Every article gets evaluated across three critical axes
We estimate where the article sits on a left ↔ right spectrum using outlet history, language patterns and heurisic algorithms. The face shifts from blue to purple to red.
No more Fake News. We check for evidence, sources and nuance. Short nose means objectively true and well sourced; long nose means speculation or outright lies.
Is this piece trying to make you furious, hopeless, or triumphant? We analyze sentiment, tone, and context so you can tell whether you're reading information or emotional fuel.
Pinocchio doesn't tell you what to think – it just makes it harder for the people who try to. You are the one who decides how your time and emotional energy is spent.
"We live in an age where information is abundant but context is scarce. Pinocchio helps me see not just what's being said, but how it's being said and by whom. That makes a big difference."

Everything you need to know about Pinocchio
Pinocchio shows you the evidence so you can decide for yourself. Quick checks give you an instant directional signal. Deep analysis provides detailed scoring with explanations and fact-checking. We're constantly improving based on user feedback—if you spot something that seems off, let us know.
Today we're focused on long-form article pages from major news domains. The extension automatically detects article content and won't activate on homepages, social media, or non-article pages. Our roadmap includes support for more sites and more content types.
No. Never. Absolutely not. We process analysis anonymously—we don't track who you are, just what the text says. We don't know (or care) what you read, we don't show ads, and we don't sell your data.
Pinocchio analyzes patterns in language, sourcing, and framing to help you spot manipulation before it affects you. We provide the evidence and context—you make the final call. Think of it as a fact-checking assistant that helps you see through emotional manipulation and identify poorly-sourced claims, so you can engage with news and social media more confidently.
Install the extension, open your favorite news site, and watch the faces appear. You'll spot framing before you're pulled into it.
