X Community Notes has introduced “Lightning Notes,” a new feature that accelerates the process of adding verified context to posts, often in under 20 minutes.

By re-architecting its scoring system and tapping into over 800,000 global contributors, Community Notes ensures that context is provided quickly and accurately, with a thorough vetting process that involves evaluating post accuracy, sourcing materials, and reviewing suggested context from multiple perspectives.

This speed boost is already making a difference: since the rollout, notes are seen to reduce the sharing of misleading posts by 60% and increase post deletions by 80%.

Lightning Notes even offers context for specific images and videos, automatically displaying on matching media across new posts, further streamlining content verification.
