What problem does it solve? It turns vague or exaggerated claims about health, science, and technology into a rigorous, source-backed analysis instead of a quick true/false answer, so every conclusion is traceable to real evidence. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Claim Decomposition: Splits a mixed statement into individual verifiable claims and classifies each as empirical, causal, correlational, speculative, or non-scientific. - Evidence Hierarchy and Scoring: Prioritizes systematic reviews, meta-analyses, clinical guidelines, and consensus statements, then rates each claim on a 0-5 confidence scale. - Structured Report: Produces an 11-section report with a verdict, evidence map, caveats, a more precise reformulation, and a source quality list. - Use Case: A user asks "does this supplement really boost memory?" and receives a claim-by-claim analysis citing trials and reviews, flagging marketing exaggeration, and stating what can and cannot be concluded. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to fact-check a specific claim, for example: "Debunk this claim that drinking celery juice cures chronic disease, and tell me what the science actually says."
