Real-time fact-checking
for

VeritasAI extracts discrete factual claims from any article you're reading, verifies each one against primary sources and cross-outlet coverage, and surfaces confidence levels — without ever issuing a verdict.

Built for the way news actually works

✓Claim-by-claim verification

Extracts 5–8 checkable claims and verifies each independently with statistics, quotes, attributions, stated events. Not a summary. Not a sentiment score.

↔Political lean labeling

Every source labeled Left to Right so you see where support comes from. Not just how many outlets agree, but whether they span the political spectrum.

⊕Coverage divergence

CNN says X, Fox says Y, primary source says Z, all surfaced automatically. Identifies where outlets with different lean labels specifically disagree, and why it matters.

◎Live credibility score

A confidence bar updates in real time as each claim resolves — you see how an article holds up overall before all claims finish. Color-coded green to orange based on the average across all checked claims.

⊙Breaking story detection

Articles classified as Breaking, Developing, or Stable before fact-checking starts. Sources older than 12 hours on a breaking story trigger automatic confidence downgrades — stale evidence is never treated the same as fresh reporting.

✎Highlight to fact-check

Select any sentence in the article and fact-check it on demand. Results appear at the top of the sidebar, verified with the same rigor, lean labeling, and primary-source ranking as the full pipeline.
