Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product provide visual verification of electronic data. A computer system accesses an electronic document. The computer system parses the electronic document to identify an assertion about a person. The computer system identifies an organization that maintains records capable of sustaining the assertion. The computer system sends a request to the organization to search for information about the person that substantiates the assertion. In response to receiving a reply that substantiates the assertion, the computer system generates a verification badge in the context of the organization. The computer system transforms the electronic document to display a verified document that associates the verification badge with the assertion. The computer system displays the verified document, including the verification badge in association with the assertion.
