About
TrustServista is a unique AI-powered online Content Analytics and Verification platform built for media professionals, journalists, analysts, and content distributors who need reliable tools to combat disinformation. Developed with Google DNI funding and trained on more than 4 million news articles, TrustServista's proprietary trustworthiness algorithm combines deep content analysis, publisher profile evaluation, source credibility assessment, and cross-publisher viewpoint comparison to score the reliability of any news article. The platform offers a comprehensive suite of Text and News Analytics capabilities including automatic summarization, entity extraction, sentiment analysis, and standardized content classification. Its News Analytics engine processes over 60,000 articles per day across multiple languages, providing real-time intelligence on open data. A standout feature is Semantic Graph Processing, which maps how information travels across the web by building a Semantic Relationship Graph—tracing content back to its original source, dubbed "Patient Zero." TrustServista is accessible via a REST API with interactive documentation, a web dashboard, and a one-click Chrome Extension for in-browser article verification. It supports flexible SaaS and on-premise Docker deployment, making it suitable for both cloud-first organizations and security-conscious enterprises.
