Short answer

Can my AI check if social media claims are backed by evidence?

Yes. Your AI uses this MCP to scan posts for missing primary sources and vague expertise. You'll see exactly where a claim lacks corroboration.

The audit results.

Where every claim lands.

The AI sorts every analyzed assertion into one of these categories.

VERIFIED

Primary source found

The AI finds direct evidence supporting the claim. You get a clear link to the original data or document.

VAGUE

Unverified expertise

The AI flags claims that rely on unnamed sources or vague authority. You see which parts of the post lack a specific name or credential.

UNSUBSTANTIATED

No source exists

The AI identifies assertions with no traceable primary source. You get a list of claims that are currently floating without proof.

HUMAN REVIEW

Needs your judgment

The AI flags complex logical leaps it can't resolve. These are the specific points you need to investigate yourself.

The workflow

What your AI does when a claim arrives.

The AI follows a structured investigative path to strip away noise from social media content.

  1. Isolate assertions

    The AI pulls specific, testable claims out of a long social media thread or post.

  2. Check for sources

    It looks for mentions of specific documents, data sets, or eyewitnesses that back the claim.

    validate_journalistic_reasoning
  3. Audit expertise

    The AI checks if the person making the claim provides enough context to be considered a credible source.

  4. Flag logical gaps

    The AI identifies where a claim jumps from a fact to a conclusion without a bridge.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI tell me if a claim is a lie?

    No. The AI identifies if a claim lacks evidence or uses vague authority. It tells you if a claim is unsubstantiated, but it does not make a final judgment on truth.

  • 02

    Will the AI post my findings to social media?

    No. The AI only analyzes the data you provide. It has no capability to post, tweet, or interact with social media platforms.

  • 03

    Does it work with any social media site?

    It works with any text or image content you provide from any platform, as long as you can feed that content into your AI client.

  • 04

    Can the AI find the original source for me?

    No. The AI identifies if a source is mentioned in the text. If the source is not named, the AI flags it as missing, but it does not browse the live web to hunt for new sources.

  • 05

    Does the AI change the original post?

    No. The AI is a read-only tool for analysis. It cannot edit, delete, or modify any content on social media.
