What the terminal
will not do
Three commitments hold the wire together. They are architectural, not editorial policy — the pipeline enforces them on every row, on every pass, whether or not anyone is watching.
- It will not guess.
- A figure we cannot source is an em-dash, never an estimate. Every benchmark score, price and claim carries the source it came from and the tier it was verified at — and you can click through to the exact row on the original, not a landing page.
- It will not play favourites.
- American, Chinese and European labs are covered to the same standard. DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, GLM, MiniMax and StepFun get the same benchmark extraction and the same launch tracking as OpenAI, Anthropic and Google. Missing a launch is treated as a defect, not an editorial choice.
- It will not pad.
- Most of what arrives never publishes. What does is the thing that moved — corroborated across independent outlets, dated to its first publication, and marked when it is still developing.
