I never heard of such a thing, and if there is, how reliable shall it be?
The software would have to be able to completely undersstand the language,
follow the argument, and determine which logical fallacy is being demonstrated.
There may be some keywords that would perhaps CLUE particular logical fallacies.
For example, everybody, everyone, should too would be typically found in a BANDWAGON
argument
arguments that use critical language towards the opposition can possibly be detected as
AD HOMINUM.
