Source Check Verdicts
partial85% confidence
Last checked: 4/13/2026
The source confirms the funding round name ('Founding Grant' / 'Ada Lovelace Institute'), the date (2018-03), and the general magnitude of funding. However, there is a discrepancy in the exact amount: the source states '£5 million over five years' while the record claims '6,674,500' (approximately £6.67 million). The source's £5 million figure is clearly stated multiple times and is the total commitment over five years, not a single-year amount. The record's figure of £6.67 million does not match the source's £5 million commitment. This is a genuine numeric contradiction, not a rounding or formatting difference.
