Why it exists
I got tired of reading the news, watching it, scrolling past it on social media — and then having to go do my own digging to see if any of it was real. That work shouldn't sit on you every time a headline hits.
So I built FinchFile: a verification layer for the news you read. We don't ask you to trust us. We show you the evidence. Real means the claim passed our evidence test — not that FinchFile is an authority on truth.
AI agents check every claim against the public record, ranked by hierarchy (court records over trade press over anonymous posts). A human reviews a portion of verdicts, and reviews any verdict a reader disputes. Verdicts that have had human review carry a Human reviewed badge. . Corrections policy.

The three stamps
We pull the claim, test it against how these systems actually behave, and put a verdict on it. Not a score. A stamp.
The desks
AI is the first board — it pulls AI stories from every desk. Social media sits next, then News, Sports, Business, Technology, and the rest. Same rule on every board: only the top ranked verdicts make the leaderboard.
