Hi Product Hunt. I’m Asel, the founder of TrustCheck.
I built TrustCheck because AI and online content are making it harder to know what deserves trust.
TrustCheck is a Chrome extension that lets you highlight a claim, right-click, and get an AI-assisted credibility assessment with risk level, external verification status, recommended checks, and a Proof Receipt.
It is not a truth machine or guaranteed fact-checker. The goal is to help users slow down, assess claims more carefully, and know when something needs source verification.
I’d really appreciate feedback from early users, especially on clarity, usefulness, and what types of claims you would want TrustCheck to support next.

How does the Proof Receipt actually work in practice if it's not a guaranteed fact-checker, and does it reference the specific sources it checks against so I can dig deeper myself?

@erdi194741 Great question. Right now the Proof Receipt is basically a record of the claim that was checked, the page/context it came from, the risk level, external verification status, recommended checks, and the assessment produced at that moment.
I’m not positioning it as “this proves the claim is true.” It’s more like a credibility trail that helps you remember what was checked and why the claim may need further verification.
The source side is something I want to improve next. The goal is for future versions to show clearer source trails, references, and eventually public proof pages so users can dig deeper instead of just trusting the AI response.

Handy for those moments when a wild stat pops up in a thread and you want a quick second opinion before resharing. The Proof Receipt idea is smart, even if you take the verdict with a grain of salt.

@bildirci44068 Exactly, that’s the use case I had in mind. I don’t want people to blindly trust the verdict. I want TrustCheck to help people pause for a second before resharing or acting on a claim.
Wild stats, business claims, finance posts, and AI-generated answers are the kind of things I think people should check more often.
Really appreciate you saying that about the Proof Receipt. I think that could become one of the most important parts of the product long term.
