For Readers

What the words say is one thing.
What they're doing to you is another.

Every article makes construction choices. Word choice, framing, sourcing, emotional activation. Clear-Sight makes those choices visible. Not to tell you what to think. To show you what is happening so you can think for yourself.

The Framework

Bias is in the words.
Now you can see it.

You already know news is shaped. You already question headlines. What you have not had is a structured way to see how an article is built.

Every article is doing three things with its language.

Category 01

Words that
move you

Toward an emotional reaction, toward a particular conclusion, toward a side.

  • Balance
  • Logic
  • Autonomy
Category 02

Words that
inform you

About what is sourced, what is specific, what is claimed and supported.

  • Evidence
  • Sourcing
  • Specificity
  • Claims
Category 03

Words that
frame the story

Through context, complexity, and whether the shape holds.

  • Context
  • Nuance
  • Consistency

Either the pattern is present or it isn't.

Ten signals. Three categories. That is the difference between opinion and observation.

What You Get

A complete reading toolkit
inside every article.

Your Article Profile

Ten scores. One fingerprint. Instant clarity.

See how the article scores across all ten framework dimensions — balance, sourcing, emotional activation, and more. A composite score for the quick read. Individual scores for the deeper one. A visual fingerprint that shows you the construction pattern at a glance.

News Literacy

What the article is doing — and why it matters.

Every analysis explains the framing choices, the language patterns, and the structural decisions that shape how you receive the story. It shows you what the article emphasizes, what it leaves out, and how a stronger version would serve you better. This is where reading becomes a skill.

Research Tools

The questions you should be asking.

What context is missing. What claims deserve scrutiny. Where this article sits in the timeline. Whose perspectives were left out. Research Tools gives you a map of where a more complete understanding begins — before you search, share, or form an opinion.

Deep Research

Go beyond the article. In one click.

Ask Clear-Sight searches across current reporting and returns a structured, multi-source view. Additional perspectives, missing context, and independent data — so you can evaluate the claims yourself instead of taking one article's word for it.

The Knowledge Lens

Where does your literacy
meet your attitude?

Most reading tools tell you about the news. Clear-Sight also tells you something about you.

01

Take the literacy assessment

The Knowledge Lens is a short, framework-grounded quiz. It measures how well you can identify the ten construction signals in real article excerpts — not what you believe about the news, but what you can see in it.

02

Tell us how you feel about the news

Separately, you tell us about your relationship with news today — trust, frustration, fatigue, what you actively avoid. No judgment. Just the honest baseline.

03

Get the crosscheck readout

Clear-Sight compares the two. The result is a one-page readout showing where your observed literacy aligns with your felt attitude — and where it diverges.

High literacy, high distrust? You see clearly and the patterns concern you. The readout shows which signals you're picking up most.
High trust, lower literacy? You're optimistic about the news but may be missing construction patterns the framework can teach.
Avoiding news entirely? The readout maps your fatigue to specific signal patterns — so you know what to look for, and what to skip.

Take the Lens again after a month of using Clear-Sight. You'll see exactly how your literacy moved — and whether your attitude moved with it.

Your Reading Dashboard

Stay informed on what you care about — not what an algorithm decides.

Clear-Sight saves every story you analyze, so you can follow the threads that actually matter to you and watch how your reading takes shape over time. You choose what to follow. No feed steering you, no algorithm deciding what you see.

Stories You Follow

Every article you analyze is saved to your dashboard. Revisit the stories you care about and keep tracking how they develop — on your terms, not a feed's.

Source Diversity

How many sources you read from, how concentrated your diet is, and where you might broaden.

Lens Trajectory

See your Knowledge Lens score evolve over time, and track whether your literacy and attitude are converging or diverging.

Common questions
before you install.

No. Clear-Sight doesn't render verdicts on truth, accuracy, or political lean. It shows you what an article is doing — how it's constructed, what's quoted vs. unattributed, where the emotional language sits, what context is missing.

The conclusions stay yours. We just give you a clearer picture of what you're looking at.

The free tier is real. You can install the extension, analyze articles, take the Knowledge Lens, and use the dashboard without paying. We have a paid tier for heavier usage and Deep Research, but the framework itself is not paywalled.

Your reading is yours. We store the analyses you trigger so you can see your history and trajectory in the dashboard, but we don't sell or share your individual reading patterns. Aggregate, anonymized data may inform research on the framework itself — never a profile of you.

Read the full privacy policy.

It works on the vast majority of English-language news sites — major outlets, regional papers, newsletters, magazines, and most blog platforms. If a site uses unusual layout or aggressive paywalls, the extension will tell you why analysis didn't run instead of failing silently.

Bias rating sites tell you about the outlet. We tell you about the article. The same outlet can publish a measured news report and a directionally framed opinion piece on the same day — and Clear-Sight will score them differently because their construction is different.

Outlet labels travel with reputation. Article-level signals travel with the text.
