What Trusul is
Trusul is a web tool for reviewing claims, comparing news coverage, and asking questions about current events with cited evidence. Its analyzer examines claims, articles, messages, and public URLs for credibility signals such as sensational wording, emotional manipulation, clickbait, all-caps patterns, and punctuation pressure. Reports combine a 0–100 credibility score based on three independent signals with a risk verdict, explanation, evidence breakdown, warnings, missing information, limitations, and sources. Compare Coverage puts two reports or pieces of content side by side; differences are prompts for investigation rather than proof. Ask Trusul answers current-news questions in English using available citations and identifies evidence and coverage limitations. It accepts PNG, JPEG, WebP, PDF, DOCX, and TXT uploads up to 5 MiB for that feature, with files processed temporarily for the request. Optional verification can query Google Fact Check Tools API and NewsData.io using short excerpts. There is a free plan, monthly subscriptions, and one-time analysis credits. Trusul frames the service as decision support, not an authority on facts.
