Seen a story that doesn't sound right?
Paste the link. We'll check the claims against primary sources, then publish a neutral fact-check that shows what's accurate, what isn't, and where the facts come from.
Free editor review
For everyone. A real person researches every claim. Takes a little time, and the finished fact-check is published on the site.
We use your email only to send you this fact-check. We may not be able to check every link; we prioritize widely shared claims.
Instant check Members
An AI reads the article in seconds and flags each claim as Accurate, Misleading, False or Unverified, with sources you can check yourself. Included with Supporter (3 a day) and Insider (10 a day).
How we rate claims
- Accurate Supported by reliable, documented sources.
- Misleading Some truth, but leaves a false impression.
- False Clearly contradicted by documented facts.
- Unverified We can't confirm it either way yet. Unverified is never presented as fact.
