Vermilleon Editorial
How we write these.
Our question pages are drafted with AI from a written brief, then checked against the rules below by automated tests and a separate review before they are published. Pages that fail are not published.
- Answer first
- Every page answers its question in the first few sentences, before anything else.
- Patterns, not single texts
- One message is weak evidence. Pages teach what to look for across weeks of messages.
- Fair to the other person
- Every page gives the innocent explanations: busy weeks, different texting habits, people who are better in person.
- No labels, no diagnoses
- We describe behaviour. We don't call anyone toxic or a narcissist, and we don't diagnose attachment styles.
- No invented facts
- No made-up statistics, studies, experts or quotes. A claim that isn't common knowledge is cited from a short list of sources we have checked, or it's cut.
- Illustrative chats are illustrative
- Example conversations are written for the page and labelled as such. They are never real people's messages.
- Safety first
- When a topic can involve fear, control or harm, the page says where to get help. No page explains how to monitor anyone.
- One honest line about the app
- Each page mentions Vermilleon once, only where a feature genuinely helps, and only in words that match what the app does.
