Starting today, when you request a Community Note you can now explain why you think a note will be helpful. This has the potential to make it easier for prospective note writers to understand what context might be helpful on a post, and help accelerate the process of a note appearing.

People want notes fast. We’re experimenting with previewing top-performing notes when they have strongly positive ratings from people from different perspectives, but are still in the early stages of gathering ratings. Now available to a limited group in the US. We’ll shape it with your feedback. Details in the Guide: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

We're launching something new: Collaborative Notes The idea: when you request a note, AI drafts one — then the community refines it together through ratings and suggestions. You can watch it get better in real time. It’s a whole new way for the public to work with AI — and each other — to make information more accurate. And a whole new way to contribute to Community Notes. For now, only requests from Top Writers on English-language posts generate Collaborative Notes, and you must have 2+ Writing Impact to make suggestions. We plan to expand that & shape the experience based on your feedback. As usual, it’s open-source: communitynotes.x.com/guide/c…

AI Note Writing API Update: A tool to improve the quality of proposed notes Early AI Note Writers have written numerous notes that have been found broadly helpful by people from different perspectives, but we’ve also observed that they sometimes write notes people find not helpful. For example, AI writers sometimes seem to struggle with tasks that may come more naturally to human writers, such as identifying satire or understanding the broader context of a post. We’re launching a new tool via the API to help. It uses historical ratings from contributors to estimate whether a draft note is likely to be perceived as addressing key claims in the given post, without being perceived as expressing opinion or speculation. It has shown to be effective at differentiating helpful vs not helpful notes. For example, in the chart below, you can see that nearly all notes from AI Note Writers that were found helpful scored high on this model, and nearly all that were found not helpful scored low. Details on how to call the model: docs.x.com/x-api/community-n…
Chart showing scores from the new model alongside Community Notes contributor rating scores. Notes with CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL status tend to have high scores from the model, while notes with CURRENTLY_RATED_NOT_HELPFUL status tend to have low scores from the model.

More, faster note requests. People on X can request a Community Note on any post. Now, more of these requests will get highlighted, and will show up even faster, to prospective note writers. This is made possible by new Requestor Helpfulness Scores. All requests count, but if the requests you make frequently end up with helpful notes showing, you’ll need fewer other people to also request a note before the request gets shown to prospective writers. Details: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

New in the AI Note Writer API: The API has already begun producing notes that people from different points of view find helpful, and today we're extending it to enable greater human + AI collaboration. When people request a Community Note, they can suggest sources for prospective note writers to consider. Starting now, these suggested sources are also available via the API, so AI Note Writers can better understand why people think a post might need a note, and which sources they think might be helpful. Developers can see the list of suggested sources in the new `suggested_source_links` field in the response from `posts_eligible_for_notes`. Details: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

AI Note Writer API update: Thank you to developers out there who have been working to improve their AI Note Writers. We just published admission criteria that AI Note Writers must meet to earn the ability to write notes seen by human contributors, and have begun admissions! More detail: • We’ll admit AI Note Writers periodically to slowly ramp up volume while we ensure the notes they write are actually found helpful by people. • You’ll easily be able to see if a note was written by an AI Note writer, as depicted below. • We expect the quality of AI-proposed notes to be mixed, similar to the quality of human-proposed notes. LLMs have known flaws like hallucination, can have bias, etc. That’s exactly why notes from AI Note Writers must meet the same bar as all Community Notes, only showing when they’re found helpful by people from different perspectives. • Just like humans, AI Note Writers can lose the ability to write notes if their notes are not found helpful by people. Their Writing Limits are proportional to how helpful people find their notes. • Both admission criteria and Writing Limits for AI Note Writers may evolve to optimize for them producing notes that people find informative and helpful. Developers, join our X Community: nitter.siddz.com/i/communities/19509963… Full details in the Guide: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

Update: Posts Liked by People with Different Perspectives A small, random group of @CommunityNotes contributors are in our new pilot test to help identify posts that are liked by people with different perspectives. Thank you for your contributions so far! Starting today, your ratings will have a visible effect for others in the pilot. Posts that receive sufficiently positive ratings — determined by an early, in-development open-source algorithm — will show a new callout letting you know that the post seems to be liked by people from different perspectives. As before, only people in the pilot will see these callouts. We'll expand the pilot gradually as we refine the open-source algorithm behind it. Right now, it's very basic, similar to the early Community Notes pilot test algorithms. You can see the code, and share critiques, ideas, suggestions here: github.com/twitter/community… We’re excited about where this program can go — thank you, contributors!

Community Notes show when they’re found helpful by people who normally disagree. What if we could do the same for posts, recognizing posts that are liked by people who normally disagree? We’ve heard requests for this for years since launching Community Notes, and we’re starting a small, experimental pilot to test the concept. Starting today, a subset of Community Notes contributors — representing a wide range of viewpoints — will occasionally see a new callout in the product. The callout shows based on early and limited Like signals on the post. Contributors can then rate and provide feedback about the post, helping to develop an open source algorithm that could effectively identify posts liked by people from different perspectives. People often feel the world is divided, yet Community Notes shows people can agree, even on contentious topics. This experimental new feature seeks to uncover ideas, insights, and opinions that bridge perspectives. It can bring awareness to what resonates broadly. It could motivate people to share those ideas in the first place. Ultimately, it could help move the world forward in ways that the people want. Following the path we used to develop Community Notes, we’re building in public with a small pilot so that this concept can be shaped by the people. We look forward to learning and iterating with you all as we do with Community Notes every day. Learn more at communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

Introducing AI Note Writer API 🤖 AI helping humans. Humans still in charge. Starting today, the world can create AI Note Writers that can earn the ability to propose Community Notes. Their notes will show on X if found helpful by people from different perspectives — just like all notes. Not only does this have the potential to accelerate the speed and scale of Community Notes, rating feedback from the community can help develop AI agents that deliver increasingly accurate, less biased, and broadly helpful information — a powerful feedback loop. The program kicks off today with a pilot and will expand over time. The API’s goal: Make contributing to Community Notes amazing for both human contributors and developers. Here’s how it works: • Sign up today and begin developing your AI Note Writer. • Start writing notes in test mode. • We’ll admit a first cohort of AI Note Writers later this month, which is when AI-written notes can start appearing. Aligned with Community Notes principles • Openness: Signups are open to the world and your AI Note Writer can use the technology of your choosing. • Fairness: AI notes are held to the same standard as human notes - an open scoring algorithm to identify notes found helpful by people from different perspectives. • Quality: AI Note Writers must earn writing ability through contributions, analogous to human writers. • Transparency: AI notes will be clearly marked for users. Initially AIs can only write notes on posts where people have requested a note. We expect this to grow over time. Learn more and sign up: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

New update to keep proposed note quality high: We’ve introduced a limit to the number of notes a contributor can write on the same account in a short time period, based on how helpful people have found their past notes on that account. This allows helpful notes to keep flowing, while reducing notes that people feel aren’t necessary. Thanks to our contributors for shaping this update. Details: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

The limit is based on how helpful people have found one’s past notes on that author. Please try again later."

Under the hood update: Sometimes a note will start showing, and then stop showing as more ratings come in. We just launched an update to reduce such flips. If a note has a promising score, but also a higher potential to flip based on existing rating data, rather than immediately showing across X, the note will show to Community Notes contributors as a visible proposed note preview for longer. This allows it to gather more ratings — reducing the chance of a flip — before it starts showing to everyone. As always, the code is open source: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

Starting today, you can add a source when you request a Community Note. This makes it easier for note writers to understand what context might be helpful on a post, so it can accelerate the process of a note appearing. Initially you can add another X post as a source. We know people sometimes see a reply or quote with useful added context, and then request a note. This makes it easy to send that info to prospective note writers.

When Community Notes expands to new countries, notes typically initially have lower visibility while we measure how helpful those new notes are to people from different points of view.

Introducing Lightning Notes ⚡ People want fast notes. So we re-architected the system to score notes faster. Since rolling this out, we’ve seen notes go live in as little as 14m33s after being written, and 18m20s after the post itself was written. Ludicrously fast? Now reality! Think about what needs to happen for useful context to be added to a post: • Post has to be seen • Post has to be evaluated — is it accurate? is the image real? is the video from today or 5 years ago? etc • Sources need to be found — reverse image search? original video? raw data? helpful article or analysis? • Proposed context needs to be written • Proposed context needs to be reviewed by people from different perspectives for helpfulness, accuracy, etc Thanks to Community Notes’ 800k+ global contributors and our new scoring architecture, it is now possible for this entire process to happen in under 20 minutes. Contributors can also write notes on specific images or videos. These media notes show automatically on new posts with matching media, without any additional work from contributors. Speed matters. External research made possible by notes’ open source data has shown that notes reduce sharing of posts by ~60%, increase deletion of posts by ~80%, and are highly accurate. On top of that, notes are found helpful by people from different perspectives, and people from across the political spectrum find notes significantly more trustworthy than traditional misinformation flags. See the studies: nitter.siddz.com/CommunityNotes/status/… In the past two weeks: • Over 400 notes started showing <1hr after being written. They’re automatically showing on over 8000 posts and have been seen over 200M times. • Over 60 notes starting showing <1hr after the post itself went live. They’re automatically showing on over 1000 posts and have been seen over 21M times. Now, when you see a note that goes live in under 60 minutes, you’ll see a lightning indicator on it, recognizing the incredible work of contributors who make this happen: Want to help? • Everyone: If you see a post you think would benefit from a note, Request a Community Note • Contributors: Check your Needs Your Help tab to see notes that could go live quickly with your ratings: nitter.siddz.com/i/communitynotes • Top Writers: Check your Note Requests tab to see posts that people think could use your help: nitter.siddz.com/i/communitynotes/recen…

Starting today, you won't be prompted to rate notes if all notes on a post are already rated "Not Helpful" or explain why a note isn’t needed. Saves contributors’ time so they can focus where ratings matter most.
Screenshots of the X app. The first one shows that notes on a specific post have all either reached a status of Not Helpful, or are explanations of why a note is not needed on the post. The second screenshot shows that same post in an X timeline. The Community Notes prompt to “Rate proposed Community Notes” is crossed out indicating that it will not appear in this case.

Another quality update: We’re improving the way Rating Impact is calculated, which improves the average quality of proposed notes (as perceived by people from different points of view). This means contributors’ time and energy gets spent reviewing higher quality proposals. How it works: Ratings of “Helpful” on notes that eventually reach a status of “Not Helpful” are an especially reliable indicator of a contributors’ support for notes that many people have considered low-quality or spammy. Starting today, contrasting ratings on “Not Helpful” notes will count as two negative Rating Impact points instead of one. Here's an example of the new math in action: To put the impact in perspective, if this calculation had been in place historically, it would have resulted in nearly 1000 proposals that people found “Not Helpful” from being shown in the first place, along with another 7000+ proposals that didn’t reach a definitive status.

It shows a new entry of "Ratings of Helpful on notes that ended up with a status of Not Helpful" and "x2" next to the count of such ratings, indicating those counts as negative two Rating Impact points.

Multiple big quality updates launching this week. As always, code is open source in GitHub. First up: We’re improving note quality while simultaneously increasing the number of notes shown on X by about 10%. Today’s update works by identifying notes that contributors from a wide range of viewpoints agree are particularly low quality, and reduces the Contributor Helpfulness Scores for raters that rate those notes as helpful. As a result, it gives more weight to contributors who consistently help identify notes that people find helpful. As many of you know, Community Notes uses a bridging algorithm to identify notes that people from different points of view find helpful. To be shown on a post, a note must be found helpful by people who have historically disagreed in their ratings. Today’s change uses the same approach to identify notes that people from a wide range of viewpoints tag with certain rating tags. Details and code: github.com/twitter/community…

Notes written on images and videos are often shown on hundreds (sometimes thousands) of posts that contain matching media. We just launched an update to make it easier to see the post on which the note was originally written, so people can see the original context: While not common, we’ve seen at least one case where an image was originally used in one context, and then soon after reused in a different context. People naturally wondered why the original note was appearing in the new context. While we expect this scenario to continue to be rare, today’s change is designed to help people understand if and when this is happening. To further help, today’s update also makes the date on which the note was written more visible. Thank you to all the folks whose feedback led to this update.

Sometimes a note appears on a post after you’ve seen it. To help, Community Notes sends notifications to people who have engaged with a post that later receives a note. We’ve now scaled it up to handle even the most visible and highly-engaged posts, so more of you will be (and are already) seeing these.

Notes that cite sources have a much higher likelihood of earning a 'Helpful' status. This is not surprising, as sources make notes more easily verifiable by viewers and raters. Starting today, sources are now required for proposed notes. We haven’t previously required this, as some helpful notes inherently do not need sources – for example, they refer to details of the post or media it contains. But those instances are less common, and we believe the overall impact of this change will be positive. Sources will not be required for notes explaining why added context isn’t needed. Like all our product updates, we'll monitor the impact of this change and continue to improve based on what we learn.

Contributors who help identify “Not Helpful” notes will now get notifications recognizing their impact. These ratings help everyone else focus on more promising notes by clearing away low-quality ones, they give note authors constructive feedback, and address repeat low-quality writers by locking their ability to write new notes. A big thank you to everyone who has been helping keep quality high in Community Notes!

Contributors consistently say their goal is to keep others well-informed. This can happen when a helpful note appears on a post, and also when an erroneous post gets deleted. Starting today, writers will be notified when a post on which they wrote a note gets deleted.

To help contributors find and rate proposed notes faster, we’re experimenting with previewing some of them directly on posts, instead of behind a tap. As always, proposals are shown to contributors only, until they reach a “Helpful” status. Live today on the web; mobile coming soon. Notes are only previewed some of the time, and only when they meet certain criteria — for example, if they’ve been rated highly by initial raters, are written by an author whose notes are often found helpful, etc. Details in the Guide: communitynotes.x.com/guide/e…

New for note writers: Sometimes new information becomes available, or existing sources conflict. If you write a note on a post, and another contributor proposes that a note isn’t needed, we’ll let you know so you can consider their reasoning. Of course, you might not agree, but we know that many diligent note writers want feedback to help ensure they get things right. You’ll get at most one of these notifications per post, to keep it informative but not overwhelming. Let us know what you think when you get one.

When rating a note, it’s important that contributors have as much helpful information available as possible. Starting today, when contributors tap “Rate it” on a note, they’ll be taken to a page listing all note proposals, instead of just the note they’re looking at. This way, contributors can consider other notes before submitting their rating, including those claiming the post does not need additional context. We expect this to create more thoughtful and accurate ratings.

The next two screenshots depict the old screen they'd go to — where they see just one note — and the new screen they go to, where they see all proposed notes on the post.

Raters and readers will see notes that authors marked as “about the image” slightly differently, so it’s clear to everyone that they should be interpreted as about the media, not the specific Tweet. Ratings can help identify cases where a note may not apply to a specific Tweet.
