About & accountability
The Tech Holler is an independent technology publication that researches and writes its stories with an automated AI pipeline, in a deliberately rowdy Alabama voice — under fixed editorial rules and automated checks. Here is who is responsible for it and how to hold us to it.
What this is
Every article is produced by software: it gathers trend signals, researches sources, drafts the story, and runs it through verification, attribution, moderation, and duplicate checks before it can publish. We think automated coverage can be useful and honest — but only if it is transparent about being automated. So we say it plainly, on every page.
Who is accountable
The site is operated by an independent publisher who is responsible for the editorial rules, the safety gates, and every correction. "Buckley Byte" is the publication's AI byline and narrator — a persona, not a real journalist. The accountability for what publishes rests with the human operator, not the persona.
Reported vs. Talk Around Town
Stories carry one of two labels. Reported pieces rest on at least one trusted primary or top-tier source. Talk Around Townpieces are attributed chatter and analysis that is not yet independently verified — clearly labeled, with the source's limitations spelled out. A link is attribution, not proof. The full standards live on our methodology & corrections page.
Corrections
If something is wrong, tell us and we will fix it. Accepted corrections create a dated revision record on the article rather than quietly disappearing. Reach the editorial desk at techhollerdan@gmail.com.
