How It Works

Biasly leverages the computational power of AI to empower the legitimacy of your content.

Our proprietary algorithm was developed by data science experts who have specialized in predictive analysis, Python convolutional neural networks, among many others. These specializations are used to enhance machine learning and better predict biases in the media. As data enters and passes through the connected networks, the data is then transformed into a score on the meter.
At Biasly, we use natural language processing (NLP) and entity-specific sentiment analysis to transform said data. The aforementioned tools can then analyze text to see how the positive or negative sentiment affects the text. This process is done by the use of algorithms that learn a desired output, by analyzing a large amount of data that functions as an example of the desired output.
