FactLens Live Fact Checking for Chrome

Live fact checking with Sources YOU choose to Trust

FactLens Live Fact Checking for Chrome launched on July 7, 2026 with 2 votes.

What it does

FactLens fact-checks claims in videos, podcasts, and live tabs as you browse. It turns detected claims into evidence cards backed by sources you choose to trust, while letting you block sources you do not. Bring your preferred AI and search providers, use Your Browser for web verification, and set per-minute API limits to keep costs under control. Built for people who want faster context without surrendering control over where their evidence comes from.

Fact-check claims live in videos, podcasts, streams, images, and posts with evidence from sources you choose.

FactLens listens to your browser tab, transcribes what is said, spots checkable claims, and brings back source-backed evidence cards inside a floating panel. No switching tabs. No copy-pasting. See FactLens in action with the live demo, or explore the FactLens API for your own apps and workflows. Build with FactLens in your own apps and workflows. Start with $1,000 in free API usage . FactLens runs in your browser and only uses external services you choose. Transcription, AI, and Search are configured separately. Once you press Start, FactLens captures audio from the active tab using the Chrome tab capture API. Nothing is recorded before you press Start or after you press Stop. For audio…from factlens.pro

    Hi HN — we built Factifi, a Chrome extension that does instant fact-checking on anything you’re reading or watching. Please keep in mind, this is just an MVP and will be buggy and fail. We were constantly pausing podcasts and Substack posts to ask, “Wait, is that actually true?”. After too many 30-minute Google rabbit holes, we decided to automate the work. What it does • Extracts claims from articles, blogs, YouTube videos (and even images) • Assigns a verdict + confidence score using live web search, a 200 M-paper research index, and a few proprietary datasets • Flags likely deepfakes and…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
