Live fact-check · political broadcasts

Claims, fact-checked live.

Cryterio listens to the broadcast, isolates factual claims and checks them against public sources while the person is still speaking. Every verdict cites its source and reaches the audience where it watches: on air, in the article, on the phone.

How it works

From audio to verdict, during the broadcast

As the broadcast runs, every claim is checked against sources and appears on the timeline in real time, with the source to consult.

01

Listens and transcribes

We capture the broadcast audio and transcribe it on our servers in Europe, sentence by sentence. No audio leaves our servers.

02

Isolates the facts

We separate checkable claims from opinions, promises and rhetoric. Numbers and entities are normalised.

03

Checks and cites

Selected claims are compared with available sources. Verdicts are true, imprecise, unconfirmed or unverifiable.

Where you see it

Three channels, the same check

The same verdict, with the same source, on three surfaces. The work is done once per broadcast and distributed to everyone.

In the field

Point your phone at the speaker, at a rally or a press conference, and the checks appear on screen as they speak.

Method

Every assessment rests on a source

When the evidence is not enough, the result is “unverifiable”. The reference is always the source's data (“the ONS reports X”), never the person, and no claim is flagged as imprecise or wrong without a primary source cited.

Anchored to the data

Every verdict carries the sources it consulted, with link and excerpt: the data can be opened and checked.

In real time

The timeline updates during the broadcast. Verification time varies with audio, sources and claim complexity.

Verifiable by anyone

Every published verdict carries a digital signature: anyone can check that the text has not been altered. The signature proves integrity, not accuracy.
