Submission DescriptionAtvida is a browser extension that uses AI to detect misinformation on social media and websites. It provides instant fact-checking, bias detection, and scam alerts without disrupting the user experience. Designed for everyday internet users, Atvida aims to combat the spread of false information.
Atvida combats the spread of misinformation, which costs the economy $78 billion annually. By providing easy-to-use fact-checking tools, it empowers users to make informed decisions and share verified information. This supports public health, education, and social stability.
Initially, we will offer premium features to power users, aiming for 1% of our user base to subscribe. As we grow, we'll monetize valuable social media post data collected by our extension. By 2028, we plan to introduce a B2B brand reputation management service, increasing gross revenue.
