I am StockFactsheet's only editor. I choose which companies and pages we cover. Being covered is not a view on the company.

I sign off every page before it is published, in batches, after each one has passed our automated checks and AI-assisted review. Every figure comes from a filing or an issuer's statement, or is calculated by code from them. Claude, made by Anthropic, drafts the text of each analysis page from a fact pack that code builds (see how we use AI).

GCC figures are keyed from the issuer's own financial-statement PDF with our entry tool, with AI assistance, and checked by code against the PDF's own text before they show.

I also handle corrections. We aim to review an error report within 5 business days. Each confirmed error is fixed and logged on the Corrections page, and I sign off the corrected page before it goes live. About StockFactsheet covers who we are and how we work.

StockFactsheet exists to make company filings easy to read: the numbers, where each one comes from and how it is calculated, without tips, ratings or price targets.

The list covers steps 3 and 4 of our editorial policy: the checks, then the named sign-off. The data and figure checks apply only to analysis pages, the pages built from a fact pack.

1. 1

   Imported data checked. Code checks the imported data, for example that each balance sheet balances. An open error flag blocks approval of the page's data.

2. 2

   Figures checked against the fact pack and cited documents. An AI-assisted fact-check compares the figures in the text with the fact pack. It checks every figure quoted from a cited filing or release against that document, and traces a sample of the rest, plus any figure that looks surprising, to the filing.

3. 3

   GCC figures checked by code against the PDF's text. Code checks that each keyed figure is printed on its cited page, in the row with its printed label, before it shows. It also records the column and the sign, and lists any mismatch for review.

4. 4

   Periods and dates checked. The fact-check also confirms each figure's period and the "Data as of" date, which our methodology defines as the latest period end among the statement figures.

5. 5

   Wording and structure checked. Code checks the wording against our banned-word list of terms that read as advice, verdicts or forecasts. AI-assisted passes then check compliance and the page's structure for search and answer engines.

6. 6

   Signed off and dated. I sign off a page only after these checks pass. The sign-off is recorded against the page's exact text, and its date is printed on the page.

A data refresh starts the checks again. New financial-statement figures never go live until the page is signed off again.

You can check this work. Each analysis page lists the filings behind its tables and key facts under Sources and data. Every confirmed correction is logged in public, with what was wrong and what the page now reads.

The checks test figures, periods and wording. They do not judge a company or say what to do with a security. StockFactsheet is not a licensed investment adviser, broker or dealer, and nothing on the site is investment advice. Figures can still contain errors, so check the original filing and read the full disclaimer.
