ProofThread

ProofThread is a web app (with a lightweight browser extension) that helps professionals publish credible thought leadership without spending hours hunting sources and formatting citations. You paste a draft or outline, and the AI flags unsupported claims, suggests where evidence is needed, and pulls candidate sources from reputable outlets (journals, standards bodies, government data, major publications). It then generates a “proof thread” view: each paragraph mapped to quotes, stats, and links, with confidence notes and a one-click export to LinkedIn posts, newsletters, and blog CMS formats. The app also keeps a private source library and alerts you when a cited link changes, paywalls, or becomes outdated—so your posts don’t rot. It’s not a magic “make me famous” tool; it’s a credibility and workflow tool for people who already have something to say but need to ship faster with fewer factual landmines.
