Birdwatch is a collaborative way to add helpful context to Tweets and keep people better informed

Birdwatch is a pilot program that aims to create a better-informed world. It empowers people on Twitter to collaboratively add helpful notes to Tweets that might be misleading.

  • Contributors write and rate notes

Contributors are people on Twitter, just like you, who chose to enroll in the pilot to write and rate notes. The more people that participate, the better the program becomes. Learn more about how Birdwatch works.

  • Only notes that people find helpful appear on a Tweet

Birdwatch doesn't work by majority rules. To identify notes that are helpful to a wide range of people, Birdwatch ratings requires agreement between contributors who have sometimes disagreed in their past ratings. This helps prevent one-sided ratings. Learn more about how Birdwatch identifies helpful notes.

  • Twitter doesn't choose what shows up, the people do

Twitter doesn't write, rate or moderate notes (unless they break the Twitter rules.) We believe giving people a voice to make these choices together is a fair and effective way to add information that helps people stay better informed.
