The people who build the work.

How the newsroom works

1. Intake — the system reads a curated list of Telegram channels and RSS sources around the clock and keeps the origin of every message.
2. Stories, not messages — reports about the same event are merged: five channels repeating one statement become one story, and the memory of past stories stops repeats.
3. Editorial selection — each story is scored for real news value and relevance. No new development, low significance or an unclear source means it waits or is dropped. In one documented 48-minute window, six messages became four stories and none were published — on purpose.
4. Original writing — an AI editorial step writes an independent Ukrainian text: what happened, who said it, what is still unconfirmed, with links back to sources.
5. Checks — numbers, names and organisations are checked against the sources; duplicates, policy and timing rules are applied before anything can go out.
6. Publishing — Telegram posts go out through a controlled queue; the website is rebuilt as static pages with English versions.
7. Confirmation — an item counts as published only after the public page or post is verified. If a send result is unclear, the system verifies before retrying, so nothing is posted twice.
8. Watchdogs — monitors check the channel and the site and raise an alert when publishing pauses, so a person handles only the exceptions.
