How we write, check, and correct.
Money content is worth trusting only if you can see how it was made. Here is our whole process, including the parts most publishers leave out.
Every product claim is checked against the code
When an article says Wealth Mutant does something, that sentence was verified against the actual source code before it published, not against a marketing page or someone’s memory of how the feature works.
This matters more than it sounds. Product documentation drifts: a threshold changes, a screen moves, and the help article quietly becomes wrong. Every article carries a list of the product surfaces it depends on, so when one of those surfaces changes, we can find every affected article instead of hoping to remember them.
Every article carries a verification date
Articles show when they were published and when they were last updated. Behind that, each one also records the date its facts were last checked against the product. Anything unverified for more than 90 days is flagged for review in our internal catalog.
We never backdate. A publish date is the day the article actually went live, and an update date means something was genuinely revised. Faking either would corrupt the freshness record we rely on to keep the library honest.
No invented numbers, ever
We do not publish fabricated statistics, made-up survey results, or invented testimonials. When an article names a psychological effect, it names the real one, and when it uses a number, that number is either arithmetic you can reproduce or a figure we can point to.
Worked examples use round illustrative figures, and they say so. The math in them is real math: if an article claims one extra payment saves a given amount of interest, the calculation behind it is the same engine the product uses.
A written standard for the prose itself
We keep a documented writing standard covering the patterns that make text feel generic: inflated significance, hedged attribution, filler structure, and the vocabulary that signals nobody was really paying attention. Part of it runs automatically over every article before it can publish; the rest is judgment.
The register is deliberate too. Articles say the reassuring, true thing first, and they explain rather than lecture. We use universal financial principles instead of one country’s tax code, because a retirement match is a retirement match whether it is a 401(k), an RRSP, Super, EPF, or CPF.
What we will not do
No paid placements, no affiliate links inside articles, and no “best of” lists sold to the highest bidder. When we compare ourselves to another product, we name what that product does better, because a comparison that only flatters us is an advertisement wearing a lab coat.
Help articles carry no sales pitch at all. Help that sells stops being trusted, so the only commercial line on a help page is a quiet note for people who arrived from a search engine and do not yet know what this is.
We are also not financial advisers. The articles explain mechanisms and trade-offs; decisions about your investments, debts, or insurance deserve a qualified professional who knows your situation.
Corrections
If something here is wrong, we want to fix it rather than defend it. Email support@wealthmutant.com and a human replies within 24 hours on business days.
Substantive corrections are made in the article itself and the update date is bumped, so the change is visible rather than silent. Factual errors get fixed as soon as we can confirm them.
