About Us

Who We Are

Lifewire's mission is to help people get the most out of the technology. We publish the latest tech news, educational how-to articles, and independent product advice and reviews for millions of users each month.

We aim to help our readers understand the constant changes in the tech world, figure out what products enhance their lives, and learn how to make it all work. Our cohort of professionals—authors, educators, software developers, speakers, consultants, tech support agents, and more—all work together to create articles that you can trust. And we do it all without the pretentiousness or confusing jargon you’ll often find in the industry. We offer Tech for Humans.

Editorial Guidelines

We take a lot of pride in the quality of our content here at Lifewire. While we cover hundreds of different topics, they all have one thing in common: readers looking for tech information they can trust. Our writers create high-quality, original, accurate, expert content that is free of ethical concerns, bias, conflicts of interest, or misinformation.

If you ever come across an article you think needs to be improved, please email us at [email protected] and let us know.

AI Policy

At Lifewire, we aspire to provide the highest quality content produced by humans, for humans. It is against our guidelines to publish automatically generated content using AI (artificial intelligence) writing tools such as ChatGPT. We are aligned with the People Inc. Content Integrity Promise.

All of our content is professionally edited before publishing to ensure compliance with our strict standards. Our experienced editors check for readability, formatting, spelling and grammar, photo and screenshot quality, inclusive language and imagery, and much more.

Sponsorships

Lifewire is committed to independent, impartial, fair journalism. Our editorial content is not influenced by our advertisers. Every Lifewire staff member and contributor is held accountable to a high standard of honesty and transparency. We maintain a strict separation between advertising and editorial content. Our “Sponsored Content” is labeled to make clear that such content is provided by or on behalf of an advertiser or sponsor.
