METHODOLOGY
Trust Registry v0.1
Our approach to verifying authentic human sources and building a registry you can trust.
What is the Trust Registry?
The Trust Registry is a curated database of verified human sources. It serves as a lighthouse in the fog of machine-generated content, helping you identify authentic human voices in the information landscape.
Unlike algorithmic ranking systems that optimize for engagement, our registry prioritizes authenticity, transparency, and human authorship.
Verification Criteria
Sources must meet the following criteria to be included in the Trust Registry:
- Consistent human authorship verified through multiple analysis methods
- Editorial transparency and clear attribution of content creators
- No history of mass AI-generated content without disclosure
- Responsive to corrections and maintains journalistic standards
- Clear ownership and organizational accountability
- Regular content updates demonstrating active human engagement
