Our Standard
Every InfoBrief article must answer its headline question completely, accurately, and faster than the reader could assemble the answer elsewhere. If a page doesn’t add something concrete beyond the official source — a worked example, a comparison table, a decision guide, a schedule organized for real use — we don’t publish it.
Sourcing
Facts come from primary sources: federal and state agency pages, official company pricing and policy pages, and the text of laws and regulations. Every article lists its sources at the end. When a figure comes from reporting rather than an official document, we name the outlet in the text. We do not copy or closely paraphrase other publishers’ articles.
Updates and corrections
Articles about schedules, prices, and program rules are reviewed and refreshed when the underlying facts change — at minimum, dated articles are re-checked ahead of each year’s cycle. Every article displays a “last updated” date. When a reader reports an error and we confirm it, we correct the article promptly. Substantive corrections that change the meaning of previously published guidance are noted in the article.
How we use technology
Our editorial team uses software tools, including AI-assisted drafting, for research organization and first drafts. Every published article is reviewed by a person against the primary sources listed in it, and responsibility for accuracy rests with the editorial team, not the tools.
Advertising independence
InfoBrief is funded by advertising served through Google AdSense. Advertisers have no visibility into or influence over editorial decisions. We do not publish sponsored content, affiliate roundups disguised as guides, or paid placements.
Scope and limits
InfoBrief provides general information for U.S. readers. Nothing on the site is personalized financial, tax, legal, or medical advice. Articles on money and health topics carry a reminder to confirm decisions with the official program or a qualified professional.
