Methodology
How data points, source citations, and startup intelligence context are assembled for newsroom stories.
Data Assembly
- Funding, stage, and hiring details are reconciled using source references and internal entity data.
- Entity mapping connects story coverage to company and founder profile pages when available.
- Topic clustering is used to group related stories so readers can compare signals without manually searching multiple routes.
- Country, stage, and industry mappings are normalized to reduce duplication and improve route consistency.
Quality Gates
- Minimum content depth, citation checks, and editorial review are required before publish.
- Discover-readiness checks include metadata completeness, image quality, and source attribution.
- Templates are reviewed for crawlability and internal-link depth to ensure major hubs remain reachable in a few clicks.
- If content quality falls below useful depth, pages may remain live for users but be excluded from index-focused surfaces until expanded.
Update and maintenance model
- Published pages are periodically reviewed for stale references, broken links, and outdated source context.
- When entities evolve through new rounds, leadership changes, or hiring shifts, linked pages are refreshed to preserve continuity.
- Methodology itself is updated as editorial systems improve, and those updates are reflected in trust pages and workflows.
