Editorial Policy

Editorial Policy: Standards for Trust & Accuracy

At AI Finance Bites, trust is our currency. This Content Trustworthiness Policy outlines the rigorous standards we apply to every piece of content, video, and guide we publish. In an era of AI-generated noise, we are committed to providing verifiable, institutional-grade financial intelligence.

1. Fact-Checking & Verification

Our Content Trustworthiness Policy mandates that every claim regarding financial returns, market data, or technical specifications is verified against primary sources. We do not publish rumors or unverified “insider” tips.

• Primary Sources: We rely on direct data from exchange APIs, regulatory filings (SEC/FCA), and official technical documentation.
• Attribution: When we cite data, we provide a clear, direct link to the source. We adhere to the principles of the SPJ Code of Ethics regarding accuracy and context.
• Expert Review: All technical guides are reviewed by our founder, Raheel Ahmed Qureshi, to ensure DevOps and infrastructure claims are technically sound.

2. AI Usage Disclosure

We utilize Artificial Intelligence to assist in data analysis and trend identification. However, our Content Trustworthiness Policy dictates that AI is a tool, not an author.

Our “Human-in-the-Loop” Standard:

• Drafting: AI may be used to structure outlines or summarize large datasets.
• Review: All final content is reviewed, edited, and approved by human financial experts.
• Safety: We never allow AI to generate financial advice without human oversight. We actively audit our AI outputs for “hallucinations” (data errors) before publication.

3. Corrections Policy

Accuracy is a journey. If we make an error, we correct it immediately and transparently. We do not “stealth edit” our mistakes.

• Minor Errors: Typos or small data clarifications are fixed immediately.
• Substantive Errors: If a factual error changes the meaning of a guide (e.g., incorrect trading fees), we add a “Correction” note to the top of the article or video description detailing what was changed and when.
• Reporting Errors: Readers are encouraged to report inaccuracies via our Report & Compliance Hub.

4. Independence & Affiliate Integrity

Our editorial team operates independently of our advertising partnerships. While we use affiliate links to monetize our content, these relationships never dictate our market analysis or technical reviews.

Our Promise:

• We do not accept payment to change the outcome of a review.
• If a platform fails our security or latency tests, we will say so, regardless of the commission rate.
• All affiliate relationships are disclosed clearly at the top of every commercial page, in accordance with FTC guidelines.

5. User Feedback & Accountability

We believe that maintaining a high standard of Content Trustworthiness Policy compliance requires active participation from our community. Our readers are the first line of defense against inaccuracy.

If you spot a discrepancy in our data—for example, if a broker updates their fee structure or a VPS provider changes their server locations—we encourage you to flag it. This open feedback loop ensures that AI Finance Bites remains a living, breathing source of truth rather than a static archive of outdated information.

How We Handle Feedback

• Receipt: All compliance reports are acknowledged within 24 hours.
• Review: Our editorial team verifies the claim against primary sources.
• Action: Corrections are made immediately, and if the error was significant, a public note is appended to the content.

6. Continuous Improvement Protocol

The financial landscape changes daily. A static Content Trustworthiness Policy is insufficient for the fast-paced world of AI trading. We commit to auditing our top-performing guides (such as our “Best Brokers” and “VPS” comparisons) on a quarterly basis.

During these audits, we re-test the platforms to ensure:

1. Latency Claims: Are the ping times still under 5ms?
2. Withdrawal Speeds: Are funds still arriving within the promised window?
3. Regulatory Status: Has the broker lost or gained any licenses (FCA/CySEC)?

By adhering to this cycle of verify, publish, and re-verify, we ensure that our recommendations remain safe for your capital.
