Our standards

Sourcing

Every fact in a story comes from a source, and the story lists its sources at the end. We favor, in order: primary sources and companies' own documentation, established wire and business reporting, then secondary analysis.

Each source is labeled Primary, Data, Reporting or Analysis. We keep what a source actually said or showed separate from our own analysis. When we could not confirm something, we say so.

AI use

XNewsAi is an AI-native publication, and says so plainly. AI (Claude, via Anthropic's API) powers Ask XAi's answers, with web search and source citations, and assists with drafting and research behind the scenes.

What gets published, how significant a story is, and what gets corrected are human editorial decisions.

Corrections

When we get something material wrong, we fix it and say so on the story with a dated correction note. Every correction is also listed on the corrections page.

To report an error, write to support@systemxtechnologies.com or use the corrections page.

Responses

XNewsAi does not send requests for comment. Anyone a story names is invited to respond, and we publish responses in full, on the story and on the corrections page.

The line at the end of every story

Sources (N) is the number of sources listed on the story.

Last verified is the day we last checked the story against its sources: the day of its latest update, or the day it was published if it has not been updated. Dates are in Central Time (CT).
