    You know that feeling when you read something online and think "is this actually true?"
    
    Digital Grandson answers that question. One click, one button, plain English.
    
    Hit the Analyze button on any webpage and get a breakdown of what you're looking at. Is the article backed by real sources? Is it written by a person or a bot? Is the site known for getting things right, or known for making things up? Is the headline trying to scare you into clicking?
    
    You get a trust score, a verdict, and a short explanation that actually makes sense. No jargon, no technical nonsense. Green means solid. Red means sketchy. Simple.
    
    Right-click any image or video to check if it was generated by AI or digitally manipulated. Deepfakes, synthetic photos, AI art passed off as real -- it catches them.
    
    What makes it different:
    
    - Works on any webpage. News, social media, blogs, health sites, crypto pitches, whatever.
    - Checks four things every time: source reliability, factual accuracy, AI-generated content, and manipulation tactics.
    - No political bias. Left-wing rage bait and right-wing conspiracy stuff get the same treatment. Bad information is bad information.
    - Privacy first. We never see your browsing history. Nothing happens until you click the button.
    - No account needed to start. Install it and get 5 free checks right now.
    
    How it works after the free trial:
    
    Pay $5 once and get 30 days of fully managed service. After that, either subscribe for $5/month or plug in your own AI account and use it free forever. Your choice.
    
    Built for regular people, not security researchers. If you've ever wished you had someone looking over your shoulder saying "hey, don't trust that," this is it.
    Ever seen a wild headline and wondered "wait, is this even real?"
    
    Digital Grandson is a little button that sits quietly on every web page. When something looks off, you click it, and it tells you in plain English whether the page is trustworthy, suspicious, or probably fake.
    
    It checks photos and videos too. Right-click any picture or video and Digital Grandson will tell you if it was made by AI or looks like a deepfake.
    
    Think of it like having a smart grandson sitting next to you while you browse — one who actually understands the internet, and who you can ask "hey, is this real?" any time.
    
    ━━━ WHAT IT DOES ━━━
    → CHECKS IF AN ARTICLE IS REAL OR FAKE
    Click the button, wait about 15 seconds, and you get a plain-English answer. "Looks legit." "Be careful." "This is probably fake." Color-coded so a glance is enough.
    
    → SPOTS AI-MADE PHOTOS AND DEEPFAKES
    Right-click any image or video. Digital Grandson checks it five different ways and tells you how likely it is to be fake.
    
    → WARNS YOU ABOUT SCAM SHOPPING PAGES
    If a checkout page has hidden tricks trying to grab your credit card, Digital Grandson sees it and tells you to back away.
    
    → FACT-CHECKS ANY SENTENCE
    Highlight a line of text, right-click, and pick "Check selected text." Get a quick answer without scanning the whole page.
    
    → WORKS IN 20 LANGUAGES
    English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Russian, Ukrainian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Hebrew, Yiddish, Indonesian, and Nigerian Pidgin. The answers come back in your language.
    
    ━━━ HOW TO USE IT ━━━
    1. Install it (no account, no email, no credit card)
    2. Browse the web like you normally would
    3. When something looks fishy, click the little tab on the right edge of the page
    4. Hit "Analyze This Page" and wait about 15 seconds
    
    That's it. No tutorials. No learning curve. If you can click a button, you can use it.
    
    ━━━ WHO IT'S FOR ━━━
    → Your mom, dad, or grandparents who keep falling for Facebook hoaxes
    → Your kids, so they don't grow up thinking everything online is true
    → Anyone who got fooled by a fake photo once and never wants to again
    → You, before you hit "share" on something that might not be real
    → People who want a second opinion before they trust a news story
    
    ━━━ HOW MUCH IT COSTS ━━━
    • FREE — 50 checks to try it out. No sign-up, no card, no catch.
    • $5 one-time — If you like it, pay $5 once and keep using it for 30 days with no limits.
    • $5 a month — Want to keep going after that? Unlimited checks for $5 a month. Cancel any time, right from the settings.
    • FREE forever (advanced) — If you already have an account with an AI company like OpenAI, Google, or Claude, you can plug that account in and use Digital Grandson at no extra cost. You only pay the AI company directly — usually a few cents per check.
    
    All payments are handled safely through Stripe. We never see your credit card.
    
    
    ━━━ YOUR PRIVACY, IN PLAIN WORDS ━━━
    We take your privacy seriously. Here's the deal in plain English:
    
    • The extension does NOTHING until you click. No background spying. No silent tracking of what you're reading.
    • Your browsing history is YOURS. We don't collect it. We don't sell anything. We don't show you ads. Ever.
    • When you click "Analyze," the text of that ONE page is sent to an AI to read. We keep a short record (the web address, the answer you got, and the first few sentences of what was on the page) so we can measure how accurate we are.
    • After 90 days, every record is fully anonymized. Nothing that could point back to you remains.
    • We never see your passwords, your bank details, your private messages, or anything else you didn't ask us to check.
    
    Full privacy policy: https://digitalgrandson.ai/privacy
    
    
    ━━━ IMPORTANT HEADS-UP ━━━
    Digital Grandson is a SECOND OPINION, not the final word.
    
    AI can be wrong — sometimes confidently wrong. Always use your own common sense too. Think of it like asking a smart friend for their take: useful, but you still make the call.
    
    If Digital Grandson ever gives you an answer that feels wrong, tap the thumbs-down button right there in the answer. We read every one and use it to get better.
    
    
    ━━━ WHY WE MADE IT ━━━
    We got tired of watching people we love get fooled by fake articles, fake photos, and scam ads that look totally real. The internet keeps getting harder to trust, and figuring out what's true shouldn't require a journalism degree.
    
    Digital Grandson exists to give everyone a quick, friendly way to ask "is this real?" before they share, believe, or buy something that might not be what it seems.
