Editorial Policy

How TheTechBasket researches, checks, updates and corrects its articles, and how we use AI tools.

Every article on TheTechBasket has one job: give you a correct answer you can act on. This page explains how we get there.

Sources

  • We check facts on the official source first: the developer, vendor, publisher or game page, its app store listing, and its official social accounts.
  • Prices, free tier limits, version numbers and system requirements come from the official page, with the date we checked them.
  • When only a news report has a fact, we say where it came from and when.
  • Articles name their sources in the text, and many list the main ones at the end.

Testing and screenshots

  • We install and use the apps and tools we recommend before we recommend them.
  • Screenshots are our own captures of the real app, site or game. We never use AI to redraw a real screen.
  • Where a picture comes from a developer (for example a game’s store screenshots), the caption credits it.

Keeping articles current

  • Game code pages are checked on a set schedule: the most popular every week, the rest on a regular review cycle. Each page shows when it was last checked.
  • Daily puzzle answers are updated every day.
  • Roundups and guides are refreshed when prices, features or availability change.
  • The “Updated” date changes only when the information changes. Fixing a typo or a broken link does not change it.

How we use AI

We use AI tools to help with research and drafting. An editor checks every fact, price and code against the official source before an article is published or updated, and the named author is responsible for it. We do not publish anything that has not been checked by a person.

Independence

  • Brands cannot pay for coverage or for a verdict, and they do not see an article before it goes live.
  • Affiliate and sponsored links are labelled. Read the affiliate disclosure.
  • Product review rules are on the about page.
  • We do not accept guest posts.

Corrections

Found an error or an outdated fact? Tell us through the contact page. We check the report against the official source and fix the article. If the fix changes the answer a reader would act on, we also update the article’s date.

Who is responsible
