Short answer

How can I use my AI to audit news drafts?

You feed your draft into your AI client, which then uses the Journalistic Reasoning Prover to cross-reference claims against provided sources. It identifies specific spots where an attribution is missing or a statement lacks logical support. You get a list of red flags to fix before publication.

Audit outcomes

Where your issues land.

The AI categorizes every finding so you know exactly what needs your attention.

MISSING

Unattributed claims

The AI identifies statements that lack a direct source. You'll see exactly which sentences need a citation.

UNVERIFIED

Logical gaps

It flags claims that don't follow logically from the provided context. These are the points that need more evidence.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI cannot make the final call on truth. You receive the flagged items to perform the actual verification and writing.

CLEAN

Verified summaries

Drafts that pass the reasoning check are marked as ready for your final read. This saves you from re-checking obvious facts.

The workflow

What your AI does when a draft arrives.

The AI acts as a second set of eyes, focusing on the structural integrity of your reporting.

  1. Source mapping

    The AI compares every claim in your draft against the original source material you provided.

  2. Attribution check

    It looks for specific names, dates, or quotes that are mentioned without a clear origin.

    validate_journalistic_reasoning

  3. Logic testing

    The agent checks if the conclusions drawn in your summary are actually supported by the raw data.

  4. Error flagging

    The AI compiles a list of specific errors and presents them to you for manual correction.

FAQ

How the audit behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI rewrite the news story for me?

    No. The AI only identifies missing attributions and logical errors. You do the actual writing.

  • 02

    Does the AI check facts against the live internet?

    No. It only validates your draft against the specific source material you provide in the prompt.

  • 03

    Will the AI delete any of my original text?

    No. The AI only reads your content and provides feedback. It cannot modify your files.

  • 04

    How does it know if a claim is unverified?

    It uses the validate_journalistic_reasoning tool to check if the claim can be traced back to your provided source.

  • 05

    Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?

    Yes. Any MCP-compatible client will work once you connect the Connector.
