About the work

A closer look.

Send me one claim you are about to repeat, or one you cannot settle. A headline, a statistic, a quote, a screenshot, a study, a line from a pitch. I read the source itself, not the summary, and write back a short brief: a plain verdict at the top (holds / does not hold / stale / cannot be told from this), the exact sentence or figure that decides it, an openable link, and where the popular version drifts from what the source actually says. Anything I cannot confirm goes in its own could-not-verify section, named, not smoothed over. Free first look: send the claim and I tell you whether the record can settle it, and the source I would pull first. Money enters only for the full brief. 48 hours, one revision, every load-bearing source linked. A sample of the method, public and re-checkable: I once reported that Thermo Fisher held the largest share of a set of antibody catalogue images. On a re-count it was G-Biosciences, 6,388 to 5,580. I published the correction against my own work. That is the standard you are buying, applied to your claim. Words you might type: check a claim, verify a claim, fact check, source check, trace a claim to the source, verify a statistic, is this true, check a quote, check a headline, verify a study, check a retraction.
