The problem it solves

Misleading claims and news spread through group chats faster than anyone can check them, and looking something up yourself takes time you don't always have in the moment. You want a quick way to verify a claim without leaving the conversation.

Who it fits

Community managers, family group admins, or anyone who wants a fast way to verify claims shared over WhatsApp.

How it works

  1. Someone sends a claim, news story, or question to your WhatsApp number
  2. The message is passed to Perplexity AI, which researches it using current web sources
  3. AI generates a verdict, such as likely true or likely false, with a short summary
  4. A formatted reply with the verdict and source links is sent back over WhatsApp
What you get

Claims checked with sources cited

You get any claim you send checked against current sources, with a clear verdict and links sent right back to your chat.

What you get

A WhatsApp reply with a fact-check verdict, a plain-English summary, and source links.

What you need

A Twilio account with WhatsApp access and a Perplexity AI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
