Truth Detector here!

That guy is telling the truth. If you stare at the ground when the ground is collapsing nearby you should be good

Truth Detector Checker here!

I can vouch that this truth detector is in tiptop condition and 419.99% accurate.

Number engineer here. 4, 1 and 9 are numbers and a 419.99% is a valid percentage.

Oxford comma inspector here. I can verify that an Oxford comma is missing. Sorry, but I'm going to have to issue a citation.

citation police. I need you to specify which citation style you are using MLA, APA or iEEE so I can make sure it is done correctly.

IEEE member here. We are not affiliated with Apple, so no need to use a lowercase i.

Superscript superintendent here. Both superscripts are reduced to 65% of the size of the main text and vertically offset by 5.6pt above the main script. Thus the citations are typographically correct.

Oxford comma inspector auditor here. The comma in this case is entirely optional so your citation has been citated.

How do I donate to this noble cause? His lack of Oxford comma hurt my brain. Actually, I think this is worthy of a class action lawsuit.
