About The Circuitry
One place for all of technology. Real, sourced, checked.
The source, not the echo — our scoops come from the filing, the advisory, the release itself.
If it's in The Circuitry, it's true.
Hey, I'm Xavier. I built The Circuitry because I'd lost track of what was actually going on. I'd scroll X for hours, jump to news sites, then Facebook, then half a dozen other apps, and every time I closed everything I felt like I'd missed the story. There was no single place where every part of it was covered, factually, organized cleanly, where I could glance once and know what mattered.
So that's what this is. Every sector of technology pulled into one place: tech, gaming, markets, energy. Organized cleanly, checked against the original report before anything ships. No more scrolling for hours, no more tab-juggling, no more wondering who got the facts right.
Every story is sourced. Every claim is checked. When we get something wrong, we say so out loud at /corrections. That's the promise. More about Xavier Rivera.

How It Works
01 INGEST
RSS feeds, a live X firehose of watched accounts, and primary-source filings (SEC and the like), around the clock.
02 FILTER
Politics, fluff, and off-scope (entertainment, sports) get dropped. Only Tech, Gaming, Markets, Energy.
03 WRITE
Most items become short Feed posts. Full articles are the exception — scoops, synthesis, high-importance.
04 CHECK
Every article is fact-checked against the original source before it can earn VERIFIED. If it can’t be traced, it doesn’t ship.
05 DELIVER
It goes live on the site, to @thecircuitry_ and Bluesky, and into The Brief — the morning email.
The Rules
No speculation. No invented details. If a story can't be checked against a real source, it doesn't run. If a rumor is more than six months out, it doesn't run. If a leak has no named source behind it, it doesn't run anywhere.
Not everything real deserves 600 words. Credible, sourced news that's too small or too early for a full article runs as a short post on the Feed — clearly attributed, labeled for what it is, never dressed up as more.
No celebrity gossip, no awards drama, no music news, no sports. The scope is Tech, Gaming, Markets, and Energy. Adjacent stuff (game-IP movies, AI-in-Hollywood disputes, big-tech acquisitions of non-tech companies) comes through under whichever section fits closest.
How We Verify
Every article goes through an AI-powered fact-check pipeline before it earns a VERIFIED badge.
01 SOURCE CHECK · The original source URL is fetched and compared against the article's claims. Key facts, quotes, and figures are cross-referenced.
02 LIVE WEB SEARCH · A secondary search confirms details against multiple independent sources across the web.
03 VERDICT · Articles that pass both checks are marked VERIFIED. Those with discrepancies are flagged NEEDS REVIEW for manual inspection.
Not every article is verified instantly. The pipeline runs continuously, prioritizing the latest stories first. An unverified article hasn't been processed yet; it's not a claim of inaccuracy.
The Feed
The Feedis the whole day on one screen. Short, plain-language posts covering everything happening across tech, gaming, markets, and energy — the stories that matter but don't need a full article, each one sourced and attributed. Read top to bottom and you're caught up.
It's built to be left. Step away for an hour or a day, come back, and pick up right where you stopped — the list never reorders under you while you read. New posts wait at the top behind a counter until you ask for them, so catching up is one tap, not a hunt for where you were.
The Feed updates itself all day as the engine clears new stories. No refresh, no app, no algorithm deciding what you see — just the news, newest first.
The Brief
The whole day in tech, verified — one email. Two minutes, free forever.
Sections
Everything tech, organised four ways. Click into any of these to scope the feed.
Big tech and AI as a whole. Product launches, platform shifts, regulatory action, cybersecurity, developer tools, and the chip industry.
The gaming industry: major releases, the AAA calendar, console strategy, and the publishers and developers shaping what gets made.
Crypto and finance side by side. Major coin moves, regulator actions (SEC, CFTC, Fed, Treasury), big-dollar M&A, IPOs, and fund flows.
Electric vehicles and the energy sector: the EV industry at large, battery technology, charging infrastructure, grid policy, and the broader shift to electrification.
Source Trust Tiers
Not every outlet gets the same trust. Sources are classified into four tiers. The tier affects how the classifier handles stories from that outlet, whether rumor-style headlines can pass, and how strictly we cross-check claims at fact-check time. Full source list lives at /sources.
T1 · WIRE & FIRST-PARTY
Wire services, top-tier journalism, and official first-party platform channels. Highest trust. These sources break or confirm news, they don't guess.
T2 · NAMED REPORTERS & MAJOR OUTLETS
Reporters with established track records and the major tech outlets that employ them. Trusted to source their own stories and label speculation correctly.
T3 · FOCUSED OUTLETS
Domain-specialist outlets, usually focused on a single sector. Reliable on their beat, less polished editorial process than T2.
T4 · EVERYTHING ELSE
Default tier for sources not yet classified. Stories from T4 sources face stricter verification before they can earn a VERIFIED badge.
Honest About the AI
I use AI to help run this. That's how one person can cover tech, gaming, markets, and energy all at the same time. There's no way I'd read every source feed on my own. The model reads the feeds, drafts the summaries, and runs a fact-check pass against every article before it's allowed to publish.
The rules the model follows are mine. I don't read every item before it ships. If something feels off, that's on me — and it goes in the corrections log.
Nothing here is invented. The fact-check pass exists specifically to catch hallucinated quotes and fabricated numbers. If a draft can't be traced back to a real source, it doesn't ship. When something slips past anyway, it goes in the corrections log, in public, with a timestamp.
How It’s Funded
Reading is free and stays free. To pay for it, the site runs display ads — served by Adsterra, banner-only, always labeled, and kept brand-safe (no adult, gambling, or dating ads). They sit apart from the journalism and never influence what gets covered or how it’s verified — the editorial firewall is absolute.
Some readers also chip in directly through Buy Me a Coffee, which keeps the lights on without a paywall.
