How to Use the ClickUp Fact Checker AI Agent

The ClickUp Fact Checker AI Agent helps you quickly review, verify, and correct information in your workspace so your content stays accurate and trustworthy.

This guide walks you through how to access the AI Agent, run fact checks, understand its responses, and apply corrections inside your tasks and documents.

What the ClickUp Fact Checker AI Agent Does

The Fact Checker AI Agent is designed to analyze content, detect potential inaccuracies, and suggest corrections. It acts as an assistant that focuses on the reliability of information rather than on style or tone.

On the official feature page at ClickUp Fact Checker AI Agent, you can see an overview of capabilities and example use cases.

Typical ways teams use this AI Agent include:

• Verifying claims in blog drafts, reports, or knowledge base articles.
• Reviewing dates, names, numbers, and statistics for accuracy.
• Checking product descriptions or release notes before publishing.
• Supporting compliance reviews by highlighting questionable statements.

Getting Started With ClickUp Fact Checker

Before you begin, make sure you have access to ClickUp AI features in your workspace. The Fact Checker AI Agent is one of several specialized agents available inside the platform.

Step 1: Open a Task or Doc in ClickUp

The Fact Checker works directly on the content stored in your workspace. Start by opening the item you want to review:

1. Log into your ClickUp workspace.
2. Open the relevant Space, Folder, or List.
3. Select a task or Doc that contains the text you want to fact-check.

You can work with long-form documents, comments, or task descriptions, depending on how your team organizes information.

Step 2: Access the ClickUp AI Panel

Inside your selected task or Doc, locate the AI tools panel. Depending on your layout and feature configuration, the AI entry point may appear as:

• An AI icon within the text editor toolbar.
• An AI option in the task or Doc sidebar.
• A contextual menu item when you select text.

Select the AI tools entry point to open the panel that includes the Fact Checker AI Agent.

Step 3: Choose the Fact Checker AI Agent

In the AI panel, you will see different specialized AI Agents. Look for the Fact Checker option. It may be labeled clearly as a dedicated fact-checking agent focused on validating information.

Once you select the Fact Checker AI Agent, the panel will prepare to analyze your current content.

How to Run a Fact Check in ClickUp

After the Fact Checker AI Agent is enabled, you can run a review on all or part of your content. Use these steps to get precise and useful results.

Step 4: Select the Content to Review

You can either review an entire task or Doc or a specific section of text. For more focused checks, highlight the relevant paragraph or list first.

Common selection strategies include:

• Highlighting any area that contains statistics or specific numeric claims.
• Selecting sections with external references or citations.
• Choosing newly added content that has not yet been reviewed.

Step 5: Run the Fact-Checking Command

With the text selected (or with the document active), trigger the Fact Checker command from the AI panel. The AI Agent will examine the content and return findings inside the same panel.

Depending on the length of the content and your network conditions, this may take a brief moment. When complete, you will see a summary of potential issues and suggested corrections.

Understanding Results From the ClickUp Fact Checker

The results from the Fact Checker AI Agent are designed to be clear and actionable so you can quickly apply improvements.

Types of Feedback You May See

Typical feedback includes:

• Flagged claims: Statements that appear uncertain, outdated, or inconsistent with common knowledge.
• Suggested corrections: Revised sentences or updated data points that improve accuracy.
• Requests for sources: Prompts indicating that a claim should be backed by a citation or link.
• Clarification notes: Comments where the AI Agent cannot fully verify the information but recommends clarification.

Reviewing and Applying Changes

Use the suggestions as a starting point rather than an automatic replacement. A careful workflow usually follows this pattern:

1. Read each flagged item and its explanation.
2. Confirm suggested corrections against your trusted sources.
3. Edit the content directly in your ClickUp task or Doc.
4. Re-run the Fact Checker AI Agent on sections where you made significant changes.

This process helps maintain high editorial standards while leveraging AI speed and convenience.

Best Practices for Using ClickUp Fact Checker

To get the most from the Fact Checker AI Agent, combine it with sound editorial practices and reliable reference material.

Combine AI With Your Own Sources

Always keep your own documentation, product specs, or official references close at hand. When the AI Agent suggests a change:

• Check internal documentation or official releases.
• Compare against authoritative external sources.
• Update both the content and any related internal references.

Use ClickUp for Collaborative Reviews

Because everything happens in one place, you can pair AI checks with human review:

• Tag teammates in comments next to claims that need confirmation.
• Use task assignees and due dates to schedule fact-check reviews.
• Create custom fields or statuses to indicate review progress.

This keeps your entire review pipeline traceable and audit-friendly.

Integrating Fact Checking Into Your ClickUp Workflow

The Fact Checker AI Agent becomes more powerful when it is part of your repeatable process rather than an occasional manual step.

Create a Reusable Review Checklist

Inside a task template or Doc template, add a checklist that includes a step for running the Fact Checker AI Agent. For example:

1. Draft initial content.
2. Run Fact Checker on the full draft.
3. Apply corrections and add sources.
4. Request peer review.
5. Final approval and publish.

Link this checklist to recurring content tasks like blog posts, release notes, or documentation updates.

Track Issues Found by the ClickUp Fact Checker

If your team regularly encounters certain types of inaccuracies, track them as separate tasks or subtasks. This lets you:

• Identify patterns in missing or outdated information.
• Plan documentation updates or data cleanup projects.
• Improve upstream processes so fewer errors reach the drafting stage.

When to Re-run the ClickUp Fact Checker

Information changes over time, so a claim that was accurate last quarter may no longer be correct. Build scheduled checks into your workflow by re-running the AI Agent:

• After each major edit to a page or document.
• Before publishing or republishing any public-facing content.
• On a periodic basis for evergreen documents that include time-sensitive data.

This is especially helpful for product details, pricing references, timelines, and roadmap summaries.

Learn More and Expand Your System

To deepen your workspace setup beyond fact-checking, you can explore strategic workflow and systems design resources. For example, consulting partners such as Consultevo share frameworks for building robust operations, documentation, and review processes that complement your AI tools.

As you refine how you use the ClickUp Fact Checker AI Agent, consider pairing it with automation, templates, and custom views so that fact-checking becomes a natural, consistent part of content creation across your organization.

By following the steps in this guide and using the Fact Checker AI Agent thoughtfully, you can maintain higher accuracy, streamline reviews, and keep your workspace content dependable at scale.
