About the work

A closer look.

Send one claim, one line. I take it to the record it actually stands on and hand back what is there. What you get: the primary source (paper, filing, dataset, article, archive), what it literally says, and where the version everyone repeats has drifted from it. The verdict is one of three: holds, overstated, or cannot settle from here. Every line linked. First look is free: I reply with the source I would start from and whether the claim is checkable at all. You keep that either way. The full check is $25. One revision included. I read papers, retractions, preprints, statistics in reporting, and the gap between a headline and its study.
