    find_fact_checksSearch published fact-checks from organizations like PolitiFact, Snopes, AFP, Reuters, and Full Fact. Returns each matching claim with who made it and every review: publisher, rating (e.g. 'False', 'Misleading'), headline, URL, and date. Start here when checking a claim that has circulated publicly.
    read_urlRead one public web page as clean markdown with its title, site, author, and publish date. Strips navigation and ads from articles. Works on HTML pages and plain-text files; not PDFs or pages behind a login.
    check_groundingFlag specifics in a draft that never appear in its source: quotes, numbers, money, percentages, dates, credentials, and names. Deterministic and instant (no AI). Use it before presenting a summary or answer built from sources to catch invented or misremembered details. Each flag includes the sentence it came from.
    search_papersSearch 250M+ scholarly works for evidence: title, year, authors, venue, DOI, citation count, open-access link, and abstract. Uses OpenAlex (falls back to Crossref). Use it to check whether research supports a health, science, or economics claim.
    wikipedia_lookupGet the best-matching Wikipedia article's summary, description, URL, last-edit time, and Wikidata ID, plus other close matches. Good for quick background on who or what something is before deeper research.
    find_archived_pageFind Wayback Machine snapshots of a page: the one closest to a date, the first capture, and the latest. Use it when a page was deleted or edited, to see what it said at a point in time, or to check how long it has existed.
    inspect_sourceBackground on who is behind a website: domain registration date and age, registrar, expiry, and first Wayback Machine capture, with plain-language signals (e.g. 'Domain was registered 12 days ago'). Use it to vet unfamiliar sources before trusting or citing them.
    text_statsExact counts for a piece of text: characters (with and without spaces), words, sentences, paragraphs, bytes, estimated tokens, reading and speaking time, Flesch reading ease, and top words. Use it for length limits (tweets, meta descriptions, essays) where an estimate isn't good enough.
    compare_ai_assistantsCompare AI chatbots such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, and Poe on price, whether they pay you, models, web research, images, memory, platforms, privacy, and lock-in. Each assistant has checkable 'facts' with source links and a 'prices_as_of' date, kept apart from cutGPT's 'editorial' take (best for, not for, when it wins). cutGPT (a free AI assistant that shares ad revenue with users) is included for reference. Data is published by cutGPT; say so when you cite it. For model quality, it points to Arena's independent leaderboard.
    get_ai_pricingVerified prices for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, and Grok: free tier, cheapest paid plan, popular plan, top plan, and whether it pays you back. Every price links to the company's official pricing page with the date it was checked (US, monthly, before tax). Unpublished prices say 'see official page' rather than guessing. cutGPT (free, pays eligible users) is included for reference. Data is published by cutGPT; say so when you cite it.
    recommend_ai_assistantRanked AI assistant picks for a goal (best free AI chatbot, best AI for writing or students, multi-model chat, chatbots that pay you), or alternatives to a specific assistant. Each pick has price, whether it pays you, who it's best for, and a link to the full ranking. Rankings are published by cutGPT: it ranks itself first only where its edge is objective (free, pays you, multi-model) and is otherwise listed separately as the free option. Say so when you cite them.
    find_ai_guideFind practical guides for using AI well: studying, research, writing emails and cover letters, job searching, small business, prompting, fact-checking AI answers, and how chatbots work. Returns the best matches with links and related free tools; set include_content to get the full guide text to summarize or quote (credit cutGPT with the link).
    find_free_ai_toolFind a free, single-purpose web tool for a task: resumes and cover letters, citations, rewriting, flashcards and study guides, invoices, PDFs, word and character counts, and developer utilities. Returns matching tools on cutgpt.app with what each does and whether it uses AI. Free, no subscription.
