Start here · What this claim extractor is for
Editors use it to prepare fact-check lists, citation prompts, and YMYL reviews before publication.
Sentences split on punctuation boundaries and must exceed 20 characters to qualify. Rules run in a fixed order; the first hit sets the badge—e.g. a percentage often labels the sentence stat even when it also mentions a study. Signal chips (percentage, attribution, magnitude, …) show which patterns matched.
Fetch a page runs extractMainText so the textarea fills with main-body prose. Copy exports every hit as [type] sentence for Sheets or Slack.
When to use this tool
- YMYL and finance copy
Pull every numeric or "according to" clause before legal review.
- Help-center accuracy sweeps
Catch absolutes like "always" that need softening.
- Briefing writers
Hand off a grouped list of claims that still need primary sources.
- HARO and PR quotes
Verify interview pull-quotes do not introduce unsourced statistics.
Examples
Walk through these with the form above — they are practice scenarios, not live data.
Study attribution
Try this
Use the first sentence in the sample (Ahrefs + 96.5%).
What to look for
Usually tags stat first because the % rule runs before study attribution—check chips for both percentage and any extra signals.
No hits
Try this
Paste purely narrative copy with no numbers, dates, or attribution.
What to look for
Shows No verifiable claims detected—expected for storytelling passages.

FAQ
- Why did my "according to" sentence show as stat?
- Percentages and dollar amounts are evaluated before generic study cues—stat stays primary even when attribution language is present.
- Does it catch footnotes?
- Only if the footnote text lands in the extracted main body—sidebars may be omitted.
- Non-English content?
- Regexes target English cues; results may miss localized study phrases.
- Can it replace a human fact-checker?
- Never. It is a highlighter, not a verification service.
