「 Disclaimer 」
None of this is "powered by AI". Its all hard-coded rules. Even the summary windows.

「 Can you see the vision? 」
Let’s be honest, nobody knows how to read anything online and nobody wants to keep a list of possible fallacies on their radar when they're just scrolling around.
You read a headline, your dopamine spikes, and after the 20th blog post written in some basement, claiming to be from a peer-reviewed expert, some of the dissonance rubs off and pollutes your own knowledge-base.

We built Viretta to act as filter that only highlights when this happens. It strips away the emotions and clickbait so you can see what matters. Trash in, trash out right? Why not make sure your trash is at least peer-reviewed trash?

Install it. Optimize your input. We legally can't promise to optimize your output, that depends on how good you are. Also, you probably shouldn't trust this extension with your life, use it as a first parse. At least until we get the funding to make this more robust.

「 Features 」

「 Syntax Lens 」 Modern media blurs the line between data and drama. We color-code reality for efficient processing. Purple Line: This is being PHRASED as a Fact. Whoever wrote it thinks it actually happened. Not to be confused for real facts, those don't exist. Purple Dotted Line: This is a Guess. The writer is using words like "might," "could," or "believes." We're working hard on this one, syntax on the internet might as well be a dadaist artform.

It instantly distinguishes between a scientist saying "This virus is fatal" (Fact-ish) and an influencer saying "This crystal heals chakras" (Delusion-ish). The difference is just structurally visible, this part wasn't complicated to make, just looking for concrete clauses vs abstract modifiers.

「 Citation Proximity 」 This measures the distance between your screen and the primary evidence.

10.0: Source. You are looking at raw data or a scientific paper. Optimal, good job.
9.0: One click away. Acceptable.
2.0: Trust Me Bro. The author cited nothing. You might be reading fiction.
1.0: The Void. You are on a lonely island of speculation. Close the tab if you intend to use what you learn here for anything rigorous, like your opinion, if you care about it.

「 Fallacy Filter 」 Humans fight dirty. We built a thing to point out the illogical insults so you don't have to be "on" all the time. (Warning: insults backed by logic may pass this filter, thats on you)

「 Hype Filter 」 Just because two things happen at the same time doesn't mean one caused the other. Ice cream sales do not cause shark attacks. At least thats what the sharks and hagen das want you to think right? Yellow Highlight: We highlight weasel words like "linked to" or "suggests."

「 Generalization 」 Flags when complex groups are treated as one "thing". In anthropology we call that "Othering". You know you're statistically less likely to give me the benefit of the doubt if I'm a different gender, religion, hair color, eye color, color color than you?

「 Bias Score 」 Based on Media Ownership and a curated Bias Rating. We check who signs the paychecks. If a hedge fund owns your local newspaper and they have a reason to not talk about the aforementioned hagen das and sharks collusion effort, you should get to know.

「 The click clacky modular lens thing 」

The ultimate modular lens deployment system. It features dual rotary turrets, precision-milled gear shifts, and a satisfying, high-tactile click every time you swap optics. It also turns different filters on and off depending on how many pretty colors you want on your page.

「 Data 」 We don't collect any of the data this extension asks for, honestly, we don't want to know. The extension needs to see the words you pull from the internet so it can read it and try to help you. That's it. Eventually we want to implement an external call to a LLM, let it form an opinion based on the rules we have hard-coded here. We can't afford that right now.

「 NON-ACQUISITION CHARTER 」 We operate under a strict Non-Acquisition Charter. If this text disappears, or if we announce a partnership with a major media conglomerate, assume the we have been compromised and so has the integrity of this extension.
