Pipeline
How this site produces its analysis
Methodology
Every piece published on The Fiduciary follows a five-stage pipeline. AI systems handle research, analysis, adversarial review, and drafting. A licensed attorney makes every editorial and publication decision. This is what accountable AI-assisted work looks like.
This is what the Minnesota Digital Trust & Consumer Protection Act would require of any AI-assisted professional service: transparent methodology, clear attribution of AI and human contributions, and human accountability at the point of publication.
This site practices what the Digital Trust Act would require.

Stage 5: Attorney Review
