Groundery review
A capable real-time fact-checking workspace, but Pro pricing limits its value.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Groundery is an AI-powered fact-checking platform for journalists, broadcasters, producers, and editorial teams. It extracts checkable factual claims from live conversations, recordings, YouTube videos, transcripts, uploaded audio and video, stream URLs, browser tabs, and pasted text. Results include verdicts, evidence summaries, source links, and timestamps connected to spoken moments. Its web app and Chrome extension suit teams reviewing live or recorded content across editorial workflows.
Its strongest area is real-time claim handling. Groundery can extract claims during live conversations, connect them to the moment they were spoken, and check them against selected web sources. Source selection, inclusion, and exclusion controls give teams a way to shape the evidence used for verification, while citations and evidence summaries keep claims tied to supporting material. YouTube verification and integrations with YouTube, Twitch, and Vimeo also fit broadcast and streaming workflows. Enterprise adds managed fact-checking, human review, custom integrations, team seats, SSO/SAML, dedicated support, and an SLA.
The Free plan includes fact-checking for live, recorded, transcript, and Chrome extension surfaces, with source citations on every claim. Pro costs $599 per month and adds PDF export and priority support while retaining the same core fact-checking surfaces and citations. Enterprise is designed for organizations needing custom hours and team seats, managed review, dedicated support, an SLA, SSO/SAML, and custom integrations. Groundery is a strong fit for teams that need timestamped, source-controlled checks across live and recorded media. Teams seeking a lower-cost paid tier, or those that do not need broadcast-oriented audio and video workflows, should consider a narrower or less expensive alternative.
