Editorial Policy, Verification & AI Transparency

Quik uses advanced AI models to scan, extract, and synthesize real-time data from 50+ accredited global news feeds. Our systems are engineered with strict editorial boundaries:

• Anti-Hallucination Guardrails: AI is never permitted to invent facts, create quotes, or fabricate sources. Every article is grounded in verifiable external reporting.
• Fact-Based Next Steps: Analysis regarding future developments is strictly restricted to confirmed public schedules, legal deadlines, or official press announcements. Unsubstantiated speculation is banned.
• Human Editorial Leadership: Editorial governance, taxonomy guidelines, and risk policies are set by human editors led by our Founder & Editor-in-Chief.

Original reporting belongs to the journalists and media organizations that uncover it. We practice transparent attribution:

• Clear Source Cards: Every story displays the primary reporting outlet(s) with direct links back to original publications.
• Cross-Source Verification: Breaking events are corroborated across independent wire services (such as Reuters, Associated Press, BBC, Bloomberg) before cluster confirmation.

When factual inaccuracies occur, we correct them promptly with full transparency.

When an article undergoes a material factual revision, the updated timestamp and schema `dateModified` are updated to reflect the revision date.

Stories involving legal disputes, conflict casualties, financial fraud, or unverified claims are routed through a high-risk evaluation gate. We strictly refrain from editorializing, sensationalism, clickbait, or partisan bias.
