This page explains how TimesAlert researches, writes, checks, updates and corrects its articles.
Where our facts come from
- Prices and plans: copied from the vendor’s own pricing page, never from other articles. Every page that shows prices carries a “prices checked” date.
- Tax and compliance: checked against the tax authority’s own pages (ATO, HMRC, CRA, IRS). We don’t give tax advice.
- Features: described from the vendor’s documentation or from our own use of a free trial. When a review is based on a trial, we say so and show screenshots. When it is not, we say it is based on vendor information.
How we use AI
Articles are drafted with AI assistance (Claude). Then:
- Albert reviews each draft and checks every price, date and factual claim against its source before publishing.
- AI is not used to invent test results, quotes, reviews, statistics or author identities.
- Anything we could not verify is removed or clearly marked.
Independence
- Affiliate relationships don’t change our rankings or verdicts. We add affiliate links after the verdict is written.
- We don’t accept payment for a ranking or a “best” label.
- Sponsored content, if we ever run any, will be clearly labelled.
