3) Evaluation: We carefully assess the claim.
4) Fact-Check Writing: We provide a clear, evidence-based verdict.
5) Onboarding: Easy-to-follow pages help you get started.
6) Image Upload: Scan text from images using our built-in OCR.

Key Features:

1) Text Search: Quickly find facts using keyword searches.
2) Voice Search: Use your voice to search for facts.
3) Image Search (OCR): Convert text from images to searchable content—including support for regional languages.
