Introducing Fact Check: catch outdated facts before they become training
Ervy Team
We’ve just released Fact Check. It's a new step in course creation that reviews the document you upload and flags facts that look wrong or outdated before they reach your employees.
Courses are only as accurate as the documents behind them, and documents age. Regulations change, deadlines move, and an outdated policy turned into training spreads the mistake to every employee. Fact Check catches it first.
How it works
Course overview: at the top of each course, you see how many lessons contain findings.
Lesson markers: each affected lesson is marked in the course list, so you know exactly where to look.
Two levels of findings: "Likely incorrect" means the fact likely contradicts current rules or data and should be fixed before publishing. "Worth confirming" means it may be right but deserves confirmation.
Up-to-date regulations: recent dates and newly adopted rules in your document aren't flagged as errors just because they're new.
For example, if your data protection policy says the company has 7 days to notify the regulator of a breach, Fact Check marks that lesson as possibly incorrect, because GDPR sets the deadline at 72 hours.
You stay in control. Fact Check shows you what to review, and you decide what goes out.
