Global Fact‑Check Chatbot: AI-powered Tool to Combat Misinformation

The GFC chatbot connects to a massive database of over 600,000 verified fact-checks from more than 58 countries

Sixty fact-checking organizations from around the world have come together to launch a new AI-powered tool called Global Fact‑Check Chatbot (GFC). 

It is designed to fight disinformation and help people quickly check the accuracy of online claims, viral posts, news, or rumors across multiple languages.

The chatbot brings their collective knowledge into one shared system, making verified information more accessible to people everywhere.

These organizations are verified members of respected networks like the International Fact‑Checking Network (IFCN), the European Fact‑Checking Standards Network (EFCSN), and various regional alliances.

You can try the chatbot right now at: www.globalfactcheck.bot

Just visit the site, type your question, and let the chatbot guide you with verified answers.

How GFC Works?

The GFC chatbot connects to a massive database of over 600,000 verified fact-checks from more than 58 countries. These fact-checks are updated daily and written in multiple languages.

When a user types a question, the chatbot uses advanced AI to:

1. Understand the context of the question
2. Search its verified database
3. Give a clear, trustworthy answer based on existing fact-checks.

The chatbot uses a special “planner-evaluator” AI model that double-checks sources before responding, making sure the information is accurate and relevant.

The chatbot was inspired by the successful #CoronaVirusFacts Alliance. Now, GFC takes that idea further by combining global fact-checking into one easy-to-use platform.

How Will GFC Help You?

The Global Fact-Checking Chatbot is designed to make fact-checking fast, simple, and accessible to everyone. Instead of scrolling through multiple websites or guessing what’s true, you can just ask the chatbot a question and get a trustworthy answer in seconds. 

Whether it is a viral video, a forwarded message, or a news headline, GFC can quickly tell you if it has already been fact-checked, saving you time and helping you avoid spreading false information.

It is especially useful during high-stakes situations like elections, health scares, or natural disasters, when misinformation spreads rapidly. GFC is built to work in many languages and draws from verified sources across the world, so you get answers that are not only accurate but also relevant to your location and context. 

It is completely free and works on both phones and computers, making it a reliable everyday tool for anyone who wants to stay informed.The Global Fact‑Check Chatbot is a big step towards giving people quick, reliable answers when they need them most. As misinformation becomes faster and more complex, tools like the GFC offer a smarter, more trustworthy way to stay informed.
