🚀 Quick Start

use veritas_nexus::prelude::*;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
    // Initialize the detection system
    let detector = LieDetector::builder()
        .with_text_analysis(TextConfig::default())
        .with_vision_analysis(VisionConfig::default())
        .build()?;

    // Analyze a text statement
    let input = AnalysisInput::text("I was definitely at home all evening.");
    let result = detector.analyze(input).await?;

    match result.decision {
        Decision::Truthful => println!("Statement appears truthful"),
        Decision::Deceptive => println!("Statement appears deceptive"),
        Decision::Uncertain => println!("Insufficient evidence"),
    }

    Ok(())
}
