Clarifies Complex or Controversial topics 

Lighthouse flags areas where 

• Key context is missing 

• Claims rely on unstated assumptions

• Concepts may be oversimplified or unclear 

This helps readers avoid misunderstanding issues with a deep technical background, relating to science, health, politics, technology, or social debates. 

Reveals Author Intent 

Lighthouse helps readers understand

• What the author is trying to accomplish (persuade, inform, advocate, sell, etc.) 

• Where claims, evidence, and opinions appear 

We make it easy to follow arguments and recognize when writing is shaping opinion rather than presenting facts. 

Surfaces Bias and Credibility Concerns

Lighthouse never makes a claim. Rather, Lighthouse: 

• Highlights potential bias or framing 

• Flags credibility concerns, such as weak sourcing or lack of evidence 

Stay in control with what you’re reading and gain clearer insight on the information that you’re digesting. 

Supports Informed Decision-Making

By clarifying claims, evidence, and intent, Lighthouse aims to help readers: 

• Make better personal, professional, and civic decisions

• Compare multiple sources more effectively

• Avoid misinformation and oversimplification
