Editorial Policy

Last updated: October 1, 2026

How content is created

Visible Compute uses AI-assisted research combined with human editorial oversight. Our process:

1. Research – We gather information from primary sources: manufacturer specifications, official product pages, SDK documentation, and hands-on testing where possible.
2. Drafting – AI tools assist with structuring and drafting content based on verified sources.
3. Editorial review – A human editor reviews every article for accuracy, clarity, and completeness before publication.
4. Ongoing updates – Articles are revisited when new products launch, firmware updates ship, or pricing changes.

Fact-checking methodology

We prioritize primary sources: official manufacturer specifications, product documentation, SDK changelogs, and direct hands-on testing. This category has a history of overpromising — we verify claims independently.

Specific verification practices:

• Battery figures are attributed to the manufacturer or a named independent test. Source-powered glasses are not assigned an invented standalone runtime.
• Display specifications (FOV, resolution, brightness) are verified against official datasheets and independent reviews.
• Subscription costs and ongoing fees are confirmed from official pricing pages with dates noted.
• Translation and AI capabilities are checked against documented support and attributed independent findings. We do not claim our own testing unless a documented test exists.
• Privacy coverage distinguishes cameras, microphones, connected software and cloud services. We identify the documentation consulted and do not imply a full independent privacy audit.
• When primary sources are unavailable (e.g., unreleased products), we clearly mark claims as unconfirmed.

Articles that have been recently verified display a "✓ Verified" date in the article header.

Verified vs. unconfirmed information

• Verified claims – Backed by primary sources or hands-on testing with a verification date.
• Estimated/unconfirmed – Based on credible reporting, leaks, or pre-release information. Clearly labeled with words like "estimated," "rumored," or "unconfirmed."
