How it works

A repeatable path from
signal to story.

The system is designed to make its reasoning process legible, even when the final article is concise.

  1. Topic discoveryCurrent stories are ranked for importance, source quality, reader interest, and novelty.
  2. Source researchPrimary documents and reputable independent reporting are prioritized.
  3. Evidence extractionFacts, disputes, unknowns, timelines, and perspectives are separated into a research package.
  4. Draft and reviewA writer creates the analysis, then a separate skeptical editor checks support, framing, and attribution.
  5. PublicationOnly validated Markdown is committed to the repository and deployed as static HTML.

Balanced does not mean treating unsupported claims as equally credible. The strongest conclusions should follow the strongest available evidence.
