Fact-Check Videos on Facebook
Facebook's feed is where miracle cures, too-good-to-be-true investment clips, and AI-generated celebrity endorsements find their most trusting audience. BSmeter gives you a fast second opinion: paste the video's link and every verifiable claim comes back scored 0-100 with cited evidence. It's an easy habit to teach the whole family.
What you get
- A second opinion in minutes: Before you trust a health claim or share a shocking video, run it through BSmeter. The AI transcribes the video, extracts each verifiable claim, and returns a scored report in seconds to a couple of minutes.
- Catches AI-generated fakes: Fake celebrity endorsements and fabricated news clips increasingly rely on AI-generated video. BSmeter scans for deepfake and AI-generation signals so a familiar face isn't mistaken for a real endorsement.
- Health claims, checked against evidence: Miracle supplements and one-weird-trick videos thrive on Facebook. BSmeter scores health claims like any other: 0-100, with cited evidence sources you can read yourself.
- Simple enough for the whole family: No research skills required. Paste a link, read the scores, follow the citations. It's a practical tool for parents and grandparents who get sent dubious videos every day.
- Fallacies and comment insights: BSmeter flags the logical fallacies doing the persuading and analyzes viewer comments to surface corrections and context the crowd has already spotted.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I fact-check a video I saw on Facebook?
- Copy the video's link, paste it into bsmeter.ai, and the AI transcribes it, extracts every verifiable claim, and scores each one 0-100 with cited evidence sources. If you watch in Chrome or Firefox, the BSmeter extension can check videos as you watch instead.
- Doesn't Facebook already fact-check content?
- Meta applies its own platform policies and labeling, with review focused on content its systems and programs select. BSmeter takes a different approach: it analyzes any video you choose, on demand, and shows the evidence behind every score. Nothing is filtered out or deemed unworthy of a check.
- Can BSmeter spot fake celebrity investment videos?
- BSmeter checks every video for deepfake and AI-generation signals and scores the spoken claims against cited evidence. A fabricated endorsement usually fails on both fronts: synthetic-video flags plus claims no credible source supports. And as a general rule, treat any video promising guaranteed returns with extreme caution.
- Is there a free Facebook video fact checker?
- Yes. BSmeter's free tier includes one full analysis per day. Basic ($3.99/mo) covers 15 analyses per day, and Premium ($8.99/mo) adds Grok AI deeper analysis, audio narration, podcast intelligence, and videos up to 2 hours. Paid plans include a 30-day free trial.
