Misinformation check
Paste a claim, headline, or article — we identify manipulation techniques, logical fallacies, and missing context, then suggest concrete search queries to verify further.
This tool spots manipulation, not facts. It identifies rhetorical techniques and credibility signals — it cannot verify whether a specific number, event, or quote is true. Always check multiple sources before sharing.
Trusted fact-checkers
Search the claim on multiple fact-checking sites — established stories usually have a write-up at one or more of these. They're independent, follow the IFCN code of principles, and publish their methodology.
