Facts-Checking Webz.io’s on-demand fact checking uses AI to automatically identify factual claims in online text, such as news articles, blog posts, or forum posts. Each claim is then cross-verified by searching the web for other sources that support or refute it. The output clearly indicates whether the claim is Verified, False, or Unverified (when no references are found).
