Experimental

This helps journalists, social media analysts, or fact-checkers quickly assess the credibility of news shared on Twitter. By inputting a tweet's text and metadata, it determines if the news described is likely fake or real. This tool is for anyone needing to verify information rapidly from social media feeds.

No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you need an initial, automated assessment of whether a tweet sharing news content is genuine or fabricated, based solely on its text.

Not ideal if you need to analyze visual content (images or videos) within tweets to determine authenticity or require higher accuracy for critical fact-checking without human review.
