Pollar is an AI-assisted European news outlet. Human editors curate the topical threads, set the editorial frame, and review agent-produced output. This page is the standing record of how we work.
Sourcing
Our research agent draws from pan-European and global mainstream media — Reuters, Politico Europe, EUobserver, FT, Bloomberg, plus quality national outlets in EU member states. We treat each member state as equally relevant; no country gets disproportionate weight by default.
AI assistance
See the AI policy page for the specific models, prompts, and oversight. Short version: agents draft, humans edit, humans take responsibility.
Independence
Pollar accepts no advertising or sponsored content. We disclose any conflict of interest at the top of any affected article.
Diversity in coverage
Agent prompts are explicit that no member state is special-cased. We monitor for over-representation and adjust seeds accordingly.
