Unjargoned explains the AI news that matters, at three levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. It arrives free by email every weekday at 7am, or once a week on Saturday, in a Global and a UK edition. Our readers are choosing which AI tools to use, and sponsors meet them there.

People who use AI, or want to, and want it explained without the hype. Every story is written three times, once for each level, and ends with something to try.
- BeginnerNew to AI tools, or using them for quick questions. Plain English, no assumptions.
- IntermediateUsing AI for writing and summarising. Ready to get it working on real tasks.
- AdvancedBuilding with AI or wiring it into tools. Signal, specifics and the technical detail.
What they come to us for
- Which AI tools to use for writing, meetings, video, bookkeeping and code.
- The AI news that matters, explained at their level in five minutes.
- Something to try in a couple of minutes, at the end of every story.
- Verdicts they can trust: our editors test the tools, and no sponsor can buy a verdict.

- Sam: runs a small business, Beginner
- Priya: uses AI at work, Intermediate

Reporting
Every booking comes with a private report, at a link only you have. It fills in day by day while your placement runs, and you can print it or save it as a PDF at any time.
- For email placements: the emails that carried it each day, how many were delivered, unique opens and the open rate, from beehiiv, our email provider.
- For every placement: clicks on your link, by day and by where readers clicked, an email or our website.
- The click rate: clicks from the emails as a share of unique opens.
- We count clicks, not people. Your report never says who clicked, and link checkers and crawlers aren’t counted.
How ads work here
- Every placement is labelled, and none sits inside a story.
- Sponsors cannot buy, see or change our editorial coverage or tool verdicts.
- We don’t take ads for gambling, payday loans, crypto trading or get-rich-quick schemes, or political ads.
- Offers from AI companies are paid placements. If we earn a commission from a link, we say so next to it.
The full policy is on our standards page.
