Fact-Check Videos on X (Twitter)
Video moves fast on X, and the most viral clips are often the least verified. BSmeter fact-checks any video shared on X or Twitter: paste the link and get every verifiable claim scored 0-100 with cited evidence in minutes. It complements Community Notes by covering the videos that never get noted.
What you get
- Goes where Notes don't: Community Notes adds genuinely useful crowd-sourced context, but only to posts that attract enough contributor consensus, which takes time and leaves most videos uncovered. BSmeter checks any video on demand, no waiting required. See the full comparison at /vs-community-notes.
- Built for video, not just text: Notes and replies usually address a post's text. BSmeter transcribes the video itself, extracts every verifiable claim from what's actually said, and scores each one 0-100.
- Cited evidence, fast: Each credibility score links to evidence sources you can verify yourself. Results land in seconds to a couple of minutes, while the post is still live in your timeline.
- Deepfake and fallacy flags: BSmeter scans for deepfake and AI-generation signals and flags logical fallacies in the speaker's argument, two things that thrive in viral X video.
- Non-partisan by design: X debates get heated; BSmeter doesn't. It's evidence-first and non-partisan, analyzing any topic you submit, from politics to markets to breaking news, with no editorial selection of which claims merit review.
Frequently asked questions
- Does X fact-check videos?
- X's main tool is Community Notes, a valuable crowd-sourced system that adds context when contributors from different perspectives agree a note is helpful. Its coverage is limited to posts that complete that process, though, and it centers on posts rather than deep video analysis. BSmeter fills the gap by analyzing any video on demand, claim by claim.

- How do I fact-check a video someone shared on X?
- Copy the video's link and paste it into bsmeter.ai. The AI transcribes it, extracts every verifiable claim, and scores each one 0-100 with cited evidence sources, usually in seconds to a couple of minutes. The Chrome and Firefox extension can also check videos as you watch.
- Is BSmeter politically biased?
- No. BSmeter is non-partisan and evidence-first. It doesn't pick which claims deserve review; it analyzes whatever you submit and scores each claim against cited evidence sources you can inspect yourself. The methodology is the same regardless of who is speaking or what side they're on.
- Can BSmeter detect deepfakes going viral on X?
- Every analysis includes a scan for deepfake and AI-generation signals. If a viral clip shows signs of being synthetic, BSmeter flags it, and it separately scores the spoken claims so you know whether the content holds up even if the footage is genuine.
