse. And then it gives you actual boundary-setting responses you can say in your next conversation.
No sign up. No data stored. No quiz. Just paste your conversation and get the truth. Whether that truth is a score of 12 or a score of 85, both answers matter.

How Accurate Is This Gaslighting Detector?
Every finding passes through five verification gates that assume innocence first. It also shows an alternative innocent explanation for each finding so you can judge the full picture yourself.
What If The Gaslighting Detector Says It Is Not Gaslighting?
A low score is a useful result — it means this text does not show strong manipulation evidence. That does not invalidate your feelings. Consider analyzing more conversations or speaking with a professional.
Will This Gaslighting Detector Tell Me If I Am Being Manipulative Too?
Yes. The counter-analysis section honestly reports concerning patterns from both sides of the conversation. No other tool does this.
Can I Use This Gaslighting Detector For Workplace Conversations?
Yes. It detects workplace-specific patterns like credit-taking, blame-shifting for projects, dismissing qualifications, and invalidating ideas. If you suspect a narcissist boss, this tool can help you see the patterns clearly.
Can I Upload Screenshots To This Gaslighting Detector?
Yes. Up to 3 images (JPG, PNG, WebP, max 5MB each). The AI reads all text in the images before analyzing.
What Responses Does The Gaslighting Detector Suggest?
When significant manipulation is found, the tool provides calm, assertive boundary-setting phrases based on therapy techniques like gray rocking and yellow rock responses and I-statements.
Can I Share Gaslighting Detector Results With My Therapist?
Yes. The “Share with your therapist” button generates a branded PDF report with the complete analysis, evidence, and suggested responses.
How Is This Gaslighting Detector Different From Other Tools?
Most tools inflate scores to validate users. This one assumes innocence, requires evidence through five gates, shows alternative explanations, analyzes both sides honestly, names clinical tactics like DARVO, and is completely free. It even detects when a narcissist is playing the victim in the conversation.
