Funded by / Ownership
DigitEye India is owned by SoftmediaHub LLP. It appears primarily funded through digital advertising and limited sponsorship revenue.

It publishes correction policies and invites readers to submit potentially false claims, ensuring transparency and public accountability.
Analysis / Bias
DigitEye India consistently focuses on factual verification rather than editorialized reporting. Articles such as Is the White House producing $1 coins with Trump’s face? Fact Check provides neutral analysis, utilizing government documents, statements from the U.S. Treasury, and legal references. Similarly, Has Japan’s newly elected PM Sanae Takaichi created Ministry of Mass Deportations? Fact Check employs cross-verification with Japan Today, Asahi Shimbun, and official government websites.
Another story, Did Bangladesh women cricket team play in burqas at ICC Women World Cup 2025? Fact Check, confirms authenticity through image analysis, reverse searches, and video verification from the ICC’s official site.
The publication’s tone is strictly investigative, avoiding emotive or ideological framing. It adheres closely to structured methodologies and maintains transparency about its editorial process. While it occasionally covers politically sensitive topics, such as misinformation involving U.S. or Asian leaders, its focus remains on verifying factual accuracy rather than promoting political viewpoints.
Failed Fact Checks
- None in the Last 5 years. They are an IFCN fact checker.
Overall, we rate DigitEye India as Least Biased (slightly Left-Center) due to its neutral presentation and adherence to factual verification standards. It earns a High Factual rating for exceptional transparency, consistent sourcing, and full compliance with IFCN’s Code of Principles. (D. Van Zandt 10/30/2025)
