PIJAlance Magazine Limited
PIJAlance Magazine is a Nigerian publication devoted to investigative storytelling, fact-checking and news intelligence. For years our work has meant tracing claims back to their source and explaining what the evidence really shows. News Intelligence takes that same discipline and puts it within reach of anyone with a phone.
The technology is new. The standards are the ones every good newsroom already keeps.
How the work is shared
Editorial
Sets the verification method, the verdict definitions and the rules for what counts as evidence, and decides which claims must always go to a human.
Fact-checkers and editors
Review the claims the system holds back, such as deaths, elections and disputed official statements, and publish the final verdict under their own name.
Research and data
Maintain the ratings of news outlets and official bodies, the record of past fact-checks and the archive the system searches.
Engineering
Build and run the checking pipeline, the safety checks that stop weak or mixed-up evidence, and the website you are using now.
Our commitments to you
- Independence. Verdicts follow the evidence, not any political, commercial or personal interest.
- Transparency. We show our sources, explain our verdicts and say plainly when AI was involved.
- Correction. If we get something wrong, we fix it openly. Tell us when you spot an error; that is what this testing stage is for.
