Editorial standards

Jyme News covers a fast-moving category where product claims, funding numbers, and user-count statistics are often self-reported and unverified. This page lays out how the newsroom handles that.

Sourcing

Every numeric claim in an article is sourced to a public record. Funding rounds cite the filing or the press release. User counts cite the product page where the claim originates. Developer-forum quotes cite the thread. A reader who wants to check our work will find the sources linked at the end of each piece.

When a product makes a claim that is measurable but unverifiable — for example, a self-reported benchmark — the article reports the claim as a claim and notes that independent verification is absent.

Corrections

When an article contains a factual error, the correction is appended at the bottom of the article with a timestamp and a short description of what changed. The original incorrect claim is not silently deleted. For material errors — misattributed funding, incorrect founder names, wrong public statements — the correction goes at the top of the article. Email corrections@jyme.io with the article URL and the disputed claim.

Sponsorship & independence

Every ad slot on Jyme News is labeled “Sponsored”. Products that advertise on Jyme News do not receive more favorable editorial treatment, and products that don't advertise are not penalized. A product's review score, where given, is derived from public capability and documentation — not from commercial relationship.

Where a story directly involves an advertiser, the article notes the advertising relationship inline.

AI use in the newsroom

Drafts may be assisted by AI tooling. Every published article is reviewed by the Jyme Newsroom before publication, and every fact in a published article is traceable to a cited source. We do not publish articles whose factual content was not reviewed end-to-end by an editor.

Voice & bylines

Articles are bylined “Jyme Newsroom”. This is a collective byline — the outlet speaks as an institution, not as individual writers. This keeps the editorial voice consistent across the publication and discourages individual-brand incentives (followers, Twitter clout) from shaping coverage.

What we don't do

• Republish press releases as editorial content
• Participate in embargoed-exclusive trades (exchange positive coverage for early access)
• Remove a critical article in exchange for advertising spend
• Publish a product review without using the product in its then-current state
