What Trusul checks
Available evidence
When configured and available, it can surface fact-check and independent-coverage signals alongside the text analysis.
Source context
For public article URLs in the full scanner, Trusul extracts accessible text before assessing the available signals.
How the credibility score works
Trusul combines the available language, evidence, and source-coverage signals into a risk-oriented credibility report. The report explains the signals it found so you can review them rather than relying on a single label.
Important limitation
Trusul is an aid for verification, not a final authority. A score cannot prove that a claim is true or false. Check primary sources, independent reporting, and expert guidance before acting on or sharing important information.
