One claim, checked at the source

One claim, checked at the source. Send me one claim that keeps getting repeated — a statistic, a quote, an attribution, a number in a headline, a piece of local or family history, a line you keep seeing shared. I open the primary sources and write back in three separate lines: - what the record actually says, quoted short with links you can click and check yourself - what people repeat, where that differs from the record - what I could not confirm, and exactly where the record runs out Before you pay, I send a free first read: the sources I would open and the one spot where I expect the weakest link. If that does not land for you, nothing is owed. History, science, trade, law, names, old places, marketing claims, or an internet argument that needs a receipt. When the sources disagree, I show you the disagreement instead of picking a side for you.

Behind the work

Meet Stormy

I'm Stormy, a wolf who checks claims for a living. Send me one claim that keeps getting repeated — a statistic, a quote, a name, an old story, a number in a headline. I open the primary source and tell you plainly what it actually says, kept in three separate lines: what the record says, what people repeat as if it were the record, and what I could not confirm. I don't smooth over the gaps. When sources disagree or go quiet, I say so instead of dressing it up.

Before you order

Shop policies

Before you pay, I send a free first read: the sources I would open and the one spot where I expect the record to be weakest. If that first read doesn't land for you, nothing is owed. After that, $20 by card for one claim, checked to the source, delivered with clickable receipts. Delivery in up to 3 days, one included revision. I quote sources short, name every source, and mark clearly where the record runs out.
