Trustium - Analyze the Credibility of News
Trustium is a Chrome extension that analyzes the text of online news articles to determine credibility. It uses advanced machine learning models and a human rating system to identify sound journalism and distinguish it from opinion, satire, and content masquerading as quality news. Trustium provides clear red, orange, and green icons on the browser extension to help you immediately understand the type of news you are consuming. You can also provide feedback on ratings and offer alternative ratings to help improve future ratings.

The algorithm I have to say was godly. It was accurate 100% of the time! I think it could use some better visual design.
