    Frequently asked questions

    What is the AI Hype Deflator?

    A satirical-leaning writing-style checker. Paste any AI product claim and it flags weasel words from a fixed dictionary of about 30 hype terms, then translates each one into plain English. It analyzes language, not facts.

    Does it accuse or rate any vendor?

    No. It never names vendors, never claims anything about a real product, and never issues a factual verdict. It is a style check on marketing language, with a satirical lean.

    Where do the translations come from?

    From a fixed, visible dictionary of roughly 30 weasel words and their plain-English readings, shown on the page. The matching is rule-based and case-insensitive; nothing is sent anywhere and no AI model judges your text.
