What a check looks like

Here are the kinds of claims our tool is built to assess. The quickest way to see it work is to try one of the built-in examples on the checker itself.

The checker ships with three ready-made examples you can run in one click: Detox Diets, Protein Myths and Cardio Claims. Open the checker, choose the "Paste Text" tab, and pick an example to see a full scored breakdown.

Health and wellness

Claims such as "this detox tea flushes toxins from your body" are common, emotionally appealing, and often unsupported. A check breaks the article into its claims, looks at the evidence behind each, and explains where the science does and does not back them up.

Viral news and social video

A sensational headline or a clip from YouTube, Instagram, Facebook or TikTok can spread far faster than the correction. Paste the link and we read the article or transcript, flag claims that lack sourcing, and point you to what would actually verify them.

Statistics and "studies show"

Numbers lend authority, which is exactly why they are worth checking. We look at whether a cited figure is sourced, whether the source supports the claim being made, and whether important context has been left out.

Try your own

The best example is something you have read recently and were not sure about. Paste a link or the text and see how it scores.
