HYDAWAY DIGITAL LAUNCHES REALITYCHEK AI DETECTION BOT ON X, BRINGING REAL-TIME "IS IT REAL?" VERIFICATION TO ONE OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST PUBLIC CONVERSATIONS

Hydaway Digital Corp. has launched a new RealityChek AI (artificial intelligence) detection bot on the social platform X (formerly Twitter). The bot brings the company's multimodal content-verification technology directly into the public feed, allowing X users to invoke on-demand AI analysis of any piece of content -- simply by mentioning the bot -- and receive a verdict on whether it is authentic or AI generated in real time, at the exact moment they encounter it.

The bot works conversationally. A user replies to or mentions @realitychek_ai and asks whether a piece of content -- an image, video, audio clip or claim -- is real, fake or authentic. RealityChek's detection engine analyzes the content and responds publicly with a verdict, putting the company's full detection platform to work inside a single mention -- no app to download, no file to upload and no need to leave X.

"The damage from synthetic content happens in the feed, in real time, long before anyone thinks to visit a verification website," said Karl Kottmeier, chief executive officer of Hydaway. "By putting RealityChek on X, we're meeting people exactly where suspect content is created, shared and believed. Verifying a piece of content is now as simple as tagging @realitychek_ai in the conversation -- no apps, no uploads, no leaving the feed -- on one of the most active public platforms in the world."

Why X -- scale, speed and reach

X remains one of the largest and most influential public platforms in the world. Independent 2026 estimates place X's audience in the range of roughly 550 million to 620 million monthly active users, with daily active usage estimated at approximately 250 million. Because X no longer publishes official user metrics, these figures are third party estimates, but together they describe an audience measured in the hundreds of millions.

Critically for RealityChek, X is where news and real-time information travel. Industry reporting indicates that a majority of U.S. adults use X to follow news -- more than any other social platform -- and that false information can spread several times faster than accurate information. Independent analyses estimate that a growing share of content on the platform is now AI generated, underscoring exactly the problem RealityChek is built to solve.

That combination -- enormous reach, real-time velocity and a rising volume of synthetic content -- makes X a natural home for a live verification tool and a powerful channel to introduce RealityChek to a mainstream audience.

Why this matters -- the rising cost of synthetic content

The volume and cost of AI-generated deception have grown sharply. Industry sources report that tens of millions of AI images are now produced every day, and studies have found that people are frequently unable to distinguish AI-generated images from authentic ones. On the financial side, the Deloitte Center for Financial Services has projected that generative-AI-enabled fraud losses in the United States could reach approximately $40-billion (U.S.) by 2027, and independent research has attributed billions of dollars in documented global losses to deepfake-related fraud, a large share of it originating on social media platforms.

As synthetic media becomes cheaper and more convincing, the ability to quickly and independently verify content is becoming essential infrastructure for individuals, enterprises and platforms alike. The RealityChek bot on X is designed to make that capability accessible to everyone, instantly.

How RealityChek works

RealityChek is an enterprise-grade AI detection and content-verification platform operated through a wholly owned subsidiary of Hydaway Digital. Its Reality Engine aggregates multiple tuned AI models to deliver detection across image, video, audio and text, alongside identity-verification and liveness-detection capabilities. The platform's detection technology analyzes signals such as noise, frequency, compression and pixel-level artifacts to identify AI-generated and manipulated content. The new X bot is powered by this same detection stack, running on Hydaway's high-performance GPU (graphics processing unit) compute infrastructure.

The RealityChek X bot joins a growing suite of detection tools -- including Detect, the company's Web-based image and URL checker, and RealityChek's liveness and streaming audio detection capabilities for enterprise clients. The detection suite is available on-line.
