About Veredicto

What is Veredicto?

Veredicto is a fact-checking agency. We verify claims that circulate online, assess them against available evidence, and publish our findings. Our goal is direct: reduce the reach and impact of disinformation by providing clear, well-sourced verdicts that anyone can understand and share.

Aggregation and Attribution

Many of the claims we investigate have already been examined by other organizations. When that is the case, we cite their work directly and link to their original reporting. We believe proper attribution strengthens the entire fact-checking ecosystem.

Veredicto only references work from certified, reputable, and legitimate verification organizations like AFP Fact Check, The Evidence Dispatch, Full Fact, PublicProof, Newtral, and FactCheck.org.

Original Reporting

Not every false claim gets the scrutiny it deserves. Veredicto produces original fact-checks on stories that mainstream outlets and larger organizations often overlook: misinformation affecting local communities, narratives spreading in niche interest groups, and emerging patterns that gain traction online before traditional newsrooms take notice. We see this as essential work—disinformation does not only travel through high-profile channels, and the communities most affected by it are often the least served by existing verification efforts.
