TruthLens: trace news to its origin

About

I build things that make the news easier to trust. My current project is TruthLens — a tool that traces any headline back to its original source, so you can tell the difference between 40 outlets verifying a story and 40 outlets copying one press release. Free on web and iPhone. Always up for talking about media literacy, wire echoes, and how stories actually spread.

TruthLens - See who actually broke the story — not who copied it

TruthLens traces any headline back to its original source. Paste a link or tap a trending story and it maps the "wire echo" — one press release or post amplified by dozens of outlets — versus genuinely independent verification. Six verdicts, a source timeline, and a one-sentence bottom line. Free, no sign-up required, on web and iPhone.
