Editorial Policy

What we cover

Tech, AI, markets/finance, business, and science — stories we think are timely and matter beyond the headline. We aim for depth over volume: a handful of well-checked posts rather than a firehose.

How a post gets made

  1. A story is picked up from public reporting (major news outlets, primary sources like company announcements, research papers, or regulatory filings where relevant).
  2. A draft is written that explains the story and adds a "why this matters" angle — not just a rewrite of the original article.
  3. Every factual claim (dates, numbers, quotes, named entities) is checked against the original source before publishing. Claims we can't verify are either cut or explicitly flagged as unconfirmed.
  4. A human reviews the draft before it's published — see our AI Usage Policy for how AI is involved in this process.

Sourcing

  • Every post links to its sources. We don't fabricate citations, quotes, or URLs — if we can't find a real source for a claim, the claim doesn't go in the post.
  • We synthesize multiple sources where possible rather than rewriting a single article.

Corrections

If a post turns out to contain an error, we fix it and note the correction with a date at the bottom of the post. Material errors (wrong numbers, misattributed quotes, factual reversals) are corrected as soon as we're made aware — see Contact to flag one.

Updates

Some posts are revisited and updated as a story develops or as facts change. When we do, we update the "Last updated" date on the post.

What this site is not

  • Not financial, legal, medical, or investment advice.
  • Not a wire service — we don't break news first; we explain news that's already out, with added context.
  • Not sponsored by or affiliated with any company we cover unless explicitly disclosed.

Independence

Carus Signal is self-funded and independently run. See our Affiliate Disclosure for how the site makes money and how that could intersect with coverage.
