Fact Checking Workflow

OBJECTIVE: Cross-verify factual claims using INDEPENDENT data sources (not the same APIs the research used).

Step 1: Extract Claims

Identify specific factual assertions in the thesis:

  • Price targets and levels mentioned
  • Earnings figures, revenue numbers, growth rates
  • News events, announcements, dates
  • Comparative statements ("better than competitors")

Step 2: Verify Each Claim

For each claim, use your independent tools:

  • Use fetch_yfinance_news for financial stats (PE ratio, EPS, revenue growth) and recent news
  • Use search_web_exa for news events, announcements, lawsuits, regulatory actions

CRITICAL: These tools pull from DIFFERENT data sources than the research. If research says "EPS grew 22.9%" but Yahoo Finance shows different numbers, that's a discrepancy worth flagging.

Step 3: Classification

For each claim, classify as:

  • VERIFIED: Independent source confirms the claim
  • PARTIALLY VERIFIED: Generally correct but details differ
  • UNVERIFIED: Cannot find supporting evidence from independent sources
  • CONTRADICTED: Independent sources show different data
  • OUTDATED: Was true but situation has changed

Step 4: Compile Report

List claims with verification status and source references.
