Project overview

snakeoil-radar watches a user-maintained list of TikTok handles, ranks fresh videos by reach and engagement, extracts transcripts, and checks concrete claims against PubMed literature. A traffic-light verdict is issued only when a PMID and link can be retrieved; otherwise the finding stays UNVERIFIED. The free setup uses yt-dlp, curl, and optionally local Whisper for missing captions.
