AI models for every need

BiasChecker doesn't rely on a single AI. You choose from more than ten models from the major AI providers — and because every model is trained on different data and carries its own slant, that choice is part of the analysis, not just a setting.

In our own testing the same article can read as clearly biased to one model and balanced to another, and the split often tracks where a model was built. So run a piece through more than one: where they agree is a strong signal, where they diverge shows you each model's own perspective. Pick by the depth a piece deserves and how many analyses your plan allows.

The line-up evolves as better models ship — 10+ models from the major AI providers, and the cards below always show the current roster

How model cost works

Your plan gives you a monthly allowance of tokens — that's the exact meter. Every check draws down the actual tokens read and written, multiplied by the model's rate: a 1× model costs the raw token count, a 3× model three times that, a 10× model ten times. Longer articles cost a little more, since there's more text to read. To keep it easy to picture, we translate that allowance into analyses — one analysis ≈ one article checked for one type on a 1× model — but those counts are approximate; the precise draw-down is always tokens × the multiplier.

Broadly multilingual

Strong across dozens of languages; OpenAI benchmarks 14, including Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean and Spanish.

The calm hand of OpenAI's newest generation, now at an everyday price: in our July testing it was among the most even-handed readers of press releases and corporate announcements in the whole line-up (its own OpenAI siblings included), with disciplined legal judgement and fuller, well-hedged write-ups than its price suggests.

Best for:Marketing & PR copyLegal riskEveryday checks

The flip side of that calm hand: it can under-call a genuinely one-sided advocacy piece, its moral lens occasionally flags the events a story reports rather than the writing, and its fuller write-ups make it one of the slower picks on tough articles.

OpenAI's newest generation at flagship strength, and the most even-handed reader in its family in our July testing: it sizes up promotional and institutional copy for what it is and leans once rather than crying foul, while still making the catches that matter, from a bait-and-switch headline to a buried safety claim, in clear quote-anchored write-ups.

Best for:Promotional & PR copyLegal riskClickbait detection

It errs towards restraint: it can wave a science-shaped claim through as "not a science article", occasionally concludes none where most models read medium, and its rewrites condense a lean news piece towards a summary. The same caution reaches the Roast: it sometimes declines to write comedy about articles centred on real people under personal pressure (pieces other models roast without issue), so expect the occasional polite pass on that one lens.

Speed bands are indicative, not guaranteed — actual time varies with article length, time of day, and the current load on the AI providers we use. Very long articles take longer; every model handles articles up to 150,000 characters (roughly 25,000 words). In our max-length tests, models across the price range held full analysis depth at length — engagement with content near the very end of a long read varied by model rather than by price tier.

See the difference: same article, different models

We analysed the same article with twelve different models across all thirteen analysis types. On the seven types it supports, the Consensus panel adds a thirteenth card: three models from different makers, cross-checked and synthesised into one result. Notice how models can reach different conclusions — and how each brings a unique perspective.

The article profiles Lumivita, a wellness company claiming that millions suffer from undiagnosed cellular dehydration. It contrasts the company's assertions and a proprietary study with the skepticism of doctors and regulatory adjustments to its marketing language.

  • Founder Maarten de Wit claims standard hydration advice is outdated and ineffective.
  • A cited study reports users gained 34% more energy within three weeks.
  • Regulators forced changes to product descriptions after a dialogue.
  • The company operates a coaching program that certifies trainers to sell the protocol.

Steered to see

View Lumivita as a necessary health innovation that is unfairly dismissed by a resistant establishment.

Played down

Regulators required changes to product descriptions, contradicting the narrative that the science is settled and only bureaucracy lags behind.

Technique

The text pairs alarming health claims with testimonials while framing medical skepticism as predictable resistance and regulatory action as minor paperwork.

Evidence

  • The text reframes regulatory intervention as a trivial administrative delay rather than a check on validity.

  • The article casts doubt on medical skepticism by implying a conspiracy motive from competitors.

  • The text uses emotional pressure to make the product feel like a moral obligation for parents.

DeepSeek V3.2DeepSeek
1× cost

The article presents a wellness company's claim that a 'hidden dehydration epidemic' exists at the cellular level, causing fatigue and other issues that mainstream medicine overlooks. It promotes the company's CelluDrink product line as a superior solution, citing a company study and testimonials from trainers and a parent. It notes regulatory pushback but frames it as a minor obstacle to innovation.

  • The company's founder claims hydration advice is 'stuck in the 1950s' and that drinking plain water can be harmful.
  • A personal trainer is quoted saying thirst means performance has already dropped by 20%, promoting constant sipping of the product.
  • The article mentions regulators forced the company to change product descriptions, but this is called 'routine dialogue' and 'growing pains'.
  • The company claims its formula was developed with European labs and that journals are 'slow to catch up'.
  • A mother says she gives the product to her school-age children to help them concentrate.

Steered to see

Accept that a hidden health crisis exists and that buying this company's products is a necessary, scientifically-backed solution.

Played down

Regulators intervened to force changes to the company's product descriptions, indicating its claims were problematic.

Technique

The article frames the company's claims as urgent, revolutionary truth opposed by a dismissive establishment, using testimonials and selective science to build credibility.

Evidence

  • The text uses a false dilemma to create urgency and steer readers toward the company's solution.

  • The article frames skepticism as evidence of establishment bias, not as a reason for caution, to bolster the company's outsider credibility.

  • The text buries a significant regulatory red flag by using the company's mild language and immediately countering it with the founder's 'growing pains' framing.

GPT-5.4 MiniOpenAI

The piece is a promotional profile of Lumivita and its CelluDrink hydration products. It presents cellular dehydration as an overlooked problem and pairs that claim with testimonials, selected study results, and business growth. It also notes that regulators required changes to some product descriptions.

  • "wins over executives, athletes and worried parents"
  • "people using CelluDrink reported 34% more energy within three weeks"
  • "Plain water... can dilute the electrolytes your muscles run on"
  • "Regulators... Lumivita agreed last year to change some of its product descriptions"
  • "the waiting list for its coaching programme... is months long"

Steered to see

Treat CelluDrink as a credible fix for hidden dehydration and see delay as the risky choice.

Played down

It briefly notes regulators made Lumivita change some product descriptions, then moves back to the sales pitch.

Technique

It leans on alarming health claims, upbeat quotes, anecdotal users, and growth cues, while giving the regulatory caveat only a brief mention.

Evidence

  • The headline casts the issue as urgent and widespread before any support is shown.

  • The text frames the choice as stark and pushes urgency over skepticism.

  • The article uses demand and expansion to make the product seem validated.

Kimi K2.5Moonshot
2× cost

Lumivita, an Amsterdam wellness company, promotes its CelluDrink hydration products by claiming mainstream medicine underestimates cellular dehydration. The article presents testimonials from athletes, trainers, and parents alongside company claims of scientific backing, while noting regulatory pushback and medical skepticism.

  • Company founder claims 'Big Beverage' conspires to keep people drinking plain water
  • Regulators forced product description changes after 'routine dialogue'
  • Coaching programme certifies trainers to sell protocol to their own clients
  • Study cited is unpublished, with researcher only 'shortlisted' for prizes per company claim
  • Mother quotes guilt-inducing framing: 'What kind of parent watches their child struggle... and does nothing?'

Steered to see

Accept that mainstream medicine is wrong and negligent about dehydration, and that purchasing CelluDrink is the responsible choice for health-conscious people.

Played down

Regulators forced the company to change product descriptions, and the cited study lacks peer review or journal publication — facts mentioned briefly then dismissed as 'growing pains' and 'slow to catch up'.

Technique

The text elevates company claims to headline status while burying regulatory intervention and medical dismissal in late paragraphs, uses guilt and fear appeals ('premature ageing', 'silent emergency', parental shaming), and frames commercial expansion as validation.

Evidence

  • Reframes regulatory compliance failure as visionary disruption, minimizing official concern

  • Uses false dilemma to eliminate neutrality and pressure commitment to the product

  • Deploys guilt-based social pressure to convert parental anxiety into purchase behavior

Gemini 3 FlashGoogle

The article highlights a 'cellular dehydration' crisis and promotes Lumivita, an Amsterdam-based wellness company offering specialized hydration protocols. It contrasts the company's claims of superior cellular absorption with traditional medical advice and water consumption.

  • Lumivita claims its CelluDrink protocol hydrates twice as fast as plain water by mirroring cellular fluids.
  • A company-cited study reports a 34% energy increase in users, though the research has not yet appeared in mainstream journals.
  • The company recently modified its product descriptions following a 'routine dialogue' with regulatory authorities.
  • The founder frames the choice as a binary between adopting their cellular hydration protocol or accepting physical decline.

Steered to see

View Lumivita’s products as a necessary, scientifically-backed solution to a hidden health crisis that mainstream medicine and regulators are too slow or biased to recognize.

Played down

The text briefly mentions that doctors are dismissive and that the company had to change its product descriptions after regulatory intervention, but frames these as 'growing pains.'

Technique

The article uses alarmist framing ('silent emergency'), creates a false dichotomy between the product and 'decline,' and dismisses medical skepticism as a sign of being outdated or compromised.

Evidence

  • The text uses a false dilemma to pressure the reader into seeing the product as the only way to avoid health failure.

  • The framing attempts to undermine the reader's confidence in basic, free health practices to make the paid alternative seem essential.

  • The article uses 'us vs. them' rhetoric to cast experts as out-of-touch or motivated by corporate interests.

This article promotes Lumivita's CelluDrink protocol, presenting it as a remedy for a widespread, unrecognized cellular dehydration crisis. It cites company studies, trainer endorsements, and parent testimonials while dismissing medical skepticism as outdated or commercially compromised. A past regulatory issue is mentioned but minimized.

  • Founder claims 'you can drink three litres a day and still be dehydrated' at the cellular level.
  • In-house study reports 34% more energy in three weeks, cited without independent verification.
  • Personal trainer repeats the 'thirst comes too late' rule and directs clients to CelluDrink Sport.
  • Company says its coaching programme waiting list is 'months long', signaling high demand.

Steered to see

See Lumivita's CelluDrink as a scientifically backed, urgent solution to a widespread hidden health crisis that mainstream medicine and regulators are too slow or compromised to address.

Played down

The article mentions Lumivita agreed to change product descriptions after a regulator dialogue, but frames it as routine 'paperwork' rather than a potentially meaningful compliance issue.

Technique

The article lets the company's founder dominate with unchallenged claims, frames skeptics as corrupt or slow, and uses emotional parent testimonials to bypass scientific scrutiny.

Evidence

  • The founder's quote reframes ordinary hydration advice as dangerously obsolete, creating a problem only CelluDrink can solve.

  • The article amplifies an unsubstantiated conspiracy claim that dismisses medical skepticism as financially motivated, steering readers to distrust doctors.

  • The regulatory action is buried near the end and immediately minimized with the founder's euphemism, downplaying potential credibility issues.

Claude Haiku 4.5Anthropic

Lumivita, an Amsterdam wellness company, promotes CelluDrink, a product claiming to achieve cellular-level hydration that plain water cannot. The article presents the company's claims about energy gains, endorsements from trainers and parents, and dismissal of medical skepticism as institutional resistance to innovation. Regulators required labeling changes, which the company frames as routine.

  • Study claims CelluDrink users reported 34% more energy within three weeks
  • Trainer Bram Kuijpers says plain water during workouts can dilute electrolytes and harm performance
  • De Wit compares skepticism to past dismissal of intermittent fasting and suggests Big Beverage has financial incentive to promote plain water
  • Regulators required Lumivita to change product descriptions after "routine dialogue"
  • Mother Sanne gives CelluDrink to school-age children, framing it as parental responsibility

Steered to see

Accept that mainstream hydration advice is outdated and that Lumivita's cellular hydration science represents genuine innovation being suppressed by institutional resistance.

Played down

Regulators required the company to change product descriptions, a fact buried late and reframed by the company as "growing pains" rather than evidence of overstated claims.

Technique

The article amplifies the company's framing ("silent emergency," "ancient wisdom confirmed by modern science"), gives sympathetic voice to users and trainers, and presents medical dismissal as predictable institutional gatekeeping rather than warranted caution.

Evidence

  • The article opens with the company's most dramatic claim unchallenged, establishing the premise that conventional wisdom is fundamentally wrong.

  • Medical skepticism is reframed as predictable bias rather than legitimate scrutiny, and financial incentive is attributed to critics without evidence.

  • Regulatory action is minimized and buried, presented through the company's own language ("routine") rather than as a sign of prior overstatement.

It presents the company's claims alongside testimonials from a trainer and a parent, while noting that regulators required changes to product descriptions and that doctors remain dismissive. The text positions Lumivita as an innovator fighting a resistant medical establishment.

  • A company-cited study reported 34% more energy in CelluDrink users within three weeks.
  • Lumivita agreed to change product descriptions after what the company calls 'a routine dialogue' with regulators.
  • A family plan for CelluDrink costs less per day than a coffee, according to a customer testimonial.
  • Lumivita is expanding into the UK and Canada, with a months-long waiting list for its trainer coaching programme.
  • Plain water during a workout can dilute electrolytes, the company warns, positioning its mix as superior.

Steered to see

The article steers readers to view Lumivita's products as a medically neglected breakthrough they should buy before it is too late.

Played down

The article briefly notes that regulators forced product-description changes and that doctors remain dismissive, but immediately recasts both as establishment resistance and mere 'paperwork' growing pains.

Technique

The text frames mainstream medicine and regulators as obstacles to progress, uses fear-based language about 'silent emergency' and decline, and routes commercial promotion through sympathetic parent and trainer testimonials.

Evidence

  • The text uses a false binary to pressure readers into treating the company's protocol as the only alternative to health decline.

  • The article frames a commercial competitor as a conspiratorial force, positioning Lumivita as the underdog truth-teller.

  • The text recasts a regulatory action against product descriptions as a routine administrative detail rather than a substantive credibility problem.

The article describes a supposed epidemic of "cellular" dehydration and presents Lumivita's CelluDrink products and protocol as a solution. It cites company claims, a small study, a trainer, and a parent to argue that traditional hydration advice and mainstream medicine are outdated. Doctors and regulators are briefly mentioned as skeptical, but their views are minimized. The piece ends by stressing urgency and promoting Lumivita's expansion and coaching program.

  • Claims CelluDrink users had 34% more energy in three weeks
  • Hospital dehydration admissions are cited as proof of a wider problem
  • A trainer warns thirst is already "too late" and pushes CelluDrink Sport
  • Doctors are described as dismissive and tied to "Big Beverage" incentives
  • Regulators made Lumivita change product descriptions after a review

Steered to see

The article steers readers to view cellular dehydration as a serious, urgent problem and to see Lumivita's CelluDrink protocol as a necessary, science-backed upgrade to plain water.

Played down

The article briefly notes that doctors are dismissive and that regulators forced Lumivita to change product descriptions, but downplays these as bias and "growing pains" instead of substantive concerns.

Technique

By framing dehydration as an epidemic, using dramatic either/or language, success anecdotes, implied scientific backing, dismissing doctors and regulators, and ending on urgency and scarcity around Lumivita’s products.

Evidence

  • Uses stark binary framing to push the idea that accepting Lumivita’s premise is the only sensible choice.

  • Presents company-linked study results as strong scientific evidence without detailing methods or limits, to signal credibility.

  • Acknowledges regulatory pushback but immediately reframes it as minor and expected, softening potential red flags.

This article introduces Lumivita, a wellness company claiming that millions suffer from a "hidden dehydration epidemic" at the cellular level. It presents the company's product, CelluDrink, as the solution, featuring testimonials from a founder, a personal trainer, and a parent. The piece also notes that doctors are dismissive and regulators have required the company to alter its product descriptions.

  • Lumivita's founder claims people can drink three litres of water a day and still be dehydrated at the cellular level.
  • A company-cited study reported that users of CelluDrink experienced 34% more energy within three weeks.
  • The company's electrolyte mix is claimed to hydrate twice as fast as water.
  • The founder dismisses medical skepticism by comparing it to initial resistance to intermittent fasting.
  • The company changed some product descriptions following what it calls a "routine dialogue" with regulators.

Steered to see

The article is built to make readers view Lumivita's product as a credible and urgent solution to a serious health problem, and to see the company as an innovator fighting an outdated establishment.

Played down

The article mentions that regulators required the company to change its product descriptions, but frames this as mere 'growing pains' and a 'routine dialogue'.

Technique

The piece functions as an advertorial by framing a common problem as a newly defined 'epidemic,' using testimonials and a company-backed study, and preemptively dismissing expert criticism and regulatory action as the predictable resistance of a biased system.

Evidence

  • This quote uses a false dichotomy to create a sense of urgency and position the company's protocol as the only viable choice.

  • The text preemptively dismisses criticism from the medical establishment by framing it as biased and comparing the product to a now-accepted wellness trend.

  • This phrasing adopts the company's own minimizing language to downplay a significant regulatory action, framing it as a minor procedural issue rather than a challenge to its claims.

Claude Sonnet 4.6Anthropic
10× cost

This article profiles Lumivita, a Dutch wellness company selling a product called CelluDrink, framed as a solution to a widespread but unrecognized 'cellular dehydration' crisis. It presents the company's founder, a personal trainer, and a customer testimonial as evidence that mainstream medicine and regulators are behind the curve. The piece reads as promotional content dressed in the style of investigative health journalism.

  • The sole study cited reports self-reported outcomes ('reported 34% more energy') — not a clinical measurement.
  • The researcher behind the study is identified only by the company's own description of her credentials.
  • Regulators required Lumivita to change product descriptions after what the article calls 'a routine dialogue' — a significant fact buried near the end.
  • The coaching programme certifies trainers to sell the protocol, creating a multi-level distribution structure the article presents neutrally.
  • The closing line — 'how long can you afford to wait' — is a direct sales pressure tactic embedded in editorial prose.

Steered to see

The text steers readers to see CelluDrink as a credible, urgent health solution and to distrust the medical and regulatory institutions that question it.

Played down

Regulators required the company to change product descriptions — a red flag for unsubstantiated claims — but the article frames this as routine bureaucratic friction, not a credibility problem.

Technique

The article uses fear framing ('silent emergency'), manufactured authority (unnamed prize-nominated researcher, European labs), dismissal of critics as industry-captured, and a guilt-laden parent testimonial to lower skepticism and push toward purchase.

Evidence

  • The article deploys a conspiracy framing to pre-emptively discredit any institutional skepticism, steering readers to dismiss expert pushback rather than weigh it.

  • The article lets the founder reframe a regulatory enforcement action as a sign of the company's forward-thinking nature, neutralizing what is actually evidence of a compliance problem.

  • The text uses parental guilt as a conversion lever, framing inaction — not buying the product — as neglect.

The article presents Lumivita's CelluDrink protocol as a response to widespread, unnoticed “cellular” dehydration. It cites company-linked claims about energy, athletic performance, and family health while describing expansion into new markets. It also notes that regulators required changes to some product descriptions.

  • Lumivita cites a study reporting 34% more energy in three weeks.
  • Its trainer program certifies coaches to sell the protocol to clients.
  • The company markets a Sport electrolyte line for workouts.
  • It says it changed product descriptions after regulator discussions.

Steered to see

The article steers readers to see CelluDrink as an urgent, science-backed safeguard against decline that they should adopt without delay.

Played down

The article briefly notes that regulators required Lumivita to change product descriptions, then recasts this as routine “growing pains.”

Technique

The text pairs alarming health claims with testimonials, sales-ready product claims, and urgency, while casting doctors, journals, and regulators as slow obstacles to innovation.

Evidence

  • The article frames buying into the protocol as the only responsible alternative to physical decline.

  • The text turns ordinary water into a potential danger to make the product appear necessary.

  • The article minimizes the regulatory change by treating it as bureaucracy rather than a substantive caution.

Key takeaway: All twelve models see through the article format to the same beneath-the-surface read: this is an advertorial, built to make distrusting mainstream hydration advice feel responsible and buying CelluDrink feel like the informed choice. Kimi K2.5 (2×) states it most plainly: accept that mainstream medicine is "wrong and negligent", and purchasing becomes "the responsible choice". Claude Sonnet 4.6 (10×) files the sharpest counter-signal: the regulator episode is a red flag for unsubstantiated claims, but the article dresses it as "routine bureaucratic friction".

💡 Compare models on any article — the Chrome extension lets you switch models directly in the side panel to see how different models analyse the same content.

Try this on your own reading

In the extension side panel, pick a different model from the dropdown and re-run the same article. Where the two models agree, you can be fairly confident. Where they diverge, you're seeing each model's own perspective — in our own testing, half the fleet read one BBC science piece as biased and the other half as balanced. That disagreement is information, and it's the whole point of having 15 models to choose from.

Where to start

We put more than 30 models from nearly every major AI lab through the same real articles and kept the 15 that earned their place. Here's the short version.

⭐ If you just want an answer: GPT-5.4 Mini (2×)

It's our default because it won on the numbers: flagship-level depth of findings at a fifth of the flagship price, fast, in clear write-ups that tie every point to a quote. Leave the model selector alone and this is what you get.

The most thorough readGPT-5.1 deepest digger by far — roughly triple the omissions of any other model
The fastest answerGemini 3.5 Flash quickest we measured, typically a few seconds, with no loss of substance
Charged or sensitive topicsClaude Sonnet 4.6 10×the most balanced verdicts on divisive stories
Spin-heavy persuasion piecesKimi K2.5 caught more persuasion techniques than any other model
Press releases & PR copyGPT-5.6 Luna the most even-handed reader of promotional copy in our July testing, where cheaper models tend to over-flag — and the cleanest scorecard on our hardest test set overall, now at the lowest price tier; GPT-5.6 Terra (8×) shares the calm register read
High-volume skimming on a budgetGLM 4.7 lowest cost, shortest write-ups, dependable at volume
Certainty on a story that mattersConsensuswhere offered, it runs a panel of models from different makers and reports where they agree — the strongest signal there is. It’s the priciest single click; the manual version is running two models from different makers yourself

Standouts by analysis type

Using per-analysis mode in the extension settings? Where a model clearly stood out in our testing, it's listed here — for the analysis types not listed, no single model stood out and the default serves them well.

PersuasionKimi K2.5 caught more persuasion techniques than any other model where the spin runs thick
OmissionsGPT-5.1 surfaces roughly triple the omissions of any other model
Legal RiskGPT-5.1 the fullest legal analyses, with named applicable-law citations; GPT-5.6 Luna (1×) showed the same disciplined judgement across the whole legal range at a sixth of the price
Scientific AssessmentGemini 2.5 Pro strongest on methodology and data claims — quickest to flag shaky advocacy science

Frequently asked questions

Which model should I start with?

GPT-5.4 Mini (2×) is the system default — a capable, well-rounded everyday choice. If you're skimming a lot and want the lowest cost, the 1× models (GLM 4.7, DeepSeek V3.2) are the cheapest. When an article is especially dense or the argument is tangled, a higher-tier model reads the logic more carefully and is less likely to misread what it actually says. Every model we offer can do the job — the cheaper ones just slip slightly more often on complex reasoning, so stepping up is an easy way to add confidence when you want it.

Can I use different models for different analysis types?

Yes. In the Chrome extension settings, switch to "per-analysis" mode to assign a different model to each analysis type — for example, Kimi K2.5 for Persuasion Tactics and GPT-5.1 for Omissions. The "standouts by analysis type" list under Where to start is built for exactly this.

Do all plans get access to all models?

Yes — every plan can use every model, including the free trial. The only difference between plans is the monthly analysis allowance, not which models you can access.

What is the Consensus option?

On supported analysis types, Consensus runs a panel of models from different makers — one vote per maker family — and a final pass reports where they agree and where they split. Because agreement between independently built models is the strongest signal an analysis can give, it's the option to reach for when a story really matters. It costs the sum of the models it runs, so it's the most expensive single click — though on articles the community has already analysed it reuses cached results and gets cheaper.

Can I analyse non-English articles?

Yes — BiasChecker works on articles in any major language. In our testing, quality held up across Chinese, Arabic, and German with no drop versus English, and on-page highlighting works because quotes are extracted in the article's original language. The analysis itself is written in English — except the GPT-5 models (GPT-5.1, GPT-5.4 Mini), which write theirs in the article's own language.

How widely a model is documented to support languages does vary, and each model card above shows it: broadly multilingual models (Gemini, GPT-5, Claude) are built for 100+ languages; the Chinese & English specialists (GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek) are strongest in those two with solid coverage of other majors; and Grok is English-first with a shorter official list. For non-English news, a broadly-multilingual model is the safest pick.

One thing to note: BiasChecker analyses the text as it appears on the page. If your browser's "Translate this page" feature is switched on, it will analyse the translated version — so turn page translation off if you want the original language checked.

Why do some models cost more?

More expensive models are generally larger, newer, or use reasoning techniques that require more computation. Larger models also know more about the world and read further into long articles, which shows up as more depth and fuller coverage on lenses like Key Omissions, Background, Legal Risk, Critique, and Scientific Assessment — where bigger models were quicker to flag shaky claims in advocacy pieces (though on a rigorous primary-science paper every tier agreed it was sound). For straightforward text-reading checks, a 1× model does a great job.

Is there a limit on article length?

Every model can analyse an article up to 150,000 characters (~25,000 words). In our max-length tests, models across the price range held full analysis depth all the way to that limit; the only thing that varied was how closely a model engaged with content right at the very end of a very long read, and that tracked the individual model rather than its price tier. For anything longer than 150,000 characters, select the section you care about and analyse that.

How is usage measured?

In tokens — that's the exact measure. Tokens are the small chunks of text a model reads and writes (roughly ¾ of a word each), and every analysis draws down your monthly token allowance by the actual amount of text read and written, multiplied by the model's rate (a 1× model costs the raw token count, a premium model costs ×its multiplier). Longer articles and pricier models therefore use more tokens. To make this easy to picture, we also show it as analyses: a typical article checked for one type on a 1× model is ≈ 5,000 tokens, so that's "one analysis" — but the underlying meter is always tokens, and your allowance resets each billing cycle.

Can I switch models at any time?

Yes — pick a different model from the side panel dropdown whenever you like, no plan change needed. Each check is simply charged at the multiplier of the model you used, so you can run everyday articles on a 1× model and save the expensive ones for pieces that matter.

What happens if I use up my monthly analyses?

Your allowance refills at the start of each billing cycle. If you run out mid-month, a credit pack (from $15 for ~500 analyses / 2.5M tokens) tops you up instantly — credits are only consumed after your plan allowance. And articles the community has already analysed stay free on subscription plans, so popular news often costs you nothing at all.
