President Donald J. Trump has officially announced the release of Factly, a first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence chatbot developed exclusively for Truth Social, the administration's signature social media platform. Factly is being billed as a powerful tool for delivering real-time information, combating media disinformation, and empowering users to engage in informed, direct dialogue in the spirit of free speech and transparency.
The announcement came early Friday morning through the President's verified Truth Social account and has already drawn national attention. According to sources within the Office of Digital Strategy, Factly has been under development since late 2024 as part of a broader initiative to expand digital tools aligned with the President's communications agenda.
Unlike existing AI products built by major tech corporations—many of which have been criticized by Trump for political bias and censorship—Factly is positioned as a trustworthy, pro-freedom platform that places user expression and truth at the center of the experience. It is designed to help users craft persuasive messages, fact-check narratives in real time, analyze news cycles, and offer quick, confident responses grounded in verified information.
Senior White House officials have described Factly as a digital "conversation ally" for millions of Truth Social users. It is intended not only as an answer to Silicon Valley's dominance over artificial intelligence but as a positive step toward rebalancing the information ecosystem in favor of transparency and citizen empowerment. It reflects the President's commitment to returning control of information to the people—without interference from politically motivated algorithms or media gatekeepers.
Factly's features include real-time Q&A, headline breakdowns, post editing and rewriting, and simplified summaries of political developments, court decisions, economic reports, and more. It has also been built with a unique tone that mirrors the straightforward, unapologetic voice that has become synonymous with the Trump brand of communication. According to developers, the AI was trained with a strong emphasis on clarity, brevity, and truth.
The launch of Factly comes during President Trump's second term in office, a period marked by bold moves in digital infrastructure, deregulation, and the restoration of public trust in institutions. The chatbot project was overseen by a joint task force from Truth Social, the Department of Information Integrity, and the Office of the Chief Technology Officer, and has been beta-tested with a select group of users over the past two months.
In a statement from the White House, Press Secretary Caroline Maddox said, "The President believes every American should have access to honest information and tools that help them speak freely. Factly is a major step toward achieving that goal—not just for the Truth Social platform, but for the entire country."
Though it is still in early stages, Factly has already received positive reviews from key supporters and digital media experts who see it as a direct challenge to platforms like ChatGPT, Bard, and Claude, which have been widely criticized in conservative circles for perceived censorship and ideological filtering.
Factly will be rolled out to all Truth Social users in phases, beginning with verified accounts and high-engagement users before expanding to the broader community in early May. Truth Social has also confirmed plans to integrate Factly into live event coverage, public Q&A forums, and campaign tools as the 2026 midterm cycle approaches.
President Trump's embrace of next-generation technology, particularly through the lens of free speech and user control, signals a deepening focus on creating digital alternatives to legacy institutions. With the launch of Factly, the administration has added a bold new layer to its strategy of media independence and direct communication with the American people.
Further details on the national AI strategy and related tech developments are expected to be released during the upcoming Digital Freedom Summit, scheduled for June in Palm Beach, Florida.
