How it works
From a sentence to a sourced verdict.


Every check follows the same careful path. If the evidence is thin, it stops and asks a human.

Your editors decide
Claims it cannot settle land on your desk.


When the evidence is not strong enough, the API does not guess. The claim is held and appears in your own review queue. Your editor picks the verdict, adds a note, and the decision is logged with their name.


  • A queue that belongs to your workspace, not ours
  • Nine verdicts to choose from, plus an editor note
  • A full record of who decided what, and when


Want PIJAlance editors to run that queue for you? That is a separate subscription.

Your house style
Answers that sound like you wrote them.


Paste in your style guide. Headline case, spelling, sign-offs, the way you name institutions. Every answer for your workspace comes back written that way. Nobody outside your workspace is affected.


  • Changes wording and presentation only
  • Never alters the verdict or the sources
  • Every change is versioned, so it can be reversed


Without a house style
In your house style



Your team
Invite colleagues. See who is using it.


Work emails only, so a workspace belongs to an organisation and not to a personal inbox. Give people the role they need and nothing more. The activity log shows who ran what, and when.


  • Owner, admin, editor and member roles
  • Hand over ownership at any time
  • Sign-in codes by email, no passwords to leak


Activity, live

Long checks
Start it. Carry on. Collect it later.


A thorough check can take a few minutes. Ask for it to run in the background and collect the result when it is ready.


  • Send a long article and get an answer straight away that it was accepted
  • Ask again every 10 to 15 seconds
  • Collect the finished result when its state says done

A fact-check nudge wherever you write.
A keyboard and browser extension that quietly notices claims worth checking while you type, and reminds you to check before you send. Like a spell checker for facts.
