Cryterio checks in real time the statements made in political broadcasts: transcription, factual claims, comparison with primary sources, a reasoned verdict with the source cited in under thirty seconds. Never a judgement on the person: only the data, with the source. The verdict reaches your audience where it watches.
Overlay set up within a day, embed in a minute. Public prices, no quote needed.
The overlay and the embed carry the line “Verified by Cryterio”. Editorial judgement stays yours: you may choose not to show a verdict, never to alter it.
Every verdict is anchored to the source's data (“the ONS reports X”). Without sufficient evidence the result is “unverifiable”, by a hard rule of the system: never an “unconfirmed” without a primary source cited.
We capture the audio of the public feed, transcribe it on our servers in Europe and redistribute nothing. Transcripts are deleted after thirty days.
Every verdict is signed (Ed25519) and has a permalink: a copy can be verified offline. Re-examined results go into the public corrections log.
The work is done once per broadcast and distributed to everyone: the price follows the channel, not the viewers. Amounts excluding VAT. The overlay is list price; the other amounts are indicative and set in the contract.
