About PointBreak
Political debate, checked by AI.
What Is PointBreak?
PointBreak is a political fact-checking platform that delivers short-form video highlights with AI-powered verdicts.
We take real political debates, extract the key moments, and run every verifiable claim through Sebastian — our AI fact-checker — so you can see what was said and whether it holds up.
Every clip is built around a full debate moment, not just a soundbite. You see the setup, the claim, and the reaction — so the verdict always comes with the context behind it.
No spin. No editorial slant. Just evidence-based verdicts on the claims that matter.
Meet Sebastian
Sebastian is PointBreak's AI fact-checker.
He analyzes debate transcripts, extracts verifiable claims, and checks each one against real sources using live web search. Every claim receives a verdict:
Tap the "Why?" drawer on any claim to see the sources Sebastian used. Every verdict is transparent, traceable, and linked to evidence.
Sebastian does not pick sides. He checks the facts.
What Makes PointBreak Different?
Every highlight on PointBreak includes:
Short-form debate highlights
Key moments from political debates, clipped and structured so you get the argument without the noise.
AI-powered verdicts
Every claim is checked by Sebastian and assigned a verdict: AI Verified, AI Contested, or AI Not Verified.
Linked sources
Tap any verdict to see the real sources Sebastian used. Every judgment is transparent and traceable.
Structured transcripts
See exactly what was said, who said it, and how it scored.
Engagement that surfaces substance
Likes and fire reactions push the most contested and compelling takes to the top.
Introducing Echo
The world's first asynchronous debate platform.
Watch a highlight. Disagree? Record a video response. Your response threads into a structured async debate — not a comment section, not a reply chain, but a real exchange of ideas on camera.
You see what was said.
You see how it scored.
You get to respond.
Echo turns passive viewers into active participants — without the chaos of live comments or the toxicity of open threads.
Echo is coming soon. The teaser is live in the app.
Our Standards
PointBreak does not promote or allow violence, hate speech, harassment, or incitement of any kind.
Our verdicts are evidence-based, not editorial. Moderation is based on behavior, not viewpoint. We fact-check claims from every part of the political spectrum with the same standard.
Every perspective is welcome. Bad behavior is not.
