03

Understand the context

Learn the limits and caveats behind each claim.

04

Check the sources

Read the research that the conclusions rest on.

A reader weighing what to trust
Why it matters

Everyone has something to say. Who do you trust?

We have never had access to so much information. Yet it has never been harder to tell facts from opinion. EvidenceLens gives you a calm, evidence-based second opinion — in seconds.

It really doesn't get simpler than this.

1

Paste a link

A video, article, podcast or PDF — anything you want to check.

2

We analyze it

EvidenceLens reads the content and finds the claims that matter.

3

You get clear conclusions

Each claim gets a plain-language verdict, with the sources behind it.

The result

See what is actually known.

Every claim gets a clear, color-coded verdict — and you can open the studies behind it.

Supported by research

Backed by strong, consistent scientific evidence.

Treat with caution

Some support, but with important limits or mixed results.

Not confirmed

The evidence does not back this claim.

Not enough data

There isn't enough research to judge it yet.

Every verdict links to the publications it is based on.

Why the answers are different

Built on real research, not just a confident guess.

Most AI tools answer from general training data. EvidenceLens is built around a library of over 200 million peer-reviewed publications, and matches the claims in your content to the studies that test them.

200M+ indexed peer-reviewed publications across scientific domains
Smart matching between the claims you hear and the studies that test them.
Direct citations, paper metadata, and evidence confidence
Study context and caveats for claims that are not settled

Generic AI

  • Can sound confident without showing its sources.
  • May miss the exact claim that was actually made.
  • Splits summary, checking and follow-up across different tools.

EvidenceLens

  • Starts from the actual content and the claims inside it.
  • Checks each claim against a large library of research papers.
  • Gives you verdicts, caveats, citations and chat in one place.
Where it works

Two products, one account

The Chrome extension is purpose-built for YouTube. The mobile app extends the same evidence-aware analysis to any YouTube link, website, or PDF — so you can verify content wherever you find it.

Chrome extension

Works on YouTube videos only

The Chrome extension runs inside Chromium browsers and opens beside the YouTube player. Summarize the video, verify claims, and chat about the transcript without leaving the page.

  • Summarize and verify YouTube videos beside the player
  • Works in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi

Mobile app

Verify any YouTube link, website, or PDF

The mobile app extends EvidenceLens beyond YouTube. Paste a link, share content from another app, or open a PDF — and get the same research-backed analysis on the go.

  • YouTube videos via URL or the share sheet
  • Any website or online article
  • PDF research papers, reports, and documents

Both products share the same account, plan, and monthly credits — switch between them anytime.

Made for people who ask: source?

EvidenceLens helps sharp readers and viewers turn persuasive content into evidence they can inspect.

I use EvidenceLens for every health-related video I watch. It caught an overstated claim about vitamin D that I would have completely believed otherwise.

Dr. Sarah K.
Medical Researcher

Being able to instantly see which claims are backed by real papers, and which are not, has changed how I screen sources.

Science Journalist

Finally, a tool that summarizes the video and then shows which claims actually hold up in the literature.

Frequently asked questions

The practical details before you install.

EvidenceLens is a fact-checking assistant. You give it a video, article, podcast or PDF, and it finds the key claims, checks them against scientific research, and shows a clear verdict for each one — with links to the studies. It works as a Chrome extension for YouTube and as a mobile app for everything else.

YouTube videos, online articles and news, podcasts, and PDF documents such as research papers or reports. Anything that makes factual or scientific claims is a good fit.

General-purpose AI tools can be useful, but they are not built specifically around YouTube transcripts and research verification. EvidenceLens is designed for the watching workflow: summary first, claim extraction next, then verdicts grounded in an indexed research database with citations and caveats.

Our database contains over 200 million indexed peer-reviewed publications sourced from established academic repositories and indexed on our own infrastructure. This includes papers across health, psychology, environment, education, economics, technology, engineering, and social science.

Yes, no credit card required. You get 20 verifications, 50 summaries, and 30 chat messages per month. When you need more, Plus includes 300 verifications and unlimited summaries and chat.

EvidenceLens extracts claims and matches them against peer-reviewed literature with semantic search. Each claim receives a nuanced verdict such as supported, refuted, overstated, or inconclusive, plus confidence levels and citations so you can review the evidence yourself.

The Chrome extension is built around YouTube and opens beside the player to summarize the video, verify claims, and chat about the transcript. The mobile app handles a wider range of sources: YouTube videos, any website or online article, and PDF documents. Both share the same account, plan, and monthly credits, so you can move between them seamlessly.

Yes. There are no contracts or commitments. You can cancel your Plus subscription from your dashboard, and you will keep access until the end of your billing period.

We do not store video transcripts, web page text, or PDF content. They are processed in real time and discarded. We do not access your YouTube account, browsing history, or personal data beyond what is needed for authentication. See the privacy policy for full details.
