How we work
NeuralGist is AI-assisted and human-edited. Here is exactly what that means, so you can judge the work for yourself.
The short version
Software helps us find stories and assemble the facts. A person decides what runs, checks every claim against its source, and puts their name on it. Nothing publishes automatically.
Where AI is used
- Finding stories. We monitor official company blogs, research feeds, release notes and community discussion, and rank what looks worth explaining.
- Gathering sources. For any story we cover, we pull the primary source — the announcement, the paper, the changelog — plus independent reporting on it.
- Drafting. A first draft is written from those collected facts.
Where AI is not used
- Deciding what to publish. A person does that.
- Fact-checking.Every factual claim is checked against a source by a person before publication. A draft that can’t be checked doesn’t run.
- Judgement.The “what this actually means” part — the reason this site exists — is written and owned by a human editor.
The rules we hold ourselves to
These aren’t aspirations. They’re enforced by the publishing system itself:
- At least three cited sources per article, each linked, with at least one primary source. An article that doesn’t meet this cannot be published — the system rejects it.
- Something of our own in every article— a comparison table, a timeline, a benchmark, a “who should care” box. We synthesise from multiple sources; we never rewrite one article and call it ours.
- A hard daily limit on how much we publish.Publishing volume is capped in the system. We would rather run four articles worth reading than forty that aren’t.
- A named author on every article, with a real profile you can read.
- Honest dates.The “updated” stamp appears only when we actually revised the content — never to make old work look fresh.
How we use other people’s work
We report facts and link to where we found them. We don’t republish other outlets’ writing, and we don’t follow one article’s structure and swap the words. When reporting is the story, we cite and link it, quote it briefly, and send you to the original. If you believe we’ve got something wrong or handled your work unfairly, tell usand we’ll correct it.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so in the article rather than quietly editing it. Substantive corrections carry a dated note.
Money
NeuralGistis funded by advertising. Ads are labelled. No advertiser gets a say in what we cover or what we conclude, and we don’t publish sponsored posts dressed as editorial. See our editorial standards for the full policy.
