Trust Hound reads along while you scroll Facebook, X, YouTube and more. When a post or video makes a claim that doesn't hold up, it puts a badge on it, with the sources so you can see for yourself.
Tell me when it launches Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store.Health agencies say there's no evidence lemon water cures the flu. It can help you stay hydrated, but flu usually lasts several days.

An example of what you'd see. Tap the badge.
You scroll the way you always do. Trust Hound only speaks up when something deserves a closer look.
Posts you scroll right past are ignored. When you pause on one, Trust Hound reads the text. For videos it also reads the captions and any words on screen, and listens to what's said, right on your computer.
Opinions, jokes and politics are left alone. Claims about health, money, scams and safety get checked right away. Everything else gets a badge you can tap.
Trust Hound searches reliable sources and puts a badge on the post. Tap the badge for a plain-English explanation and links to every source.
A badge is a nudge to look closer, not the final word. Every one comes with its sources.
| ❌ False | Reliable sources clearly say otherwise. |
| ⚠️ Misleading | Partly true, but missing context that changes the meaning, or exaggerated. |
| 🟡 Mixed | Some claims in the post hold up and some don't. |
| ⚠️ Unproven claim | The only support is the seller's own marketing or numbers. Common in ads. |
| ✅ Checks out | Reliable sources back it up. |
| ❓ Can't verify | Too new or too little evidence to say. Trust Hound won't guess. |
| 🔍 Claim found | A claim on a lower-stakes topic, like a fun science fact. Tap it if you want it checked. |
| 👤 Personal claim | Something only the poster can prove, like "I make $1,000 a week." Trust Hound tells you if the post is also selling something. |
Ads are where a lot of the worst claims live: miracle products, fake celebrity endorsements, get-rich schemes. Trust Hound always checks posts and videos marked Sponsored or Ad, tags them clearly, and points out how the ad is trying to sell to you, like fake urgency or testimonials nobody can verify.
Trust Hound is here to catch hoaxes and scams, not to argue with you.
Posts about elections, politicians, parties and hot-button issues are skipped by default. No badge, no check.
Your uncle's hot take, memes and satire aren't claims of fact, so they don't get a badge.
No account, no tracking, no ads. Trust Hound doesn't collect your browsing or sell anything about you.
Turn any of these on or off in settings.
Trust Hound runs on Claude, an AI from Anthropic. You connect your own Claude account, so you pay Anthropic directly for the checks you use, with nothing added on top.
For most people that's a few cents to about a dollar a day.
