+# Crosscheck
+
+**A second opinion for AI photo descriptions.** Several vision models, running on your own
+computer, describe the same photo. Crosscheck tells you what they all agree on, and, first and
+most clearly, where they disagree.
+
+Built for blind and low-vision people, who use AI descriptions for labels, medicine, mail and
+screens but have no easy way to tell when a description is wrong.
+
+## Why
+
+A single AI description sounds equally confident when it is right and when it is wrong. A study
+at ASSETS 2025, [*Surfacing Variations to Calibrate Perceived Reliability of MLLM-generated Image
+Descriptions*](https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.15692) (Meng Chen, Akhil Iyer, Amy Pavel), found that
+when blind and low-vision participants were shown where several models' descriptions varied,
+they spotted **4.9 times as many unreliable claims** as with a single description (2.62 against
+0.53 per image). 11 of 15 participants ranked that presentation as their favourite, and all of
+them wanted to use it in the future.
+
+Crosscheck brings that idea to models that run locally through [Ollama](https://ollama.com):
+free, offline, and the photo never leaves your computer.
+
+## How it works
+
+1. Each model lists what it sees as short, separate facts, and quotes any text it can read.
+2. Facts that say the same thing are merged. Facts that differ in a **number or quoted text**
+   ("Ibuprofen 200 mg" against "400 mg") are kept apart, because that is where errors hide.
+3. Every model looks at the photo again and judges each fact the others stated: yes, no, or unsure.
+4. You hear a short summary first, for example:
+
+   > A pill bottle on a wooden table. The 3 models agree on 6 of 9 details. They disagree about:
+   > The label says "Ibuprofen 200 mg"; The label says "Ibuprofen 400 mg".
+
+   Then, on demand: what every model agrees on, where they disagree (and which model said what),
+   and details not every model could judge.
+
+**Agreement is not proof.** Models can make the same mistake. For medicine, money or safety,
+confirm with a person or another trusted source. Crosscheck never says "verified".
+
+## Install
+
+1. Install [Ollama](https://ollama.com) and pull three vision models from different families
+   (different families make different mistakes):
+
+   ```sh
+   ollama pull qwen3-vl:4b-instruct
+   ollama pull gemma4:e4b
+   ollama pull granite3.2-vision:2b
+   ```
+
+2. Install and start Crosscheck (Python 3.10+, no other dependencies):
+
+   ```sh
+   uv tool install crosscheck-vision      # or: pipx install crosscheck-vision
+   crosscheck serve
+   ```
+
+   It opens http://127.0.0.1:8765 in your browser.
+
+Choose other models with `--models a,b,c` (or `CROSSCHECK_MODELS`). With a 12–16 GB GPU, expect
+about 30–90 seconds per photo while Ollama swaps the models in and out; a CPU works, slowly.
+
+## Using it
+
+- **Web app**: choose a photo, optionally ask a question ("What does the label say?"), press
+  *Check photo*. Progress is announced; when the result is ready, focus moves to it. Everything
+  works with the keyboard and a screen reader. A checkbox can also read the result aloud with
+  the browser's own voice.
+- **Terminal**: `crosscheck describe photo.jpg --question "What does the label say?"`, or `--json`
+  for the full result.
+
+The web app shrinks the photo in your browser before sending it, which also removes metadata
+such as GPS location.
+
+## Privacy and security
+
+- Runs on 127.0.0.1 only. Photos stay in memory and go only to your Ollama. Nothing is logged.
+- Requests must come from the app itself: a non-local `Host` (DNS rebinding) or a foreign
+  `Origin` (another website) is refused. A strict Content-Security-Policy blocks outside content.
+- Model output is shown as text, never as HTML.
+
+## Status and limits
+
+- v0.1, for desktop browsers on the same computer. Using a phone camera over Wi-Fi needs HTTPS
+  and is planned for v0.2.
+- Merging facts across models uses word overlap, so two phrasings of one fact are sometimes
+  listed separately; each still gets judged.
+- Small local models are weaker than the cloud models in the study. We are measuring how well
+  their disagreement predicts real errors on photos taken by blind people (VizWiz), and will
+  publish the results and timings here.
+
+Feedback from blind and low-vision users matters most: please open an issue or email
+admin@rushlabs.ai.
+
+## Development
+
+```sh
+python -m unittest discover -s tests -v
+```
+
+Tests run against a fake Ollama: merging and judging, a failing model, the web app's security
+checks, the job queue and the CLI.
+
+## Licence
+
+Apache-2.0. Built by [Rush Labs](https://rushlabs.ai), an applied AI lab. The models keep their
+own licences (all three defaults are Apache-2.0).
