Our Fact-Checking Methodology

Our transparent methodology: transcript extraction, speaker detection, claim identification, source retrieval, evidence comparison, and verdict assignment.

VideoFactChecker's methodology is built on transparency and rigor. We use GPT-4o for claim extraction and analysis, real-time web search for evidence gathering, and a 7-label verdict system that captures nuance. Our pipeline processes transcripts in parallel chunks, identifies speakers from context and metadata, and verifies each claim against multiple sources.

We acknowledge limitations: AI can make mistakes, context can be lost, and some claims are genuinely unverifiable..
