What Etudesk is
Etudesk helps you discover the independent creators in your places and what they make. They choose, sign and publish their content under their own responsibility, keep ownership of it and are paid through qualified reads, sponsored coverage and a share of Premium revenue. No followers to collect here: visibility is earned by the quality of each creation. Echoes are free. Creations — in-depth reporting, analyses, datasets and courses — are accessible with a Discovery or Premium pass. Lives are open to everyone or restricted, according to the creator's choice and the hashtag's rules. Subjects protected from sponsorship remain accessible to everyone.
Community rules
Common rules apply to all content, alongside guidance for each hashtag. Check and attribute facts, distinguish analysis from sponsorship and disclose interests. Respect dignity, privacy, the presumption of innocence and content rights. Anonymise minors and victims; reject hate, harassment, threats and fraud. Date images, label reconstructions and correct mistakes. Checks help identify issues; they do not guarantee that content is true. Creators remain responsible for their publications and compliance with applicable law.
Freshness and corrections
An echo covers a fact less than 72 hours old. Creations and lives are not subject to this window: specify the dates of events, data and images without presenting archives as current. A correction is marked “Updated” and explains what changed. Distinguish it from new information; remove dangerous or privacy-infringing details promptly.
Subjects protected from sponsoring
There are 7 subjects protected from sponsoring: politics, procurement, public services, justice, safety, emergencies and religion. No content on them is sponsored or restricted to a pass; lives on these subjects remain free. A creator report is distinct from an official announcement: attribute testimony, provisional figures and confirmed information. On Etudesk, do not publish electoral polls or unofficial results. Follow applicable local restrictions and do not reveal ongoing operational positions.
Sponsored content
Paid coverage follows Etudesk's sponsorship process and shows “Sponsored by”, followed by the sponsor's name, before reading. It follows the same editorial rules; the sponsor has no right of review or guarantee of a favourable opinion. Gifts, invitations and interests are also disclosed. Protected hashtags accept no sponsorship; others specify authorised partners and content. Each creator publishes at most one sponsored piece for every 4 published without a sponsor, regardless of format.
Reports and right of reply
Report a specific issue from the content concerned; every report is reviewed and does not, by itself, prove a violation. Misleading reports or reports coordinated to cause harm are prohibited. For a correction, right of reply or review of a decision, contact Support with the content reference and relevant evidence. A person or organisation named in content can exercise their right of reply, published within 24 hours in the same place. Unlawful or manifestly false content is removed.
Artificial intelligence
Creators may use AI assistance but check facts and references, review and approve what they publish. Synthetic images, voices or scenes and reconstructions are labelled and never presented as real evidence. Editing must not change the meaning of a documentary scene. On the Intelligence page, Etudesk's analyst agent helps explore content, available data and Web sources. Its answers and references may contain errors: consult sources before relying on a claim.
