About ClaimBuster
ClaimBuster is the umbrella under which all fact-checking related projects for the IDIR Lab fall under. It started as an effort to create an AI model that could automatically detect claims worth checking. Since then it has steadily made progress towards the holy grail of automated fact-checking. ClaimBuster is mainly used by journalists, but in reality, anyone interested in tackling misinformation can make use of it. Our API provides easy access to our models and is accessible by just registering for a free API key. ClaimBuster is made possible by human data-labeling contributions. Feel free to sign up for an account and begin labeling to help us deliver better models. We have also open-sourced our machine learning model training code, so if you are a savvy AI engineer feel free to make contributions there as well. Our claim-spotting model re-tweets tweets it thinks may need fact-checking.
