Sourcer AI

Sourcer AI is a browser extension designed to give you a quick assessment of the credibility and bias of sources you encounter online, a potentially useful step in the fight against disinformation on the internet. With artificial intelligence technology, it can rapidly find reputation scores and political leanings of online sources so you can make more informed choices.

Sourcer AI scores articles based on the language used in the article to gauge liberal, conservative or non-politically affiliated bias, but it doesn't score sources based on political affiliation. That means you can use it to see if your own perspective might be influenced.

The tool is available as a browser extension that you can add to your browser and use in your daily browsing. To get a score, you can follow a few clicks: click the extension icon, select Sourcer AI, then click "Assess" for the results.

There are three tiers of pricing for different needs:

• Basic (Free): Up to 4 bias scans per day for monitoring political influence.
• Premium ($5/mo): All basic features, plus 10 reputability scans and 25 bias scans per day, plus the ability to see your history.

Sourcer AI is in beta testing, but it's a useful tool for anyone who wants to try to vet sources online. By flagging potential bias and credibility problems, it can help you make better choices when it comes to the vast amount of information on the web.
