Editorial Policy

Last updated: May 2026 · Editorial enquiries

Content Standards

All content published on UKPulse must meet the following standards:

• Accuracy: Stories are drawn from verified, established news sources. We do not publish unverified rumours or speculation as fact.
• Attribution: Every article clearly attributes its source publication. We link to original reporting.
• Fairness: We aim to present news in a balanced way. Where stories involve political or contentious matters, we draw from multiple perspectives where possible.
• Public interest: We prioritise stories that are relevant to people living and working in the UK.
• Clarity: Our AI summaries aim to make complex stories accessible without distorting meaning.

Source Selection

UKPulse only aggregates from sources that meet our credibility criteria:

• Established UK national and regional publishers
• Official government departments and regulatory bodies (BBC, Gov.uk, NHS, Bank of England, FCA, Ofsted)
• Recognised specialist and trade publications
• Peer-reviewed scientific and research institutions (UKRI, UK Space Agency, Science Media Centre)

We review our source list regularly and remove sources that no longer meet quality standards.

AI Use and Oversight

UKPulse uses AI language models to produce article summaries. Our editorial standards apply equally to AI-generated content:

• AI outputs are reviewed for accuracy, tone and relevance before publication
• Articles that contain AI hallucinations or factual errors are automatically flagged and removed
• We do not use AI to fabricate quotes, invent sources or create misinformation

For full details, see our AI Disclaimer.

Corrections Policy

We take accuracy seriously. If you believe an article contains an error:

• Email corrections@ukpulse.co.uk with the article URL and details of the error
• We aim to review corrections within 24 hours
• Significant corrections are noted within the article
• Articles that cannot be corrected are removed

Independence

UKPulse editorial decisions are made independently of advertisers, sponsors or external commercial interests. Our content selection is based solely on newsworthiness and public interest.
