Credibility analysis on public posts with the reasoning shown — never a black-box score. The core is open source, free for the communities that need it most.
A real claim analyzed live on the free tool: a fabricated vaccine-microchip conspiracy scores 95/100 CRITICAL, with the specific signals and reasoning shown — not just a number.
Disinformation moves faster than fact-checking, and opaque “trust scores” make things worse — a number nobody can interrogate is just another authority to distrust. Truth Shield takes the opposite bet: show the reasoning, every time.
Truth Shield analyzes public posts for credibility signals and produces an assessment with its reasoning displayed — what it weighed, what it found, why it concluded what it concluded. A reader can disagree with the analysis, because they can actually see it. That is the point.
The core is open source and free — a deliberate decision that verification tooling for vulnerable communities should not sit behind a paywall. The commercial suite builds on it; the foundation belongs to everyone.
Every claim below maps to a dated behavioral proof against the live production service.
