1. What TechCapsules Is

TechCapsules is an independent, India-based tech news brief service. We curate the day's most consequential stories across roughly 30 categories — from AI and semiconductors to space, robotics, energy, defense, and consumer technology — and publish short, accessible briefs that link back to the original reporting.

We are not an investigative newsroom and we do not claim to be. We are a curation and summarization service that respects the publications doing original reporting and helps readers stay informed across more sources than they could practically follow on their own.

2. How Our Briefs Are Produced

Every brief on TechCapsules goes through the following workflow:

• Source selection. An editorial pipeline ingests articles from a curated list of trusted technology publications via RSS feeds and the Newsdata.io news API. Sources are selected for their track record on tech reporting and are reviewed periodically. Low-quality, paywalled-headline, and aggregator-only sources are excluded.
• AI-assisted summarization. Each selected article is processed by a large language model (currently Groq's Llama 3.3 and related models) which produces a concise 60–80 word summary and an analytical "Why It Matters" section consisting of one to two short observations. The model is given only the publicly available article text — no private user data is involved.
• Human editorial review. Before publication, the editor (Shubham, founder of TechCapsules) reviews the AI-generated brief, the selected categories, and the source attribution. Briefs that are factually weak, unclear, or that don't add value beyond the headline are rejected. Categories assigned by the model are verified against the article's actual subject matter.
• Publication and attribution. Approved briefs are published with a clear link to the original article on the source publication's website, along with the source domain displayed in the brief header. Readers are encouraged to click through to the original reporting for full context.

3. Use of Artificial Intelligence

We use AI for the following specific purposes:

• Producing the short summary text that appears under each brief
• Producing the "Why It Matters" analytical bullet points
• Suggesting category assignments for new articles
• Selecting the most representative featured image from the source article

We do not use AI for:

• Original reporting or interviews (we don't do these)
• Fabricating quotes, statistics, or claims
• Generating images, illustrations, or video
• Writing the editorial pages of this site (this page, About, Privacy, Terms, Disclaimer) — these are written by Shubham directly

We are explicit about this because honest disclosure of AI use matters more than masking it. If you read a brief on TechCapsules, you are reading an AI-generated summary that a human editor reviewed and approved before publication.

4. Source Attribution

Every brief on TechCapsules:

• Names the original source publication in the brief header
• Links to the original article via a clearly labelled call-to-action button
• Does not reproduce more than a short summary of the source article — readers must click through for the full reporting
• Credits the source publication for the original journalism

If you are a publisher and believe we have over-summarised your work, or if you would prefer your publication be excluded from our source list, please email editorial@techcapsules.com and we will respond promptly.

5. Editorial Independence

TechCapsules has no paid relationships with the companies, products, or technologies it covers. We do not accept payment for inclusion of any story, and we do not coordinate with any third party on editorial decisions. Advertising on the site (when present) is served through standard ad networks and does not influence which stories we cover or how they are framed.

Our newsletter sponsorships, if any, are clearly labelled as such and never blend into editorial content.

6. Corrections Policy

If you spot a factual error in a TechCapsules brief, please email editorial@techcapsules.com with the article URL and a description of the error. We will:

• Acknowledge the report within two business days
• Investigate against the original source
• Correct the brief if the error is confirmed, with a note at the bottom indicating what was changed and when
• Remove the brief entirely if the original source has been retracted

Because our briefs are summaries of third-party reporting, factual errors in the original article are the responsibility of the source publication. We will, however, take down our brief and link to any correction issued by the source.

7. Accountability

This site is operated by Shubham, an independent developer-publisher based in Ghaziabad, India. TechCapsules is not part of any larger media organisation. If you have feedback, criticism, or questions about anything on this site, you can reach the editor directly at editorial@techcapsules.com or via the Contact page.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our editorial process, sources, or AI tools change. Material changes will be noted by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
