Could you build this?

Partial The upload, transcription, and presentation layer is easy to vibe-code on top of multimodal AI APIs. The hard part is producing a credible truthfulness percentage, which needs validated models and evidence that the scores mean something, not just a prompt.

What it would actually take: A real version would chain speech-to-text with diarization, a multimodal LLM or fine-tuned audio/video model for verbal and non-verbal cues, and a scoring layer, all behind a web upload flow. The hard piece is validation: building labeled datasets and calibrating the scores so the percentage is defensible, which takes ML research and ideally a data partner.
