Editorial policy

Applies to Arabia Tomorrow. Last reviewed 3 September 2026.

How pieces are produced

Each article on Arabia Tomorrow is a synthesis of two or more independently published sources on the same development. The synthesis is AI-assisted: a language model drafts the piece from the cited sources under a fixed set of rules, and an automated verification pass checks the draft before it can be published. Human editors can also write or edit pieces directly; those pieces pass the same verification at publication.

The byline on every piece is a desk, an editorial unit of this title, never an individual. The publisher is Arabian Media Network.

Sources are always cited

Every article ends with a sources block listing each source used, from at least two distinct publishers, with a link and the claim it supports. Figures, quotes and dates that do not appear in a cited source are not published. No figure is invented, no quote is invented, and nothing is stated as fact that a source presents as a forecast or a report.

What the verification pass checks

Before publication each piece is checked for: traceability of every claim to a stored source; verbatim overlap with any single source below a fixed ceiling; duplication against everything the network has published in the previous thirty days; minimum length; a valid sources block; and compliance with the coverage rules below. A piece that fails any check is not published and is not retried into publication.

Coverage rules

These rules apply to every piece, every dataset row and every page across the network, whether generated or human-authored.

• The network reports commercial and business facts. It does not publish government policy, sovereign or political affairs, security matters, or political analysis concerning the United Arab Emirates or Saudi Arabia, and does not reference officials of either country. Private-sector transactions and commercial business news are within scope.
• The network does not publish adverse coverage of named companies, projects or operators in those two countries, and does not characterise them in either direction. Facts, figures, dates and disclosed terms, each with a source, are the permitted register.
• The network never manufactures favourable content. It does not write assessments the sources do not support, does not restate negative facts favourably, and does not omit a material figure to leave a favourable impression. Where the choice is between an inaccurate framing and not publishing, the piece is not published.
• No adjective of quality is applied to any named company anywhere on the network. No score, grade, rating or league table is applied to a named company.
• No claim about a named private individual is published unless it appears in a cited source. No net worth estimates, no inferred holdings, no unsourced succession claims, no corruption allegations against named individuals.
• No religious, moral or social-values commentary. No medical, legal, tax or investment advice framing: the network publishes information only.

Limits of the process

Automated synthesis can misread a source, and automated verification can miss an error. Cited sources can themselves be wrong or later corrected. Readers should treat every article as a sourced summary and consult the linked originals before relying on any figure. When we find an error we correct it under the corrections policy.

Datasets

Dataset rows are held to a stricter standard than articles: every field carries the source that states it, every change is versioned, and no derived or evaluative field is published for entries subject to the coverage rules above. See Method.
