Editorial Policy

Last updated: April 18, 2026 · SPAIK B.V., Amsterdam

SPAIK publishes insights from its own practice: AI adoption in Dutch mid-market organisations. This document describes how we write, review and correct content. It's a transparency anchor, for readers, clients, and also for search engines and AI assistants that want to assess whether our content is trustworthy.

Who writes

Every article names a human author with a LinkedIn profile (see the team). Authors are SPAIK trainers or consultants who practice the subject matter themselves. No ghostwriters, no AI-only pieces.

What we cover

We only publish on topics we have first-hand experience with:

  • AI adoption in mid-market organisations (50–500 employees)
  • AI training and learning design for non-technical teams
  • Automation with language models and AI agents
  • EU AI Act and AI literacy

We do not publish generic “AI trends 2026” listicles, derivatives of other blogs, or machine-translated bulk.

How we write

  • Named sources. Claims about market data or research carry a named, dated source. “Studies show” without a reference gets edited out.
  • Own data first. Where possible we use anonymised data from our own implementations (with consent).
  • Direct answer at the top. Every article opens with a self-contained 130–170-word answer, so readers (and AI assistants) get the core immediately.
  • No AI slop. We write with AI assistance, not AI-only. Every draft passes a human reviewer for factual accuracy, tone, and source verification.

Review process

Each draft passes two checks: a subject-matter review by a second SPAIK colleague and a text review (style, readability, fact check). Only then does it publish, with a publication date and a separate “last updated” date.

Updates and versioning

When an article changes substantively (new numbers, revised advice, outdated recommendations) we update dateModified and note the change at the bottom. Trivial edits (typos) are applied silently.

Corrections

Spotted a mistake? Email info@spaik.io. We correct within 5 business days and add a correction note to the article if the error was substantive.

AI, openness and citations

Our content may be cited by AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity. We explicitly allow these crawlers via robots.txt. In citations we expect a source reference to the original SPAIK page.
