NO AI. NO AUTOMATIC VERDICTS.

A HAND-OPERATED HEADLINE PRESS EST. RIGHT NOW / ISSUE 001
Cut the bait.
Keep the claim.
Paste a headline. Strike the words that sell emotion rather than information. Then write the question the source still owes you.
04 / THE PROOF DRAWER
One line. Three ways to read it.
Keep up to three cuts of the same headline. Compare what survives each edit. Nothing is saved after this tab closes.
No pinned cuts yet. Make a cut, then pin it.

02 / TAP WORDS TO CUT
Tap once to cut, again to restore. You decide what matters; BAITCUT does not decide what's true.
03 / WHAT'S LEFT
THE METHOD
No red stamp that says “fake.”
A loaded word can be true; a quiet sentence can be false. This exercise makes framing visible, not truth measurable. Keep qualifiers if they matter. Find the original source before repeating a claim.
