Key point
Toothcomb has unveiled a real-time fact-checking tool that combines voice transcription and web search.
Details
Toothcomb is an open-source tool that takes MP3 files or microphone streams, transcribes the speech, and goes on to verify the content.
The analysis proceeds in three stages.
- It splits the speech into short segments and sequentially feeds them to the Claude Opus API.
- In each segment, it detects claims, promises, predictions, logical fallacies, and manipulative language.
- When needed, it combines web search with the Sonnet API to verify up-to-date facts.
- Finally, it re-reviews the entire transcript to find contradictions or missing context.
A demo and project page have been released together, so you can try out the real-time voice review workflow right away.
