Peter Stuart spent 20 years in journalism before quitting his editorial role at in late 2025 to build an AI-powered publishing platform called Velora. In this conversation, he walks through what that platform actually does: a news discovery engine that monitors hundreds of sources across multiple languages, an AI co-writing tool that challenges and strengthens copy, automated CMS population, social image generation, and a verification layer that can block publication until flagged errors are resolved. The conversation gets into the editorial philosophy behind it all. Peter argues that the real value of AI in a newsroom isn't replacing judgment but eliminating the repetitive work that crowds it out.
