Editorial Policy

This page describes the rules every article on Tech AI Wire must follow. It is a promise to readers, and it is enforced on every single article.

Sourcing standards

Every news article synthesizes at least two independent, named sources, and every source is linked in a "Sources" list at the end of the article. We never publish a rewrite of a single source's story.
We link to primary sources (the original announcement, paper, changelog, or repository) whenever they exist.
We do cover rumors - a phone or a chip is rumored for months before anyone confirms it - but never as fact. Analyst notes, supply-chain leaks and unconfirmed reports are labeled as what they are, with their origin attached, and the article says plainly what has not been confirmed.

Headlines and framing

Headlines describe what actually happened, in 70 characters or fewer. No clickbait, no withheld information ("You won't believe…"), no manufactured urgency.
Every article opens with the news itself - no throat-clearing introductions.
Every article includes a "What this means for developers" section: our own analysis of the practical impact, which is original to this site.

Editorial standards

Drafts are prepared with software from the named sources. Before anything is published, a person reads the draft, checks every figure and quote against those sources, and edits or rejects drafts that don't meet the sourcing standards above. Accountability for everything published sits with the Tech AI Wire Team, named on our about page.

Corrections

When we're wrong, we fix it and say so. See the corrections policy for how to report an error and how corrections are displayed.

Affiliate links and advertising

Some links on this site may be affiliate links, meaning we earn a commission if you buy through them at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships never influence what we cover or how we cover it, and sponsored posts and paid reviews are always clearly labeled as such. Payment covers our time and testing; the verdict stays ours.

Every affiliate or otherwise paid link we publish carries rel="sponsored nofollow", so no search engine mistakes a commercial link for an editorial recommendation. The links in an article's Sources list, and the citations inside the story itself, are ordinary editorial links and carry no such tag - we link out to the reporting we relied on because you should be able to check it.

Updates to this policy

This policy may be updated as the site evolves. Substantive changes will be noted on this page with the date of the change.
