AI Use Disclosure
A plain statement, not a footnote we hope you skip.
What AI Is Used For Here
This site is built and maintained by a small independent team using AI-assisted tools alongside primary-source research — for drafting guide content, building and testing calculators, and researching current regulations, pay determinations and pension rules. That's a genuine, material part of how this site is produced, and we'd rather say so plainly than let you assume otherwise.
What Isn't Left To AI Alone
Every calculator's underlying maths is built against the specific regulations, determinations and rate tables listed in our Source Policy — figures aren't generated freely, they're computed from those sources and checked against them. Published figures are directed and reviewed by the site owner before going live, and are correctable through our Corrections Policy if something slips through.
What This Doesn't Replace
Nothing on this site — AI-assisted or otherwise — is individual legal, financial or pension advice. Pay, pension and tax rules have edge cases and exceptions that a general guide can't capture for your specific circumstances. For a decision that actually matters (retirement timing, a pension transfer, a legal dispute), speak to your force's HR or pension administrator, a regulated financial adviser, or a solicitor. See our Terms of Service for the full position.
