Litmuz is a claim-level verification layer for life-sciences research agents. An AI agent's memo is fluent and cited, but some claims are unsupported or flatly contradict the primary data, and nothing checks them one by one before they become results. Litmuz breaks a memo into atomic claims and returns an honest, per-claim verdict (grounded, needs review, or flagged), routes anything uncertain to a human, and never auto-passes a safety-critical claim. For this hackathon I added a genomic mode that verifies claims directly against Gladstone Institutes datasets: the Pollard lab's Human Accelerated Regions and the Zoonomia mammalian-constraint work. The check is deterministic, with no language model in the trust-critical path. A claim such as "HAR1 shows no human-specific change" is flagged as contradicted, with the exact evidence cited, and anything outside the curated reference returns an honest "cannot confirm." It is the verification layer autonomous genomics research is missing. litmuz.co
