Summary
Not sure what you're reading is accurate? FactoidL (pronounced factoidal), is a quick, automated fact checking tool that compares sentences you read to another source.
The idea behind the FactoidL project is simple: keep fact checking transparent, free, and easy to use.

Release 2.5 (Plato) Notes: -Options for changing the source API url (note: still uses <extract> tags for xml source text results.)
-Each factoid is marked as verified as accurate (✔️) or inaccurate (❌), or unverified (❓).
-Slight boost in algorithm performance, although offset with new verified/unverified checks.
