NQ (News Quality) Score
AI News Proprietary Quality Evaluation System
What is NQ?
NQ is a proprietary quality metric developed by AI News. Every press release is automatically evaluated across 6 dimensions, producing a score from 0 to 100. Processing 2,000+ releases per day, NQ delivers fair, size-agnostic assessments regardless of company scale or reputation.
6 Evaluation Dimensions
Whether the 5W1H (who, what, when, where, why, how) are present. Missing information reduces the score.
Whether each sentence contains new facts, numbers, or proper nouns. Redundant repetition is penalised.
Importance, uniqueness, and timeliness. Measures industry impact and the novelty of the information.
Degree of structuring via headings, bullet points, and numeric notation — how accurately AI agents can parse the content.
Likelihood of syndication, citation, and social sharing. Presence of original data and case studies is key.
Depth of trend analysis, future outlook, and industry context — insight beyond a surface-level announcement.
