| Fact-checks individual claims with a score and linked evidence | Yes — every claim gets a 0-100 credibility score with sources you can open | No — it curates and ranks published articles rather than verifying claims inside them |
| Works on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram Reels and podcasts | Yes — paste a link or run the Chrome/Firefox extension while you watch | No — built around text news articles from publishers, not creator video |
| Breadth of daily news from established publishers | None — BSmeter has no news feed and doesn't tell you what's happening | Its core strength: a broad, ML-curated feed spanning many premium and local outlets |
| Left / center / right view of a political story | Not offered — BSmeter scores claims, it doesn't map outlet lean | Yes — the News From All Sides slider shows coverage across the political spectrum |
| Deepfake / AI-generated media signals and logical-fallacy flags | Yes — flags manipulated-media signals and fallacies alongside the claim breakdown | Not a feature — publisher vetting happens at the source level instead |
| Price | Free tier; Basic $3.99/mo, Premium $8.99/mo for heavier use | Free and ad-supported, with a rewards program that gives points for reading |
