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
- A story is picked up from public reporting (major news outlets, primary sources like company announcements, research papers, or regulatory filings where relevant).
- A draft is written that explains the story and adds a "why this matters" angle — not just a rewrite of the original article.
- 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.
- 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.
