01 — What we cover
Breaking AI and technology news, product launches and updates, original hands-on testing, benchmarks, comparisons, technical explainers and practical guides. When something big happens, we follow it until it stops mattering.
02 — Editorial standards
SourcingPrimary sources linked. Anonymous sources only with a stated reason.
EmbargoesHonoured when agreed; never traded for favourable coverage.
UpdatesMaterial changes are timestamped at the top of the story.
HeadlinesSay what happened. No “you won’t believe”.
03 — How we test
We pay for the products we review. Benchmarks follow a published, versioned methodology, and raw data is released so anyone can check our work.
Benchmarked methodology04 — Use of AI
Every story is reported and written by a person. We use AI tools for transcription, translation checks and code testing — and say so when it matters to the story. We never publish AI-generated articles.
05 — Corrections
Mistakes get fixed fast and noted at the bottom of the story. Significant corrections are listed publicly.
06 — Independence
9to5 AI is independently owned and is not affiliated with 9to5Mac, 9to5Google or any AI company we cover. No company can pay for coverage, placement or a score.
