How we work

Short, sourced, and written for people who have to decide things.

  • Every story links its sources. Company announcements, filings and regulator documents wherever possible.
  • We flag what we can’t confirm. If a number only appears on one secondary site, we say so.
  • We care about robots that work. A backflip is fun. A trailer-loading robot on a night shift is news.
