Description
Nobody likes misinformation. `Is This True?` helps you quickly verify the truth of text and images you see anywhere online with an extremely high degree of accuracy. Oh, and it's free, forever.
It is built for people who want a fast, readable answer with source-backed context, not just a one-line AI opinion.
## Robust Analysis by Design
**Is This True? is designed to deliver more than a quick AI guess.**
Each check follows a structured verification flow intended to increase reliability and reduce one-sided conclusions:
- Breaks a claim into checkable parts so complex statements are not oversimplified.
- Uses real-time web-grounded verification rather than relying only on model memory.
- Cross-references multiple source perspectives for broader coverage.
- Weighs recency and source quality before returning a verdict.
- Surfaces confidence, reasoning, and references so results are transparent.
For political and controversial topics, it is intentionally built to include multiple viewpoints to better reflect real-world disagreement.
## What You Can Do
- Highlight a claim on any webpage and check it instantly.
- Right-click an image, meme, or infographic to analyze it.
- See a clear verdict:
- `TRUE`
- `FALSE`
- `PARTIALLY TRUE`
- `UNVERIFIABLE`
- Review confidence, summary, and deeper reasoning in one panel.
## How It Works
When you run a check, the extension:
1. Analyzes the claim or image content.
2. Cross-checks with real-time web information.
3. Compares evidence from multiple sources.
4. Returns a structured result with reasoning and references.
For political or controversial claims, it is designed to surface multiple viewpoints so results are not one-sided.
## Why People Use It
- Saves time when claims are vague, emotional, or fast-moving.
- Makes it easier to spot missing context and misleading framing.
- Shows reasoning and sources so you can judge the result yourself.
- Works directly on the page you are already reading.
## Accuracy and Limitations
`Is This True?` is designed for high reliability, but no automated checker is perfect.
- Treat results as decision support, not absolute truth.
- For high-stakes decisions (health, legal, financial, safety), always verify with primary sources and qualified experts.
- Breaking news and developing events can change quickly, which may affect outcomes.
