AI Fact-Checking Tool for Writers

Let your AI agent handle fact verification, quote authentication, and reference compilation so you can focus on writing, not endless research.

You spend hours switching between Google Docs, Evernote, and email threads just to confirm one quote or find a reliable source. As a journalist or author, chasing down details eats into your deadlines and creative energy. Missing a single citation can mean costly corrections or lost credibility.

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In newsrooms and publishing houses, writers and editors waste 1-2 hours each week digging through Evernote, Google Scholar, and email chains to verify facts, track down interview quotes, and build bibliographies. This manual process leads to missed deadlines, overlooked errors, and constant stress for media professionals. Relying on memory or scattered notes increases the risk of publishing mistakes and retractions.

If you keep ignoring it
