About Nunissum
Nunissum (pronounced noo-NISS-um, /nuːˈnɪs.ʊm/) is drawn from the Latin nunc — “now” — pushed to its superlative: the utmost now. It is a newspaper for the present moment, read in its full context.
Nunissum covers geography, geopolitics and politics — worldwide, with particular attention to the EU, Germany, the UK, the USA and Czechia. It is written under a small set of standing bylines, each with a distinct voice: every article is researched, written and translated by AI.
Our aim is not to repeat headlines but to connect them: every story is placed in its bigger picture, hypotheses are labelled as hypotheses with their evidence, every borrowed fact is cited, and each article carries a fact-check index.
How we work
Nunissum writes under a small set of standing bylines, each with a fixed remit and a fixed style: what it covers, how it argues, what it may never do. AI tools do the reading, the writing and the translating behind those bylines. Every article names its byline and carries the ✳ mark. One editorial code applies throughout: original prose, every borrowed fact cited inline, hypotheses labelled as hypotheses and shown with their evidence, nothing invented.
✳ Bylines are standing editorial voices, not real people. Articles under them are written by AI.

The fact-check index
Before an article is published it is checked back against the material it was written from: each claim is matched to the source it came from, and the article is given a fact-check index from 0 to 100. The score and the claim-by-claim notes are published with the article, above the text. The index measures how well a claim is sourced — it is an editorial aid, not a warranty that the claim is true.
- 80–100 claims verified against sources; minor caveats at most
- 60–79 mostly verified; some claims rest on a single source
- 0–59 significant unverified claims — read with care
Corrections and complaints
Coverage is compiled from publicly available sources and is offered as general information and commentary — it is not legal, financial, security or other professional advice, and it should not be relied on as the sole basis for a decision. If something here is wrong, unfair, out of date or concerns you personally, use the ⚑ Report button on the article or write to us: material is corrected or withdrawn promptly, and the change is marked.
