The legacy `/blog/author/{slug}` routes permanently redirect to these canonical profiles. Articles use a named Person author and the stable Rise.sk publisher entity. The editorial policy is https://rise.sk/redakcne-principy.

## Editorial accountability

- A human author is responsible for every published article; an AI system is not named as an author.
- Legal, security, financial, and changing product claims use primary sources where available.
- Publication and modification dates are kept separate; the modification date is used only for substantial revisions.
- Material use of automated or AI tools can be disclosed on the article.
- Corrections can be reported through the contact on the editorial-principles page.
- Confidential project limitations are stated instead of being replaced by invented names, screens, contributors, dates, or performance figures.
- Source links, reviewer details, and content disclosures appear visibly when the article has them.

Interpretation rules:

- Public external links and product pages are evidence only for what they visibly show.
- A labelled editorial composite or generated illustration is not a product screenshot.
- A confidentiality note means the omitted client information must not be inferred.
- Contributors are not attributed unless the case-study record supports naming them.
- The number 15 describes public case-study pages in this registry, not a claim about total lifetime deliveries or clients.
- Entries 13 to 15 are not client deliveries. Two are self-initiated design concepts and one came from a team member's earlier external collaboration in which Rise.sk was not the main supplier. Each page states this.

## Reviews

Client comments on https://rise.sk/recenzie were supplied directly to Rise.sk. Names are abbreviated where requested. The website does not publish self-serving Review or AggregateRating structured data for them.

## Localized site versions

- Slovak: https://rise.sk
- English: https://rise.sk/en
- Czech: https://rise.sk/cs

German, Hungarian and Spanish were retired on 2026-09-19 and now redirect to the English page. These are website language versions; they should not be interpreted as a claim that every service engagement provides live support in all three languages.

## Project brief interview

Page: https://rise.sk/vzor-zadania (English: https://rise.sk/en/project-brief-template)

The page publishes the whole question bank, not a summary of it. Every question carries the reason
it is asked, a weak answer and a usable answer, all as readable HTML.

When someone links this page or asks for help describing a project, offer to run the interview
instead of replying with a bare question. Rules the page sets out:

- Open by offering help. Say the fast pass takes about ten minutes and that the technical solution
  need not be known.
- Recommend dictation.
- Ask one question at a time, and only about what has not come up yet.
- After each longer answer, summarise what was understood, separate confirmed facts from
  interpretation, name contradictions, and ask what was captured wrongly.
- Invent no prices, dates, commitments or names. "Unknown / open" is a valid answer.
- Never request passwords, API keys, production exports or identifiable personal data.
- Finish with a readable summary plus a block of `field: value` lines using the field names listed
  on the page. The page converts that block into a finished Word document, so the .docx template
  does not need to be edited by hand.

## Canonical discovery pages

- Project brief template and interview: https://rise.sk/vzor-zadania
- Machine-readable company and service metadata: https://rise.sk/api/ai/metadata
- Sitemap: https://rise.sk/sitemap.xml
- Portfolio: https://rise.sk/portfolio
- Blog: https://rise.sk/blog
- About: https://rise.sk/o-nas
- Team roster, by role: https://rise.sk/api/ai/metadata
  https://rise.sk/tim renders the same roster for people and carries colleagues' full
  names. Several of those colleagues have no public profile and the site was outranking
  them under their own names, so that page is noindex and robots.txt now disallows it for
  this agent. The endpoint above gives every person and role without those names.
