Fact-Check — YouTube & articles

About

Fact-Check adds a one-click fact-checker to YouTube and to any article you read.

On YouTube it adds a ✓ Fact-check button next to Like/Share. It pulls the video's time-coded transcript, checks the claims against live web sources with the AI model you choose, and streams time-coded verdicts into the player: colored markers on the scrubber, a live verdict card synced to playback, and a summary of every claim.

On any article, click the toolbar icon → ✓ Fact-check this page. It finds the main article text (skipping nav, headers, footers, sidebars and ads), checks the claims, and highlights them in place, colored by verdict. Hover a highlight for the reasoning and sources; a side panel lists every claim and jumps to it.

One verdict scale, color-coded: 🟢 accurate · 🔴 false · 🟡 misleading · ⚪ unverifiable.

• Bring your own AI key — OpenAI, Google Gemini, or Anthropic Claude. Your key is stored locally in your browser and sent only to the provider you choose. • Web-grounded — verdicts are checked against live sources, with links you can verify. • Streams live — claims appear as they're judged. • Cached — re-checking a page you've already done is instant.

⚠️ Verdicts are AI-generated and can be wrong. Treat them as a starting point and always check the linked sources. This is an assistive tool, not ground truth.
