About Veritas

Evidence you can inspect

Assess how credibly a news source reports, with clear evidence showing how the score was formed.

Our Mission

Veritas Shield helps readers inspect how a news article is sourced, attributed, and presented. Our goal is to turn visible reporting signals into a clear, repeatable score with evidence you can examine for yourself.

How It Works

1

Submit Article

Paste a public news article URL, or use Deep Scan to analyze an article already available in Chrome, including many paywalled and JavaScript-heavy pages.

2

Rule-Based Analysis

Our Module-Framework system uses strict, rule-based logic (JQA modules)—not AI scoring—to evaluate sourcing, authorship, accountability, genre clarity, publication context, and verification practice. The rules are deterministic, so the same visible evidence produces the same explainable result.

Our Values

Consistency

The scoring engine uses deterministic rules rather than generative scoring, so the same visible inputs map to the same inspectable result.

Transparency

We provide clear explanations of our methodology and scoring criteria, so you understand exactly how credibility is assessed.
