Editorial Policy
Last updated June 10, 2026
A brief assembled by machine only works if the rules are stricter than a human newsroom's. These are the rules every edition follows.
Assembled by machine, and said out loud
Every edition of The Narraitive is gathered and assembled automatically by software — the name nods to it, this page details it. Editions from July to September 10, 2026 used an AI model to summarise the gathered stories; since September 15, 2026 no model is involved at all: headlines, prices and links are copied verbatim from their sources. The section lineup, sources, and every editorial judgment about how the brief works are made by its human editor.
Nothing is invented
The brief may only cite stories, prices, statistics, dates, and links that appear in the source data it gathered that morning — wire feeds, public APIs, markets data, and public forums. It is forbidden from speculating a catalyst, estimating a figure, or fabricating a URL. When it has no explanation for something, it says exactly that — “no catalyst in today’s data” — rather than inventing one. When a data source is down, the brief says so in one line instead of papering over the gap.
Every story links to its source
News, entertainment, fraud, breakthrough, and long-read items each carry a link to the underlying reporting. The brief’s summaries are substantially shorter than and different from the sources they point to; the click-through belongs to the original publisher.
Nothing repeats
Every edition is checked against previous editions — stories, viral posts, trivia questions, jokes, sweet nothings, and polls — so subscribers never read yesterday’s brief twice. Recycled filler is treated as an error.
Information, never advice
Market and crypto sections describe what is happening. They never recommend buying or selling anything, and generic trading aphorisms are banned by rule. See also Terms of Use.
Corrections
A wrong fact or broken link is the worst error this publication can make. If you find one, email hello@thenarraitive.com with subject “Correction”. Verified corrections are acknowledged in a following edition, and the reporter is credited unless they prefer otherwise.
Independence
Advertisers and sources have no influence over what the brief covers; see the Advertising Disclosure. We do not accept payment to feature, exclude, or flatter any company, story, or AI vendor.
