How Verilumia Works
Verilumia brings reporting from many outlets into one clear, carefully checked account, with every source, every difference in framing and every open question kept in view.
From Reports to One Account
Verilumia reads reporting from a broad range of news outlets, identifies coverage of the same event and brings the key facts together into one clear, carefully sourced account.
Every source article stays linked, so you can see the reporting behind each story, weigh the evidence and read the full coverage for more context.
Source Coverage and Perspective
Left, centre and right labels describe a publication's general editorial leaning within its primary political landscape. They do not claim that every article from that outlet has the same perspective, and centre does not mean unbiased. Publications without a confident rating are shown as not rated.
Alongside the coverage bars and linked source articles, these labels help readers see how attention and perspective vary across the news landscape.
Framing insights highlight differences in emphasis and narrative across the available coverage, making contrasting perspectives easier to compare.
How Source Ratings Are Assigned
Each outlet receives one rating, not one per article. Ratings come from our curated source list or from our own assessment of the outlet's general editorial position, judged against the politics of its primary country. A rating describes leaning only. It says nothing about an outlet's accuracy or reliability.
We would rather leave an outlet unrated than guess. Nonpolitical, specialist or hard-to-place outlets stay unrated, coverage bars count only rated outlets, and a blind-spot note appears when a story is missing a side entirely.
How Claims Are Checked
Our team and the tools we have built turn the source reporting into each story, and every story is then checked with an evidence review.
The review traces reports back to where they came from. When several outlets repeat the same underlying account, they count as one origin, so repetition is never mistaken for independent confirmation. It then sets out what independent origins agree on, what is disputed, what remains unanswered and what has changed since the last review.
The review checks how faithfully each story reflects the reporting behind it. It does not independently verify the underlying events, which is why the sources are always shown alongside it.
Reporting Tone
Reporting-tone indicators highlight how language differs across the available coverage, helping readers notice when reporting is neutral, supportive, critical or emotionally charged.
Tone is presented as an observation about language, not a judgement about truth.
Keeping Context Visible
News moves fast. Verilumia updates stories as coverage develops and keeps every source linked, so you can follow the reporting behind each account from first report to latest update.
Linked source articles let you explore details, differing perspectives and further context at every step.
Corrections and Feedback
If you believe a Verilumia story contains an error, email verilumia@proton.me with the story link, the detail you believe is wrong and any supporting source.
We review every reported issue and correct material errors once they are confirmed. Updated stories show their latest update time.
