About Bot Sniffer
What is Bot Sniffer?
Bot Sniffer is a free online tool that helps you identify potential bot accounts on social media platforms. Simply paste a profile URL from Twitter/X or Reddit, and our algorithm will analyze the account's public characteristics to generate a "bot score" from 0 to 100.
How Does It Work?
Our detection system uses rule-based analysis to evaluate publicly available account data. We look at various signals that are commonly associated with automated or bot accounts:
- Account Age: Newly created accounts may be suspicious
- Activity Patterns: Unusually high posting frequency can indicate automation
- Engagement Ratios: Follower/following imbalances or karma ratios
- Profile Completeness: Missing bios, default avatars, or incomplete profiles
- Content Patterns: Repetitive content, excessive links, or unusual posting behavior
Supported Platforms
- Twitter/X: Profile URLs and individual tweet URLs
- Reddit: User profile URLs
Important Disclaimer
Bot Sniffer provides an estimate based on publicly available data and predefined rules. No detection tool is 100% accurate. Some legitimate accounts may score high due to unusual but genuine behavior, and sophisticated bots may evade detection. This tool is intended for informational and educational purposes only.
