A verdict on every article — before the first paragraph
0 followers
Discern tells you whether an article is worth your time before you read it. It flags AI filler and recycled SEO advice, separates first-hand experiments from second-hand citations, and spots Free. vendor pitches dressed up as neutral analysis - always showing the exact quote that gave it away. You also get a content type label and a personal match score based on your stack and seniority. Every verdict is quoted, so you can check it. 10 free analyses a day, no account, no URL tracking.
I built Discern after realizing I was skimming the same recycled advice for the tenth time and still couldn't tell if anyone had actually run the experiment they were describing. So instead of another summarizer, Discern reads the way a skeptical editor would: it quotes the exact line that gave away AI filler, flags the vendor pitch hiding in paragraph four, and tells you upfront whether this is a tutorial, an opinion piece or sponsored content. The verdict is always backed by quotes you can check yourself.
It runs locally, keeps no URL history, and gives you 10 free analyses a day with no account.
Feedback I'd love most: try it on an article you were about to share or buy from, and tell us whether the verdict matched your own read after the fact.
