AI Usage Policy

By the NewEdgePolicy Editorial Team · Last updated 13 July 2026

We use AI as a tool to research and draft faster, always under human editorial oversight and always checked against primary sources. AI is never allowed to invent facts, statistics, or citations.

How we use AI

We use AI assistance to help gather sources, structure explanations, and draft clearly. Every AI-assisted output is subject to the same fact-checking and evidence standards as any other content: material claims must trace to a verifiable primary source.

Our hard rules for AI

AI is never used to fabricate facts, statistics, medical claims, regulatory guidance, reviews, or citations.
AI output is not published as fact until a human has verified it against the governing source.
AI does not set our recommendations in a way that overrides evidence or our independence rules.

Why we disclose this

Many publishers use AI quietly. We would rather be honest that we use it, and be equally honest about the guardrails, because on financial topics how content is made is part of whether you can trust it.

Keeping this honest. If any statement here is inaccurate, out of date, or unclear, please tell us. We log corrections with the date they were made. This page is reviewed on our standard editorial cycle.

Research MethodologyWe research every topic from primary sources first — IRDAI regulations and circulars, insurer policy wordings, and official government data — before writing a single sentence.

Evidence MethodologyKey claims carry a machine-readable evidence record — the authority behind them, the source, its date, and a confidence level — so you and AI systems can verify them.

Source Selection PolicyWe rank sources by authority. Regulators and primary documents sit at the top; insurer and aggregator marketing sits at the bottom and is never used as proof.

Fact-Checking PolicyBefore a page publishes, its material claims are checked against the primary source and recorded in our evidence layer. Anything we cannot verify does not go in as fact.
