About Trust Me Bro

Trust Me Bro is a claim-checking web app and Chrome extension that takes a single claim and searches published research for evidence for and against it. Each check produces a public "receipt": a verdict label such as Supported, Refuted or Contested, the sources on each side with quoted excerpts, a short written analysis, and a statement of the check's limits. Citations can be copied in APA, MLA, Chicago, BibTeX or RIS, and separate tools check a quote word for word and look up whether a paper has been retracted.

  • Student research: Find published papers on a claim and export citations in the required style.
  • Writing and editing: Check a statistic or quotation before publishing.
  • Checking references: Look up whether a cited paper has been retracted.
  • Product integration: Call the API to attach sources to claims inside another app.

Frequently asked questions

What is a receipt?

A receipt is the recorded outcome of a claim check: the verdict, the sources and excerpts on each side, and the limits of the check. The site says it does not guarantee a settled answer or that every cited source supports the claim.

Is Trust Me Bro free?

There is a free plan with 5 checks a month, receipt links included, and no card needed. Bro costs $9.99 a month for 400 checks and Pro costs $29.99 a month for 1,000 checks.

Who makes the verdicts?

Software does. The About page says no other person reviews receipts, and that receipts the system flags are held for the founder to review before publishing.

Do I need an account?

An account (email and password, 13 or older) is needed to challenge receipts, use the API and subscribe. The signup page is open.

Are my claims private?

No. Claims can appear in public receipts or the public feed, including ones sent through the API, so the site advises against submitting personal or confidential information.

How accurate is it?

The accuracy page shows a historical report on 20 cases from July 2026 and states that it does not establish the accuracy of the current release. Check the receipt's sources yourself.

Is there an API?

Yes. Bro includes 100 API calls a month and Pro 1,000. Beyond that, calls use a prepaid wallet at $0.003 or $0.01 per claim.
