Editorial method

About Our Method

The standards that hold across every investigation on this platform.

Same burden for everyone

Official accounts, mainstream science, alternative theories, religious interpretations, eyewitnesses, governments, corporations, media outlets, institutions, and our own preferred conclusions all face the same standard.

Cases break into claims

A complicated case is never forced into a single true/false verdict. It is decomposed into individual claims, each with its own type, burden, evidence, and verdict.

Sources are typed and traced

Every source is classified — primary document, government record, scientific paper, eyewitness, later news report, biblical text, AI-generated analysis, and so on. Ten sites repeating one anonymous story do not count as ten independent sources.

Findings are append-only

An approved finding is never edited or deleted. If evidence changes, a new finding is created that supersedes the previous one, and the full history is visible.

AI assists; it never counts as evidence

AI may draft claim breakdowns, timelines, and competing arguments. AI output is always labeled draft analysis and never counts as evidence, never approves a finding, and never accuses anyone.

Community leads enter quarantine

Submissions never auto-publish. They never trigger external research costs. They never reach another Pros app. Founder or editor review is required to accept, merge, request clarification, retain privately, escalate, or reject.
