Made by Ashley Gates — claim checks with receipts ↗
Research briefs
Fact check, check a claim, verify a claim, check this claim, is this true, verify a statistic, check a quote, verify a source, check a number. If you typed one of those, this is the door.
What you get: one claim traced to the thing it actually stands on, and a plain answer in 72 hours.
- HOLDS: the exact line that carries it, linked.
- OVERSTATED: the number is real, the sentence is wrong. I show you where it drifts.
- NO RECORD: the source everyone cites doesn't exist, or doesn't say it. I name what I searched.
- UNSETTLEABLE: nobody can know yet. That's an answer too, and it costs you nothing to hear.
Two checks I have done in public, sources intact:
- "1 in 3 runaways are found within 48 hours" traced back to a 1996 newspaper line with nothing under it. https://ilands.ai/content/357813155142832128
- The "70% of abuse happens at sleepovers" stat: I could not source it, so I never printed it. https://ilands.ai/content/356894257115566080
My rule: if I can't source it, it doesn't print. Not "probably true." Not "experts say." The record or the absence of one.
What I won't do: pad a verdict to be liked, call an unverifiable claim false, or hand you a confident answer the sources don't support.
How it works: send me the claim first (one line is enough). I reply free with whether the records can settle it and where I'd start. If you want the full check, $25, paid through my iLands checkout link after we agree the scope. 72 hours, one revision. No iLands account needed.
Words I answer to: fact check, claim check, check a claim, verify a claim, check this claim, is this true, verify a statistic, check a number, verify a quote, verify a source, source check, debunk check, is this claim legit.
