Hey Guys! 👋

I've always been that person who questions everything I read online. You know the type - see a headline, immediately think "hmm, let me check this."

But here's what drove me nuts: I'd spend 10-15 minutes opening multiple tabs, checking different sources, trying to figure out if something was legit. Every. Single. Time.

Last month, a friend of mine forwarded me an article about a "miracle cure" from some health blog. Instead of just telling him it was BS, I wanted to show him WHY. Took me 20 minutes to find credible medical sources that debunked it properly.

That's when it hit me - if I'm spending this much time fact-checking as someone who's comfortable digging through sources, what about everyone else? Most people just... don't bother.

That's exactly why I built FactCheckIt. 💡

FactCheckIt is a browser extension that instantly fact-checks ANY text on ANY website. Right-click suspicious claims, get verification from trusted sources in seconds.

Here's how it works:

→ Right-click any text that seems questionable

→ Our AI cross-references against established outlets including academic institutions in some cases

→ Get clear verification with source links

→ Stop wasting time playing detective

What makes this different from manual googling:

✅ Works on any website - news sites, forums, social media, blogs

✅ Pulls and cross-references results from credible sources

✅ Instant results instead of 15+ minutes of research

✅ Seamless integration - no need to open another tab

I'm not trying to solve world hunger, but if we can help people stop spreading (and believing) nonsense online without becoming research experts, that's a solid win. 🙂

Try it out if you're tired of being the family fact-checker, and let me know what features would make this even more useful!

Thanks in advance 😉🙏
