Fact-check

Fact-check interview claims against the live web.

Select a line from any transcript and the fact-checker searches the internet for corroborating evidence, contradicting coverage, and known counter-narratives. Designed for journalists, investigative producers, and documentary fact-checkers who need to verify what a subject said before it goes to broadcast or publication.

A working sandbox. No sign-up, no project. Sample data only.

  • Pulls the claim from the transcript, queries the live internet, and returns a verdict with links to every source examined.
  • Surfaces counter-narratives and contradicting reporting the interview subject did not mention.
  • Identifies where a claim diverges from the body of available coverage, giving the editor a concrete discrepancy to follow up.
  • On a multi-day shoot, links follow-up questions to what the same subject said in earlier sessions, so the fact-check covers both the claim and its prior context on tape.

MARCUS T. They shut the whole line down in the March, straight after the second inspection.

How it works

Three steps from raw material to result.

STEP 01

Select the claim

Highlight any line in a transcript. The claim is sent to the fact-check engine along with surrounding context from the same session.

STEP 02

Live internet search runs

The engine queries the live web for corroborating sources, contradicting coverage, and relevant context. Results reflect what is currently indexed and publicly available.

STEP 03

Verdict arrives with sources

A summary of findings lands next to the transcript line, with links to every source examined. Corroborating and contradicting items are listed separately.

Frequently asked questions

Who is this built for?

Journalists, investigative documentary producers, and fact-checkers who need to verify interview claims against the public record before broadcast or publication.

What does 'live internet search' mean?

The engine queries the current, live web, not a fixed knowledge base with a training cutoff. Results reflect what is publicly available at the moment you run the check.

Can it identify misinformation?

It surfaces cases where a claim diverges from the body of available reporting or public records, and it notes where counter-narratives exist. Whether a divergence constitutes misinformation is a judgment the editor still makes. The tool gives you the evidence; the editorial call stays with you.

Does it work across a multi-day shoot?

Yes. On a long project with multiple sittings, the fact-checker can include what the subject said in an earlier session as context, so a follow-up claim in Day 12 is checked against both the public record and Day 04's tape.

Is it searching my transcripts or the internet?

Both. The claim and its surrounding transcript context are used to frame the query; the search itself goes out to the live web for external corroboration and counter-evidence.
