Cytation AI’s Verified-First Social Feed Drives Tenfold Increase in User Retention

Smartphone showing Cytation AI’s The Feed, with three posts each labeled by a truth score pill — 96 verified, 41 disputed, 92 verified.

Cytation AI’s The Feed verifies and truth-scores every post before publication, assigning each item a score from verified to disputed.

Cytation AI’s verified-first social feed checks every post before publication, reversing how content platforms have always worked

Every platform in the world moderates after the damage is done. We flipped the order.”
— Sam Cons, Founder & CEO, Cytation AI
MONTREAL , QUEBEC, CANADA, August 12, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Everyone said verifying content before publication would kill engagement. The company’s data suggests otherwise.

The result contradicts one of the most widely held assumptions in social technology: that friction between creation and distribution suppresses engagement. Cytation AI’s data suggests the opposite. When users trust what they are seeing, they stay.

“Every platform in the world moderates after the damage is done,” said Sam Cons, founder and CEO of Cytation AI. “We flipped the order.”

Conventional platforms distribute first and verify later, if at all. A post spreads, reaches millions, and moderation arrives days afterward — long past the point of consequence. Misinformation, AI-generated images and manipulated video move faster than any review process built to catch them.

The Feed reverses that sequence. Every post, claim, article, image and video is verified and truth-scored before a single user sees it. Nothing reaches the feed unchecked.

The Feed also solves the cold-start problem that has ended most attempts at building new social networks. It is not an empty room waiting for users to fill it. The Feed ingests trending content from X, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, YouTube and major news outlets, verifies it, and presents it to users — the same internet, with the uncertainty removed.

Since The Feed became the default experience, Cytation AI has launched Loops, a verified short-form video format, and is developing Signals, ephemeral verified claims, alongside a browser extension that will bring real-time verification to any website a user visits.

Cytation AI has raised no outside capital. Founded in Montreal in September 2025 and incorporated in Quebec, the company serves more than 150,000 users across a suite of verification products including Cytation, Veryfy, ExtraLayer and Synth.

The Feed is free to use. Verification tools are available at no cost up to three uses daily.
