The Bona Llaf application, developed as part of the HibridLAB program, provides a simple and effective way to check claims against verified information, promoting transparency and accountability in the digital sphere.
Bona Llaf is an easy-to-use tool that addresses one of the biggest challenges to the integrity of online information. Once installed, the app runs in the background as users browse through various articles online. During reading, the app automatically identifies key claims within the text, highlights them, and provides a direct link to a verified analysis from Hibrid.info related to the identified claims in the article.
For example, if a news article presents a contentious claim on any topic, users can hover over the highlighted text in the article to see a summary of the analysis or click on the opened section to read the full fact-check from Hibrid.info. This approach saves time and empowers readers to engage critically with the information they consume.
Bona Llaf is a valuable tool for media outlets, journalists, and everyday readers alike. For media and journalists, it offers a quick reference point to verify sources and claims, ensuring the integrity of their reporting. For the general public, it adds a layer of protection against unverified or contentious claims.
Developed as part of the HibridLAB initiative, funded by the U.S. Embassy in Kosovo, Bona Llaf reflects a collaborative effort to promote digital culture and combat the spread of unverified claims. This development aligns with Hibrid.info’s mission to empower the broader audience with innovative tools that strengthen critical thinking and trust in information sources.
Bona Llaf is simple to use and easy to access. The application runs seamlessly in the background, requiring no technical expertise to operate. With a distinctive design and intuitive features, it integrates naturally into the online browsing experience.
Through Bona Llaf, in cases of unverified claims, users are redirected to Hibrid.info, a well-known platform dedicated to fact-checking and claim verification, where they can access detailed analyses of the claims they encounter. This ensures that users not only verify the claims but also understand the context and methodology behind the fact-checking process.
Bona Llaf is more than a digital tool—it is part of a broader project to encourage and enhance the safe use of media content. By offering instant access to verified information, Bona Llaf enables users to make informed decisions about the reliability of the content they encounter.
The application is free to download and easy to use, making it an essential tool for anyone who values truth and the integrity of information.
