Kodawire is free. Lean, factuality, ownership, and blindspots are not paywalled. Ratings are tools, not verdicts.
Outlet lean and factuality are ratings of the publication, assigned by the Kodawire team for a core list of major outlets and provisional for everything else. Grouping articles into stories and writing summaries are automated, with AI. Credibility is a 0–100 average of the covering outlets' factuality ratings, not a fact-check of the story. Center does not mean true. Full methodology.
A masthead is not a reporter. Guest essays, wire copy and individual desks can lean differently from the outlet's usual label, so treat the outlet rating as context, not a judgement of a single article.
Identical reporting is merged into a single card. Left, center, and right frames stay on the story so you compare once instead of reading the same launch ten times.
Ownership type is shown where we have it. If a rating, grouping or summary is wrong, email hello@kodawire.com with the story link and we will correct it.
Each story on the trending page is scored using a weighted formula across the selected window (24h, 7d, 14d):
