See the tactic while you scroll.

Lens sits on X. It marks how a post is told, opens the claims inside it, and checks the post on your credits. It is included with your account.

Prices doubled because of the new administration. Nobody is talking about it.

What Lens does

Three things, on the post in front of you.

It marks the tactic. Words that blame a group, assert a cause or manufacture doubt are underlined as you scroll.

It opens the claims. One click lists the checkable claims inside the post, with a verdict where one already exists.

It checks the post. If nobody has checked it, Lens runs the check on your credits and shows the price first. A check that already exists is free to open.
