Truthy - Real-Time AI Fact-Checker for Live Debates THE PROBLEM: Misinformation spreads faster than fact-checkers can verify it. Traditional fact-checking happens hours or days after debates, when false claims have already influenced millions. Live debates lack real-time accountability, allowing unchallenged misinformation to shape public opinion. THE SOLUTION: Truthy uses Gemini's Realtime API to fact-check spoken claims in under 5 seconds during live debates. It: • Transcribes two speakers simultaneously using Gemini Live sessions • Detects check-worthy factual claims (numbers, dates, comparisons) • Searches Google for authoritative evidence (.gov, .edu, official sources) • Displays color-coded verdicts (True → False → Unverifiable) with confidence scores • Shows clickable sources with publication dates for transparency
