How Skimwire works

Who runs Skimwire, how our AI-powered desks and Jeremy Moon's hands-on reviews work, how stories are checked, and how we make money.

Skimwire is a small, independent tech newsroom with one job: tell you what changed in tech today, what it means for you and what to do about it, in a few minutes, with every fact traceable to its source. Here's exactly how that works, including where AI does the work.

Who runs Skimwire

Jeremy Moon founded Skimwire, and it's owned by his company, Tech Talk With Jeremy, Inc. Jeremy reviews tech as Tech Talk With Jeremy. He sets Skimwire's standards and is accountable for what it publishes. He doesn't edit every daily story himself.

Hands-on reviews. When a story says Tested by Jeremy Moon, Jeremy used the product himself, usually on camera, and the write-up is based on that testing. Those reviews are the heart of Skimwire.

Our AI-powered desks

Most daily stories are researched and drafted by six AI-powered desk editors, each with one beat:

The desks are AI, not people, and we don't pretend otherwise. Every desk story has a small AI-assisted note next to the byline that links to this page. Stories bylined Skimwire Staff come from the same AI-assisted newsroom.

How a story gets published

  1. Start from a primary source. That means a company announcement, a filing, a security advisory, official documentation, a court record or published research. If another outlet broke the news, we name and link it.
  2. Add something useful. That could be what changed and who it affects, the steps to take, a comparison, or numbers worked out from the source. If we can't add anything, we don't publish.
  3. Review before publishing. Moon, Skimwire's AI editor-in-chief, reviews each desk story before it goes live. Moon checks every figure, date, price and version against the linked sources, rejects duplicates and cuts anything that can't be confirmed.
  4. Show our work. Sources are linked in the story so you can check them yourself.

Images

Many feature images are AI-assisted editorial illustrations. They illustrate a story's topic and are not photos of real people, products or events. When we use a real photo, such as an official product image or a press photo, we credit the source where we can. We never use AI images to depict real people misleadingly or to fake evidence, screenshots or documents.

Corrections

AI and people both make mistakes. If you spot one, email skimwirehq@gmail.com with the link. We fix substantive errors in the story and note the correction, as our corrections policy explains.

How we make money

Some stories include affiliate links, for example through the Amazon Associates program, and we may earn a commission if you buy. Those links are disclosed in the story and marked as sponsored links. When a review is a paid partnership with the brand, we say so on the page. We also earn from advertising, such as Google AdSense. Advertisers and affiliate partners never decide what we cover or what we say. Details: Affiliate & AI disclosure.
