Fake News Checker

About

This extension helps you quickly understand the credibility of online information with a single click. When you activate it, the tool analyzes the text on the page, extracts key factual claims, and checks those claims against independent online sources using AI and trusted search APIs. It then shows you a clear verdict on the content’s reliability, along with an explanation, confidence level, and links to supporting sources. You can analyze the entire page or simply highlight a specific sentence or claim and check that alone. The extension never runs automatically — it only processes text when you click it — which gives you full control over what gets analyzed. It’s designed to save time, improve media literacy, and provide transparent reasoning rather than simple “true/false” labels. Whether you’re reading news, researching a topic, or trying to understand a viral post, this extension gives you a fast, unbiased second opinion and helps you make sense of the information you encounter online.
