Veritas
Veritas is an AI investigator for misleading videos.
Core trick
Argon extracts claims from a full video, parallel agents check each against sources, and Argon rates each as true, false, or misleading.
Description
Veritas is an AI investigator for misleading videos. I see so many posts and videos online that twist facts, and honestly most people don’t have time to check them. You just give Veritas a video, and Gemini 4 Argon watches it fully and pulls out every claim. Flash agents check each claim with real sources in parallel, and Argon judges what’s true, what’s false and what’s misleading, including edits and missing context. Then Argon makes a narrated explainer, watches its own explainer, catches mistakes and fixes them before showing it. A Managed Agent finally verifies every source and creates a shareable video. Basically, Gemini gives you an opinion; Veritas runs a full investigation and checks its own work.
README excerpt
# Veritas **Gemini gives you an opinion. Veritas runs an investigation, then shows you the truth.** Built in a single day at the Gemini hackathon, October 25, 2026 — everything in this repository, every prompt, every line of the pipeline and every pixel of the UI, was written during the event. ## The problem Misleading and out-of-context videos shape what millions of people believe, and most viewers have neither the time nor the tools to check what they're watching. A video can quote someone accurately and still be a lie, by splicing in old footage, cutting context, or burying a false claim inside a technically-true sentence. Spotting that takes real investigative work — exactly the kind of multi-step, evidence-grounded task a frontier model with search and video understanding is suited for. ## What Veritas does 1. You give it a video — a YouTube link or an upload. 2. Gemini watches the whole thing and pulls out every checkable factual claim, with speaker and timestamp. 3. A pool of investigator agents researches each claim in parallel using Google Search grounding. 4. A judge turns the evidence into a verdict per claim — **true, misleading, false, or unverifiable** — plus an overall video verdict, the misleading techniques used, and a plain-language account of what actually happened. 5. Gemini writes a short, natural-language **narration script** for a shareable explainer and a text-to-speech model voices it. 6. Veritas **renders the explainer, watches it, critiques it
