Our Methodology

CRAAP Test

Every source we consult is evaluated using the CRAAP test, a framework developed by librarians to assess information quality:

Currency: Is the information up-to-date and timely?
Relevance: Does it directly address the claim?
Authority: Is the source credible and qualified?
Accuracy: Is the information verifiable and supported?
Purpose: Why was this information published?

Admiralty Code

We also apply the NATO Admiralty Code, a system used by intelligence agencies to rate both source reliability and information credibility:

Source Reliability

A - Completely reliable
B - Usually reliable
C - Fairly reliable
D - Not usually reliable
E - Unreliable
F - Cannot be judged

Information Credibility

1 - Confirmed
2 - Probably true
3 - Possibly true
4 - Doubtful
5 - Improbable
6 - Cannot be judged

Source Credibility Tiers

We categorize sources into tiers based on their track record for accuracy:

Tier 1Major wire services (Reuters, AP, AFP), official government sources, peer-reviewed research

Tier 2Major newspapers of record (NYT, WSJ, BBC), established fact-checkers

Tier 3Regional news, industry publications, subject matter experts

Tier 4+Blogs, social media, user-generated content (used for context only)

AI Transparency

Signify News uses advanced AI (Google Gemini) to analyze claims and sources. We believe in being transparent about this:

All fact-checks are AI-assisted, following our methodology guidelines
Sources are always cited so you can verify our verification
We continuously improve our systems based on accuracy metrics
