The 5-step method

Four steps are automated. The one that matters is human.

Myth-busting is really five tasks. AI does the heavy lifting at scale; a trained human renders the verdict on anything genuinely new — because trust can't be automated.

  1. AI
    01

    Ingest anything

    Text, screenshot, voice note or video. We read it with OCR, transcribe speech and sample frames — you just share.

  2. AI
    02

    Extract the claim

    Messy forwards become one clean, checkable statement — even from Hinglish or a blurry screenshot.

  3. AI
    03

    Match what's known

    Semantic search compares the claim against a growing library of verified fact-checks in both languages.

  4. AI
    04

    Serve the verdict instantly

    If it's a claim we've verified before — the common case — you get the Truth Score and evidence right away.

  5. Human
    05

    Verify what's new

    A genuinely novel claim goes to a trained reviewer. Verify once, and everyone who forwards it next gets the answer instantly.

Questions

Good things to ask a fact-checker

How is JaanchKaro different from just asking an AI chatbot?

A chatbot generates a confident-sounding answer that can be wrong. JaanchKaro serves verdicts that a trained human reviewer has actually verified, with cited evidence. AI handles speed and scale; people own the final call on anything new.

Does it work in Hindi?

Yes. English and Hindi are supported across the entire flow from day one, including mixed Hinglish claims. It's core to the product, not a translation bolted on later.

Can I check a screenshot or voice note, not just text?

Yes. JaanchKaro reads screenshots (OCR), transcribes voice notes, and samples video frames, so you can check a forward in whatever form it arrived.

What does it cost?

Checking text forwards and searching the verified-myths archive are free. A Pro plan adds images, voice, video and unlimited checks. See the pricing page for details.

What happens with a claim nobody has checked before?

It's routed to a trained reviewer who verifies it against credible sources. Once resolved, everyone who forwards that same claim afterwards gets the verdict instantly.

When can I use it?
