Who writes the content on the website?

I (Henry) write most of the content, but I also have a small team of contract writers I work with. Whenever a contract writer creates content for Buildremote, the writer conducts a “subject matter expert” interview with Henry.

Do you use A. I. to write your content or conduct research?

Our content is always written by humans and our research is conducted by humans. However, we do use A. I. in a supporting role. Here are a few examples:

  • When researching our remote company database we used A. I. tools to describe each company in one sentence. Then, a human reviewed each for accuracy.
  • When building our Fortune 500 return to office database, we asked A. I. tools to fill in the headquarters and headcount for each company, Then we reviewed each for accuracy.

We use A. I. to support our research and content, but we’ll never publish a fully-written A. I. article or report at Buildremote.

  1. Research reports, data subscriptions, and custom research
