Import a debate
Paste a link to a news article, blog post, or Reddit thread (r/changemyview & kin work best). deb8 reads it and drafts a structured debate — a clear proposition, the strongest argument on every side, and the source seated in the Evidence Library. You review and edit before it goes live.
Sign in to import a debate from anywhere on the web.
One-click from any page
The bookmarklet captures a page in your browser and hands it to deb8 — so it works even where our server is blocked (Reddit, paywalled-but-open-in-your-tab, intranet docs). Highlight the part you want to debate first for the sharpest map.

How importing works
- We fetch the page (public links only) and read its title, text, and — for Reddit — the top comments.
- An AI cartographer drafts a neutral proposition and steelmans every side. It maps the argument; it never rules who's right.
- You edit the framing, proposition, and summary, then pick a vertical and publish.
- Original authors are credited by attribution + backlink — never impersonated. Provenance is recorded on the topic.
Every imported post passes the same Tier-0 safety gate as a human post. Don't import private or paywalled content you don't have the right to surface.
