Twitter.now fails initial trustworthiness checks for me.

They push you down paid paths to get "early access."
No information about the team/company is provided.
It has hallmarks of an AI-generated website. (Various -- if you've asked Claude to build you a site, you probably can see the similarities -- but to back it with something empirical, the hero text copy/pasted into GPTZero.me says it is 100% AI.)
No information about the team or organization.

That said, the idea of a Twitter with a "trust dial" where you can dial down or up "trustworthy" content is intriguing, but they provide very little detail about how they would score "trust," and the devil is in the details.
