Editorial policy

Stories are selected from the RSS sources listed on our Sources page. Similar reports are grouped using headline and source signals. The newest credible report generally supplies the primary headline and update.

“What changed” should state the concrete new development. “Why it matters” explains a direct, supportable consequence without predicting more than the reporting allows. Source links and timestamps remain visible so readers can verify context.

Which stories appear

Stories come from the publishers listed on our Sources page. Reports published close together are compared by their significant words and named people, places and organisations, and grouped when they describe the same event. Promotional items, such as betting offers, are excluded.

How we use AI

NewsAgo briefings are written by an AI language model from the reports grouped on each story page, and nothing else: the model receives the headlines, excerpts and publication times of those reports and must not add outside facts, quotations, motives or predictions.

Automated checks then require every point in the briefing to cite at least one of the supplied reports, reject generic filler, repeated headlines and formatting errors, and limit the length of each section. A briefing that fails these checks is not published. Each AI-written briefing says so on the page. When an editor reviews or corrects a story, the human text replaces the automated version.

What we will not do

We do not present aggregation as first-hand reporting, invent quotations or sources, publish opinion pieces under a news label, or accept payment for coverage. Advertising is clearly separated from editorial content and never placed on private pages.

Search and quality

Only story pages with a NewsAgo briefing comparing two or more independent publishers are offered to search engines. Single-publisher reports remain available to readers with the publisher’s own excerpt, clearly attributed, but are marked not to be indexed.

Our commitment

We clearly distinguish NewsAgo summaries from publishers’ original reporting, preserve source links and avoid presenting aggregation as first-hand journalism.
