What Verdict is
Verdict is a verification service. It runs a submitted question - optionally with your assistant's draft answer - through a structured adversarial debate between AI models from different vendors. An independent rival model critiques the draft, the models exchange rebuttals, and the debate is judged by a model from one of the two labs, alternating, on a transcript with every vendor identifier stripped before it is read. The judge returns a final answer with a confidence score and a disagreement map. All outputs are AI-generated and not professional advice.
Using Verdict from your AI assistant
Connect Verdict as a custom connector (Claude, Perplexity), app (ChatGPT), or MCP server (Cursor), sign in with your Verdict account, and your assistant can then call the tools listed below. Setup steps and copy-paste activation snippets live on the Modes page of your dashboard after signing in.
The eight tools
- debate
- Runs a full three-round adversarial debate between AI models from rival vendors and returns a judged synthesis with a confidence score and a disagreement map. It is judged by a model from one of the two labs, alternating, on a transcript with every vendor identifier stripped before it is read. Accepts a question, optional context, and an optional draft answer to put under attack via caller_draft. Intended for verification of consequential answers, not simple lookups.
- get_debate_result
- Fetches the status and result of a previously started debate by job id.
- quick_verify
- Returns a single independent critique of a provided draft answer from a rival-vendor model, with an agree or disagree verdict.
- set_mode
- Sets the caller's Verdict debate mode (standard, prompted_only, research, complex, full_integration, or code_adversarial). Changes only the caller's own configuration.
- get_my_mode
- Returns the caller's current Verdict debate mode and judge configuration.
- usage_left
- Returns the caller's remaining verdict quota, plan tier, and the period it applies to.
- email_verdict
- Sends the finished verdict of a completed debate to the signed-in user's own email address, once per debate. Call this when the user asks to be emailed the verdict. Requires the job_id of a completed debate.
- reconnect
- Checks whether the current Verdict connection is alive. If the session has expired, returns exact platform-specific steps the user can follow to reconnect. Call this whenever a Verdict tool fails with an authorization or session error.
Quotas
Usage is measured in verdicts. A standard debate costs 1 verdict, Research and Complex debates 3, an adversarial code review 5, the web engine 1.5, and a quick check 0.25. Each plan tier has a verdict allowance per period; when it's used up, the tools return a clear message and the allowance resets automatically. Check your remaining quota anytime with the usage_left tool or on your dashboard.
