Fact-Checking App For PC, Android & iOS: AI-Based Fake News Detector Launch

As concerns grow about the volume of misinformation during elections, one new application leverages advanced AI to offer voters a near-instant fact-checking capability.

Launched on the day of the US election, SnapFact™ is a groundbreaking new AI-powered fact-checking application developed with the goal of helping voters make more informed decisions. Currently available via web browser, and soon to be offered on Android and iOS, the platform offers instant verification of information from a variety of sources, including news articles, social media posts, or images.

According to a recent study by Pew Research, 52% of Americans found it difficult to know what was true during the recent election cycle. Misinformation can originate from both domestic and foreign sources and threatens to erode voters’ trust in the democratic process, explains the Brennan Center for Justice.

Leveraging cutting-edge AI-based technology, SnapFact™ analyzes source information to offer a clear and unbiased characterization in near real-time. Following analysis, the app presents users with one of four classifications: True, False, Misleading, or Unknown.

The developers of SnapFact™ explain that the amount of misinformation has given rise to deep mistrust among many individuals, and the platform is designed to be unbiased and objective. Each assessment is accompanied by a comprehensive summary, including the credibility and publication dates of all sources.

Speed and ease of use were other core considerations during the design and development of SnapFact™. The process of researching and cross-checking information is too time-consuming for many individuals, and the platform aims to address this by offering an intuitive way to fact-check information, as well as the ability to share results with others.

While SnapFact™ was developed and launched in Los Angeles, California, the founders state that its utility is not constrained to American voters. With democracies across Europe, Asia, and Australasia also combating a growing amount of misinformation, the new platform offers a convenient tool for voters all around the world.

“SnapFact™ directly addresses the growing challenge of misinformation, providing users with a quick and easy way to verify information before sharing it,” a company representative explained. “By promoting critical thinking and informed decision-making, SnapFact™ aims to foster a more informed and engaged citizenry.”
