Trust, but Veratify. Misinformation moves fast. Veratify helps you keep up — check any claim in seconds, right from your phone, without typing a word. See a suspicious post, headline, or image? Screenshot it and share it to Veratify. Reading an article you're not sure about? Share the link. That's it. Veratify does the work and sends you a clear verdict — backed by real, tappable sources you can read yourself — as a notification when it's ready. Keep using your phone; we'll let you know the moment it's done. HOW IT WORKS 1. Screenshot a claim, or share an article link. 2. Tap Share, then choose Veratify. 3. Get a push notification with a clear verdict. 4. Open it to see the evidence and the sources behind it. No typing. No copying links. No friction. WHAT YOU GET • A clear verdict — Credible, Likely False, Partially True, Contested, Insufficient Data, and more. • Real sources — every result links to the reporting behind it, so you can check our answer yourself. We show our work. • Works on almost anything — social posts, screenshots, headlines, images, and full articles, from any app or website. • On-device privacy — screenshots are read right on your phone. We send only the claim to be checked, never your photos. • Fast repeat checks — a claim we've already verified comes back in about a second. WHAT PEOPLE CHECK WITH VERATIFY • "Is this viral post actually true?" • A screenshot of a claim with no source attached. • A shocking headline — before sharing it. • A news article from an outlet you don't recognize. • An image that might be AI-generated or taken out of context. BUILT ON TRUST, NOT CLICKS Veratify is independent. • No advertising. • No sponsors. • We never sell your data. That independence is the whole point. A fact-checker that answers to advertisers isn't really one. WHY VERATIFY The hardest misinformation isn't on the evening news — it's the post a friend shared, the screenshot with no source, the headline built to make you angry. Those claims strip away every signal you'd normally use to judge them: no byline, no outlet, no context. Veratify puts the signal back. You get a straight answer and the sources to support it, in the time it takes to take a screenshot. HONEST BY DESIGN Every source we use is handed to you, so you can read it yourself and never have to take our word for it. When the evidence is clear, we give you a clear answer. When we don't know — or when a claim simply can't be judged — we tell you, plainly. And we never make things up: no invented facts, no fabricated sources, ever. If you can't verify it, it isn't worth trusting — so we built Veratify to be checkable at every step. Trust, but Veratify.
