Frequently asked questions.

  1. 1. Is it really written by AI?

    Yes, and every story says so. AI does the research, outreach, and writing.

  2. 2. Will my sources know it’s AI?

    Yes. Every outreach email says who we are, what the story is about, and that it’s AI-reported. Sources choose whether to take part.

  3. 3. Can I change what the story says?

    You can flag factual errors, but you can’t change the angle or the conclusions.

  4. 4. How long does it take?

    Your draft is due within 7 days of submitting your paid brief. Fact review follows before publication. Timing depends on source responses and any factual corrections.

  5. 5. Can I get a refund?

    At this time we are not offering refunds. Once you submit your commission request payment is final.
