How we report
- 1Research at machine scaleLeading AI models read far more company reports, official notices and local news than any newsroom could read by hand. They find links that people would not realistically spot, so our analysis reaches much further than you would expect.
- 2Checked three timesEvery figure and quote is checked against its original source by code and then by a separate AI review. An editor then checks the story a third time.
- 3Written with an editorOur editor sets the voice and style of every story. The editor rewrites sections where they need it and approves each story before it is published.
