What it is

Groundery extracts factual claims from live or recorded material and checks them against sources chosen for each session. Live inputs include a microphone, a browser tab playing audio, or a stream URL such as YouTube Live, Twitch, or Vimeo. The site says live results usually arrive while the speaker remains on the same topic, ranging from seconds to about a minute depending on the evidence. For recordings, it accepts MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, MOV, YouTube links, or pasted transcripts. Claims are timestamped so reviewers can revisit the relevant moment, inspect evidence, and share or export reports. Source controls can search the web, limit checks to selected sites, or exclude sites. Groundery says it prioritizes authoritative sources and provides direct links for review. It is available on the web and as a Chrome extension. The Free plan includes 3 hours of fact-checking and 10 instant text checks per month; Pro costs $599 a month. Its terms warn that AI-generated results may be inaccurate or incomplete and are informational aids, not definitive judgments. Uploaded content and results remain until deleted or the account closes, with backups potentially persisting for up to 30 days after deletion.
