## What is ForeFact?

Use ForeFact to check claims using the Claimbuster API - the same API top-rated journalists use to check facts! It's as easy as 1-2-3!

1. Enter a simple claim, such as "The United States has 50 states" 
2. Press "Check That Fact" to get a score indicating the check-worthiness of the claim. This is done using a complex algorithm that looks for biased, subjective, and/or opinionated language. 
3. Any sources used in attempting to check the worthiness of the claim are displayed, including a link to the source when available so you can read entire articles surrounding the justification Claimbuster has determined.
