You've replayed the same conversations, wondering if you were the problem.
You weren't imagining it.
Narclyze helps you put language to what you experienced, at your own pace.
Narcissistic manipulation is calculated, not accidental. They relied on you not knowing the name for what they were doing. Now you will.
"I spent three years thinking I was the problem. Narclyze showed me eight documented manipulation tactics in our text history. I wasn't crazy. I was targeted."
Three questions. Our AI analyzes your answers and tells you exactly what you experienced.
Answer honestly. This analysis is for you — your answers are never stored.
After spending time with them, did you regularly feel worse about yourself than before?
When you raised a concern, did they make you feel responsible for their behavior?
Were they charming in public, but completely different when you were alone?
Each tool meets you at a different point in this process — from making sense of what happened to figuring out what comes next. No generic advice, just a closer look at your actual situation.
Upload or paste any text exchange. Narclyze AI scans for 14 documented manipulation tactics — gaslighting, love bombing, future faking, DARVO, hoovering and more — returning a detailed pattern report with timestamps and severity scores.
Analyze a Conversation →25 questions. 3 minutes. Reveals the Dark Triad profile — Narcissism, Machiavellianism, Psychopathy — of someone in your life. Understand why they behaved the way they did.
Run the Test →Paste a single message — text, email, voicemail transcript. The scanner names the specific manipulation technique it recognizes and explains what the sender was likely trying to do.
Scan a Message →Based on your situation, Narclyze puts together a practical plan — specific phrases, boundaries, and grounding techniques to help you protect your sense of self and step out of the cycle.

* Detection rates across 89,432 analyzed conversations. All data fully anonymized. Patterns identified using AI models trained on clinical manipulation literature, peer-reviewed psychology research, and documented narcissistic abuse case studies.
Paste a conversation, describe a situation, or answer a few questions — however it's easiest for you to put into words. No clinical jargon required.
It checks what you shared against 14 documented manipulation tactics and puts together a clear, specific read on what it's seeing.
Named patterns, an honest explanation, and a next step if you want one. Not a verdict — just the clarity you've been looking for.
Real messages analyzed by Narclyze. Names changed. Patterns verified by clinical reference literature.
Message 1: classic gaslighting — reality denial + memory manipulation. Message 2: DARVO — victim reversal. Combined, these produce confusion and misplaced guilt in the recipient. A documented two-step coercive control sequence.
"I read that analysis and I started crying. Eighteen months thinking I was the problem — and the AI showed me it had a name."
Phase 1: Love bombing via false intimacy and vague promises. Phase 2: manufactured obligation and guilt. The shift from flattery to blame is a documented coercive control progression used systematically to create loyalty through debt, not respect.
"I kept thinking I imagined how perfect he seemed at first. The AI showed me it was a deliberate phase with a name."
