What it does

The task

Open the draft at doc url and list each factual claim: numbers, dates, names, quotes and statements about cause and effect. Check each claim against a primary source, such as an official statistic, the original study or the speaker's own words. Mark it True, False, Partly true or Unclear. Do not change the draft. Write the results in a new Google Doc named Fact check, as a table: Claim, Verdict, Correct version, Source. Put the false claims first.

  • It works in Google Docs, Wikipedia, any government site and Google Scholar, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
  • It runs once, when you start it.
