Transparency
AI Disclosure
HoursBackLab is an AI education and systems business. We use AI tools extensively in our own operations. We believe that being transparent about how we use AI is not just good practice, it's the standard we want the industry to adopt.
How we use AI on this website
Website development
This website was built with the assistance of AI coding tools. All code is reviewed and tested before deployment.
Written content
Page content on this site is created with AI assistance and reviewed by Linda Cunningham. Blog posts are AI-generated and published through an automated pipeline. Where statistics are cited, they are sourced from AI research with citations provided. The editorial direction and strategy are human.
Chatbot
The chat widget on this site is powered by an AI language model (Claude Haiku by Anthropic). It can answer questions about our services and collect your details so Linda can follow up. It is not a human. Conversations may be reviewed to improve the service.
AI Readiness Assessment
The free assessment at score.hoursbacklab.com uses AI to generate scoring and personalised insights based on your responses. This process is fully automated with no human review of individual results. Results are indicative and should not be treated as professional advice.
Our principles for AI use
Human direction. Page content is reviewed before publication. Blog posts are AI-generated through an automated pipeline directed by Linda Cunningham's editorial strategy.
Honest disclosure. We label AI-generated content clearly. We do not present AI-generated content as if it were written entirely by a human.
No fake testimonials. We will never use AI to generate testimonials, reviews, case studies, or client quotes. All social proof on this site is from real people. Statistics cited in blog posts are sourced from AI research with citations provided.
Transparency over perfection. We would rather be honest about our AI use than hide it. If you have questions about how any piece of content was created, email us at hello@hoursbacklab.com.
Blog post disclosures
Blog posts carry a disclosure at the end of each post. Blog content is AI-generated through an automated publishing pipeline. The topics, editorial direction, and publishing strategy are set by Linda Cunningham. Individual posts are not manually reviewed before publication.
Why we disclose
Linda runs InTheClearAI, an AI compliance assessment service for Australian businesses. We believe the businesses teaching others about AI should lead by example. Transparent AI disclosure builds trust, and trust is the foundation of everything we do.
