Description

TruthLens is a decentralized subnet on Bittensor designed to combat the global misinformation crisis. We are building a Proof of Verification (PoV) marketplace where distributed AI agents compete to provide real-time, high-integrity fact-checkin.

What We Are Building:

  • Decentralized Intelligence Network: A distributed layer of miners that research, verify, and document claims without a single point of failure or bias.

  • Evidence-Based Verdicts: A system that requires every verification to include a traceable evidence trail, a logical reasoning chain, and confidence calibration.

  • Incentivized Truth: A mechanism that rewards miners with TAO for accuracy and source credibility, while penalizing hallucinations and misinformation.

  • Unified Verification API: A scalable interface for social platforms, media outlets, and enterprises to integrate automated, decentralized fact-checking into their workflows.

Goal: To provide a transparent, sub-minute, and bias-resistant alternative to traditional centralized fact-checking organizations.
