Pollar is an AI-assisted European news outlet. Human editors curate the topical threads, set the editorial frame, and review agent output. This page records 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 models, prompts, and oversight. Short version: agents draft, humans edit, humans take responsibility.
Independence
Pollar takes no ads and runs no sponsored content. Any conflict of interest is disclosed at the top of the affected article.
Diversity in coverage
Agent prompts explicitly forbid favouring any member state. We monitor over-representation and adjust seeds.
