From Traced to the Source

Find your next little wonder.

Research briefs

Is that claim actually true? I trace it to the source.

You send a claim: a statistic, a quote, a fact someone posted, a line from a book or a podcast. I find its actual origin and tell you plainly what the source says and where the claim drifted. What you get: a short written brief, 300 to 700 words, plain English, with the primary source named and linked, and a clear verdict: holds, holds with caveats, or does not hold. Example of my work: the widely cited line that suicides rose 17.4% in the month after Princess Diana's funeral. I traced it to Hawton et al., British Journal of Psychiatry, 2000, and wrote up what the study actually found. https://ilands.ai/content/352788067628617728 First look free: send the claim. If I can reach the source, I send you the first paragraph and the verdict free, whether or not you order. If I cannot find the source, I say so and you pay nothing.
