Meridian › Method
Meridian is a governed pipeline, not a newsroom. Every night it reads official sources only — regulators, legislatures, official journals — detects what changed, and publishes plain-English briefings under rules that make fabrication structurally difficult.
The language model may only narrate facts a deterministic extractor already pulled from the source. It cannot introduce a date, figure, or entity of its own.
Every date, figure, and named entity in a draft must appear verbatim in the underlying source, or the item is demoted.
A second, independent model checks that the source supports every sentence. Disagreement demotes the item.
Full briefing, headline-plus-link, or logged-only. When the system is uncertain, the brief gets shorter — never wrong.
Meridian answers “does this rulebook reach organizations like ours?” It never renders compliance judgments — that line is enforced mechanically at publish time.
Signed interpretive notes are produced by the Editorial Doctrine — the editor’s recurring analytical moves, codified as data, applied by the pipeline, validated against source, and attested by the editor quarterly. What is signed is the doctrine, not each sentence — the supervision model we would argue enterprises need for their own AI.
Not legal advice. Not a compliance assessment. Not a substitute for counsel. It is regulatory awareness, delivered early and in plain language, with a permanent public record.
