Frequently asked questions

A fact-checking API takes a claim and checks it against sources, returning a verdict instead of a list of links. The APITube fact-check endpoint checks a claim against a live index of 300,000+ news and web sources and returns a verdict with the evidence behind it.
The fact-check endpoint finds the coverage most relevant to your claim from the index, then returns a verdict together with the articles that support or contradict it. Sources carry an Open PageRank authority score, so you can weigh them.
It returns a verdict on the claim plus the supporting and contradicting sources it was based on, each with its domain and authority. Your LLM or agent can cite those sources directly instead of asserting an unbacked answer.
Yes. Call the APITube fact-check endpoint before your model answers a factual question, then have the model cite the returned sources. This grounds the answer in current, attributable evidence instead of the training cutoff.
A keyword search returns matching articles and leaves the judgement to you. The APITube fact-check endpoint evaluates the claim against retrieved coverage and returns a verdict with the evidence, which is what an agent needs to act on.
