Research and sources
Where the evidence on screen comes from.
Vidax researches your subject before it writes, and again while it builds each scene. The aim is that when the narration makes a claim, the screen shows the thing the claim is about.
Where it looks
Across the open web and the major platforms: Reddit, X, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Google and news archives, plus public records where a subject calls for them — court dockets and rulings, regulatory filings, academic papers, market data.
Which sources a run leans on depends on the niche. A legal video reaches for the ruling and the docket. A gaming video reaches for the stream clip and the platform's own statement. A science video reaches for the paper and highlights the sentence.
Current subjects versus settled ones
Vidax decides whether your topic needs today's news.
Current subjects get live coverage read before the script is written, so a video about something happening this week uses this week's real numbers rather than a general memory of it.
Settled subjects are written from the record. A documentary on a fifteenth-century siege does not need this morning's headlines, and skipping that search makes the video faster.
Depth
The effort tier at the Produce step decides how hard the research works: how many candidates are considered for each shot, whether a review pass runs on every beat, and on Verified, whether every factual claim is checked against a primary source and corrected before the video is made.
Verified also turns off AI-generated images entirely, which is why it is the right tier for law, finance and brand work.
What you see afterwards
Finished videos list the sources the run drew on, and Verified runs show a live fact-check panel while producing: how many claims were supported, corrected or hedged, with the reasoning for each.
