Show HN: Watsn.ai – Scarily accurate lie detector

https://watsn.ai/
3•flx1012•2mo ago
No signup required—just upload or record a video to verify its truthfulness. You can test it on anyone: internet clips, your significant other, or even yourself.

I'm aware there are tons of scammy 'lie detector' apps out there, but I built this using SOTA multimodal models in hopes of creating a genuine breakthrough in the space.

It analyzes micro-expressions, voice patterns, and context. In my own testing (over 50 trials), it reached about 85% accuracy, which honestly felt a bit scary.

It’s also fun to test on famous YouTube clips (like Obama talking about UFOs). I’d love to hear what you think and will be improving Watsn.ai every day based on your feedback!

We have currently had ~500 users since the launch last week, and the satisfaction survey shows that about 78% think the results were accurate so far (of course, the sample size is small, but I wanted to share the rough data).

Sometimes the AI still makes some silly mistakes, but I strongly believe that it will only get better.

Please let me know if you find any specific bugs or errors. I will be happy to improve it based on your valuable feedback.
