# Browser extension for an automated fact check
Factinsect compares information from the Internet with selected quality media. It gives readers a clear indication of the credibility of information and helps distinguish between false information and real news. Factinsect massively reduces the effort required for research on the Internet.
# Functionality
To make the Factinsect icon permanently visible in the browser bar, click on "Extensions" in the tab bar, then on the “pin" symbol next to Factinsect (blue “pin” symbol).
Open a news article in the browser and click on the Factinsect icon in the browser bar. The result will appear after a few seconds.
• Confirmed / mostly confirmed (green symbol): The most important statements of the news article have been confirmed by quality media.
• Falsified / mostly refuted (red symbol): Important statements in the article contradict information from quality media. In this case, you should do more research on the topic, for example on quality media or by talking to experts.
• No statement possible (grey symbol): Factinsect could not find any comparable news content. Possible causes: the content is exclusive or the news article is very new. In this case: Please try again later.
