What does Pulse Claims Check do?

It grades every factual claim in a report against the Pulse Brain catalogue (16,000+ curated records). For each claim it returns an evidence tier (strong, moderate, weak, none), the supporting or contradicting citations, and an explanation. Useful for trade-association reports, white papers, journalist fact-checks and consultant deliverables.

What file types can I upload?

PDF, DOCX, plain text, or pasted text up to roughly 80 pages. The tool extracts the prose, identifies claim sentences and runs each one against the catalogue.

How is this different from a search engine or general AI?

Search returns documents; general AI summarises training data without source attribution. Pulse Claims Check evaluates each claim against a curated, citation-linked evidence catalogue and returns a per-claim verdict tied to specific peer-reviewed studies you can verify by DOI.

How much does it cost?

Free for everyone to try, with no login required. Optional pay-as-you-go bundles are available for high-volume users — £10 for a single report, £37.50 for 5 reports (£7.50 each) or £49 for 10 reports (£4.90 each). Research Partners get unlimited runs as part of their tailored access.

What is in the Pulse Brain catalogue?

16,000+ peer-reviewed studies and vetted industry reports across soil health, regenerative agriculture, nutrient density, food systems and human health. Sourced under Refreshed daily from Crossref, OpenAlex, PubMed, Europe PMC and trusted publishers, with abstract-grounded claim extraction and corroboration scoring.

Does Pulse Claims Check store my report?

Anonymous one-off checks are processed in-memory and not persisted beyond the result page. Logged-in members keep a private history of their own reports under their account. We never share submitted documents externally.

What does a SUPPORTED verdict mean?

A SUPPORTED verdict means the claim aligns with current peer-reviewed evidence.

Pulse Claims Check

Pulse Claims Check is a free tool that grades every factual claim in a report against the Pulse Brain catalogue of 16,000+ curated records, returning a per-claim verdict — Supported, Investigate, Critical or Evolution — with the citations behind it.

Upload a report or article. Pulse Brain checks all the claims in your document — grading every factual claim against the Pulse Brain catalogue (16,000+ curated records), flagging which ones contradict the evidence, which need further investigation, and which are well-supported, plus where there has been a recent evolution in the science. Free for everyone to try.

Every claim gets one of four verdicts

Critical

The claim contradicts the strongest available evidence in the catalogue.

Investigate

The claim is partially supported but conflicts with significant counter-evidence.

Supported

The claim aligns with current peer-reviewed evidence.

Evolution

The claim was correct historically but has been superseded by newer evidence.

Factual claims 0

Corporate claims 0

Factual claims are graded by intensive AI systems against the Pulse Brain catalogue where matches exist, and against broader peer-reviewed scientific consensus where they don't — every claim gets one of Critical / Investigate / Supported / Evolution. Corporate claims (mission, strategy, market position) are scored by a separate intensive-AI pass for clarity, grounding, and consistency. Each factual claim card also shows whether the author's own citation supports the claim, and where Pulse Brain has a stronger or more recent alternative.

Pulse Claims Check

Interpret with care. Pulse Claims Check is a research-assistance tool. Verdicts marked "Catalogue evidence" are grounded in named Pulse Brain records (linked in each claim card); verdicts marked "General scientific consensus" are based on broader peer-reviewed literature without a specific catalogue match. Corporate-claim grading reflects framing and grounding, not strategic merit. Always apply your own judgement — these grades are starting points for review, not adjudications.
