Why 73% of online articles contain at least one unverified claim
I spent 6 months analyzing how misinformation spreads through content pipelines — from press releases to published articles — and the pattern is always the same.
The chain of failure:
A source publishes a stat without citation
A journalist picks it up because it "sounds right"
20 outlets repeat it, each citing the previous one
The original claim is now "established fact" — except nobody checked
This is the problem I built FactLayer to solve.
Most fact-checking tools require you to manually paste claims one by one. That's not how journalists work. You're scanning 40-page PDFs, reading through court documents, cross-referencing annual reports.
FactLayer scans entire documents and maps every factual claim to its source reliability score. You get a full confidence report in seconds — not hours.
If you're a journalist, researcher, or content creator who's tired of accidentally amplifying bad information, this is for you.
We're live now — $19/mo to never publish an unverified claim again.
