Editorial policy

Our standard is simple: readers should be able to tell what happened, where the claim came from, and what part is our analysis.

Primary sources first

Release coverage starts with official product announcements, documentation, system cards, research papers, and regulator guidance. Secondary reporting may add context, but it does not replace the primary record.

Testing and reviews

A review must identify the version, plan, test date, task, and meaningful limitations. We do not describe vendor demonstrations as independent tests. Comparative claims are scoped to the work actually performed.

AI-assisted production

Automation may help collect sources, structure drafts, check links, or flag stale facts. A publishable article still requires source verification, original analysis, conflict checks, and human editorial approval. The site does not publish scraped or lightly rewritten pages at scale.

Corrections

Material factual corrections are applied promptly. Updated articles display a reviewed date, and significant changes should be noted inside the article when they alter the conclusion.

Commercial independence

Advertising and affiliate eligibility do not determine ratings, inclusion, or conclusions. Paid placement must be labeled as advertising or sponsorship and kept distinct from editorial rankings.
