# Editorial and AI policy

Updated September 26, 2026

We use AI to help draft our articles, and a person checks, edits and approves every one before it goes live. Nothing on this site is published automatically. This page explains how an article is made, how we check facts, how we handle images and how to report a mistake.

## Who is responsible for what we publish?

Gideon Sama, our Lead Strategist & Engineer, reviews, fact-checks and edits every article and approves it before publication. He has been building for the web since 2007 and is accountable for what we publish. [Read more about us](https://mybebine.com/about/).

Articles drafted with AI assistance are labeled as AI-assisted and human-reviewed.

## How is an article made?

1. **We pick the topic.** We write about real questions our clients and prospects ask about websites, SEO, Google Ads, Google Merchant Center and AI search.
2. **We pick the sources.** Mostly official documentation from Google and other vendors, plus other primary sources where needed.
3. **AI writes a first draft from those sources.** Google Gemini reads the pages we select through its URL context tool and produces a structured draft. It works from the pages we give it rather than searching the web on its own, and it never receives the messages or personal data you send us.
4. **A person edits.** The editor checks each claim against its source, rewrites what needs rewriting and adds what AI can’t: first-hand experience and context for Cameroon and the CEMAC region.
5. **A person approves.** Only then is the article published.

## How do we check facts?

- Every factual claim is checked against its source, which we link where the claim is made.
- Statistics state who measured them and when.
- We prefer primary sources, such as Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, W3C, web.dev and HTTP Archive, over blogs and roundups.
- Each article ends with a list of the sources we used.
- We never invent statistics, quotes, testimonials, client names or results.

## Are the French versions machine-translated?

No. We don’t publish raw machine translation. Our French articles are written or adapted for French-speaking readers, then reviewed before publication. AI may help with a first adaptation, but a person checks the French text, its terminology and its examples.

## Are your images AI-generated?

Some are. Cover images may be created with Google’s Gemini image model. Those images carry Google’s invisible [SynthID watermark](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/image-generation) and IPTC metadata identifying them as [trained algorithmic media](https://cv.iptc.org/newscodes/digitalsourcetype/trainedAlgorithmicMedia), meaning images created with generative AI, and we label them as AI-generated on the page. We never use AI images as evidence: the screenshots and results we show are real.

## Do you publish sponsored content?

No. We don’t accept sponsored posts or paid placements, and we don’t use affiliate links. We may mention tools we use ourselves; nobody pays us for those mentions. Many of our articles relate to services we sell, and we link to those services openly.

## How do we update and correct articles?

Google, AI assistants and ad platforms change often, so we revisit articles when the facts change. An article’s update date changes only for substantive edits, not for typo fixes or design changes.

Found an error? Email [support@mybebine.com](mailto:support@mybebine.com) with “Correction” in the subject line and tell us what is wrong and where. When we make a material correction, we note it at the end of the article with the date.

## Why use AI at all?

AI helps us turn long official documentation into a clear first draft quickly. It does not choose what we publish, invent our experience or replace the editor’s judgment. We follow [Google’s guidance on using generative AI content](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/fundamentals/using-gen-ai-content): the goal is accurate, useful articles, not volume.
