How We Write and Review Our Resources
Who writes and reviews it
Pages are written with AI assistance and checked by a person. Chris Cavell, Founder of StarlightIQ, reviews each page before it is published. We call this approach AI-assisted, human-verified.
What it is and is not
The library is educational. It explains terms, shows what to look for, and suggests questions to ask. It is not legal or financial advice. For large or complex agreements, have a lawyer review the contract.
How we keep it accurate
- We do not publish figures unless we can source them. Where a number comes from StarlightIQ’s own creator research, we say so, with the sample size and date.
- Where a page relies on a rule or a platform feature, we link to the primary source and show the date we checked it.
- Contract templates are reviewed by a lawyer before they are published.
How we keep it current
Every page shows the date it was last updated. We review each page at least once a quarter, and sooner when a rule or platform changes.
Independence
StarlightIQ makes a tool for managing brand deals. The guides are written to educate, not to sell. Any mention of StarlightIQ is clearly set apart as a call to action.
