Solo-built tool and browser extension that scores news articles for bias and manipulation, free to use.
I Doubt News is an independent, solo-built project by Igor Korshunov that analyzes news articles for signs of manipulation - selective reporting, cherry-picked data, out-of-context quotes, fear-mongering, and biased language - and scores each one on a scale from -1 to 1, where 0 is neutral. It ships as a Chrome extension that overlays a trust rating and linguistic-analysis labels directly on news pages people already read, alongside links back to original sources. The creator describes it as a proof-of-concept built in spare time, not a commercial venture.
Built and described by its creator as a free proof-of-concept with no plan to charge; one third-party review mentions the possibility of premium features, but none are confirmed on the site.
Use tool ↗I Doubt News is refreshingly explicit about its own limits - it flags manipulation techniques and rates bias without claiming to judge whether an article is true, and it says so upfront. As a solo spare-time project rather than a funded company, expectations around uptime and support should be set accordingly.
Watch out: The creator has said this is a proof-of-concept with no expectation of profit - treat it as a useful signal, not a maintained product with guaranteed longevity.
