Memodate’s articles are drafted with AI, then checked against the sources we link in the text. Here is who we are, how that works, and how to tell us when we get something wrong.
Who makes Memodate
Memodate is made by Ian Magee, a sole trader in London. Memodate is also the name of our iPhone app, which teaches the Major System as a game. The articles are published under the name Memodate rather than a person’s name, because they’re written with AI help and checked by us, not written by one author from scratch.
How we use AI
We draft each article with an AI model, working from research we gather first. Then we check every fact against its source before it goes up. If we can’t confirm something, we take it out. Each article says so under its title: “Drafted with AI and fact-checked against the sources linked in the text.”
How we handle facts and sources
- Every fact links to where it comes from, in the sentence that states it.
- We prefer primary sources: the study itself, the original book, the official page. Where we use a summary, like Wikipedia or a news report, we say so.
- We don’t invent numbers, dates or quotes. A quote appears only if we’ve read it in a named source.
- When we describe a study, we say what it actually tested. If it tested a different technique from the one we’re writing about, we say that too.
- The date at the top of an article is when it was published. If we change an article in a way that matters, we add an updated date.
Memodate is our own app
We make an app, and we write about the subject it teaches. So whenever an article mentions Memodate, it says plainly that the app is ours. We don’t call it the best, the first or the most popular, and the pictures and voices we use from it are labelled as coming from it.
Corrections
If you spot a mistake, a broken link or a source that doesn’t say what we claim, email support@memodateapp.com. Tell us the page and what’s wrong. We’ll check it and fix the article if you’re right.
