  title: Lenz — AI Fact-Checking Review API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: '# Four API calls and one to run them


    A research-depth ladder: find claims, judge fast, prove deep, citecheck; `/review` runs them all. - `POST /extract` — enumerate every major verifiable claim in a document (up to 100, most check-worthy first, inputs to 50k chars), or in a public web page given its URL; an optional `focus` narrows the list to the claims you care about, and `locate: true` keeps only the claims traced back to the text, with where each is made. Costs no credits; fair-use cap 1,000/account/day. - `POST /assess` — a fast panel verdict, with the pages the reviewers looked at, typically 10-25s. Sync, 1 credit per claim. Send one text in `claim`, or a list of up to 20 in `claims` — one row per claim, same order, all checked in parallel. A text that makes more claims than one call checks gets the most check-worthy checked and the rest back as `more_claims`, free, to send on. - `POST /verify` — a full investigation, with verified citations, in ~90s. Async, 10 credits — or 5 with `depth: "low"`, a shallower check that comes back sooner. - `POST /citecheck` — does each cited source say what the text attributes to it: send pairs of a statement and its URL or DOI, or a whole text. Async; 1 credit per checked citation, refunded when a citation could not be checked (guide). - `POST /review` — the extract → assess → verify ladder on a whole draft, returning the issues with suggested rewrites in 2-4 min. Async, 1 credit per claim assessed + 10 (5 at `depth: "low"`) per claim verified. With `escalate.max_citations` (0-20, default 0) it also checks whether each source the draft cites says what the draft attributes to it, at 1 credit per checked citation (one that could not be checked is refunded) (guide). `more_claims` and `more_citations` list what the review found and did not check, at no cost; send them to `/assess` and `/citecheck` to check the rest. - Also `POST /ask/{id}` — ask follow-up questions grounded on a verification. ## Built for teams whose AI output is async or document-shaped


    Legal-memo generators, AI deep-research, due-diligence platforms, vertical agents producing structured deliverables, "report-as-a-service" companies. `/assess` opens the door to sync UX too — fast enough to gate a chat completion or a UI submit. ## API versions


    Lenz versions the shape of its responses by date: send `X-Lenz-API-Version: 2026-10-11` to choose this shape. This reference describes `2026-10-11`. A field `2026-05-13` still sends under an older name is listed `deprecated` beside the current one, and where its shape differs, the operation names the `...Legacy` component it receives (`x-lenz-versions` on the response). Every response carries `X-Lenz-API-Version`, naming the version it is in. Which version a request gets without the header, and what changed: https://lenz.io/docs/api-versions. ## Install the SDK


    ```bash

    pip install lenz-io # Python

    npm install lenz-io # Node / TypeScript

    ```


    Source on GitHub: lenz-io-python · lenz-io-node. ## The canonical integration: one /review call


    ```python

    from lenz_io import Lenz

    client = Lenz(api_key="lenz_...")


    # Extract, assess, and verify the doubtful claims in one call (async, 2-4 min)

    draft = "The EU AI Act took effect in March 2024. It sorts AI systems into four risk tiers."

    review = client.review_and_wait(text=draft)

    for i in review.issues:

    print(i.verdict, i.claim, i.suggested_rewrite)

    ```


    The default policy: a quick verdict on every claim (up to 20), and the deep check on the rows whose quick verdict is `False`, `Mostly False`, `Mixed` or `No Public Record`, or whose confidence is `low`, up to five. Change it in `escalate`. To deep-check the rows the cap left out (`escalation.disposition == "cap"`), send them to `/verify/batch`. A resend with the same `Idempotency-Key` within 24 hours returns the same review; a new key is a new review.'
