When a claim grows in the edit
A stronger verb can turn a careful finding into a promise. Here is a way to catch the change.
Good writing.
One loose fact.
Verity helps you check factual claims and review the sources behind them before you publish.
Start with one sentence from the piece you are working on. Open the sources, compare the relevant passage with your wording and decide what belongs in the finished draft.
A few useful places to pause.
The link works. Does the claim?
Follow the reference until you can compare your sentence with the passage that supports it.
Three links. One source.
Several articles can repeat one report. Follow the trail before counting independent support.
50% of what?
Put the starting value and the denominator back beside the percentage. Two worked examples.
Bring the awkward sentence.
I’m Seetsele, Verity’s founder. I started building it because I was seeing false and potentially harmful claims in papers, articles and posts. I wanted a practical way to look more closely at the information we rely on.
If checking sources is part of your work, I would like to see where Verity helps and where it gets in the way. A public claim is enough for a first conversation.
