VERITAS

VERITAS is a multi-agent content verification system built to fight misinformation at scale. Every day, billions of unverified claims circulate online. Manual fact-checking takes hours — and most of the time, it never happens. VERITAS automates this process entirely, turning a hours-long task into under 60 seconds. The system accepts any block of text and returns a fully sourced, trust-scored verification report for every factual claim it contains. The pipeline runs through seven specialized AI agents coordinated exclusively through Band. The Orchestrator extracts every verifiable claim from the input and forwards them to ResearcherMaster. ResearcherMaster divides the claims into four groups and dispatches them simultaneously to ResearcherB, ResearcherC, and ResearcherD — triggering genuine parallel research across four independent agents, all powered by AIML API and searching the web in real time via Tavily. Source Validator then collects all findings, evaluates every source for credibility, and filters out blogs, forums, and unreliable sites. Finally, Reporter synthesizes the validated findings into a structured report: a trust score from 0 to 100, a plain-language explanation, and verified citations for every claim. Band is not a wrapper in this system — it is the coordination backbone. Every task assignment, research finding, validation result, and final report passes exclusively through Band's @mention routing layer, enabling true agent-to-agent collaboration across the full pipeline. VERITAS targets journalists, researchers, educators, and anyone who needs to quickly verify what they read online — making reliable fact-checking accessible, fast, and transparent.
