BechdelTest is an online AI tool that quickly checks whether a movie or screenplay passes the Bechdel Test. Created by cartoonist Alison Bechdel in 1985, the Bechdel Test is a simple cultural benchmark for measuring female representation in film and media. The site offers two core tools. Movies Bechdel Test lets users enter any film title, and AI automatically analyzes whether the movie meets the three criteria: at least two named women, they talk to each other, and their conversation is about something other than a man. Scripts Bechdel Test allows users to paste a full screenplay or excerpt; AI parses scene structure and dialogue to deliver per-criterion pass/fail results, named female character counts, conversation topic analysis, and a scene-by-scene breakdown. The tool is completely free, requires no registration, and produces a visual score ring, confidence label, expert analysis, cited evidence, and one-click copy or share.
