Editorial Process & Use of AI

All curricula, tables of contents, layouts, essays, and core explanations on AccountingExamsMastery.ca are planned and written by humans. The editorial team behind MasteryExamPrep.com designs the learning path, drafts key sections, and reviews every article before it goes live.

  • Human-led content: Topic selection, structure, and main explanations are created and curated by human subject-matter experts with Canadian and IFRS experience.
  • AI-assisted workflow: We use AI tools to help with consistent styling and tone, to generate draft quizzes and practice questions, to prototype diagrams, and to suggest alternative phrasings for difficult concepts.
  • Formula and calculation checks: Numbers, formulas, and calculations are reviewed by humans and supported by automated checks to catch internal inconsistencies and edge cases.
  • Advanced, proprietary tooling: Tokenizer Inc. uses proprietary research workflows and internal tools to monitor changes in CPA Canada guidance, IFRS/ASPE standards, and Canadian tax rules so we can update content efficiently.
  • Continuous improvement: When blueprints, standards, or legislation change, we revise affected pages and, where practical, highlight material updates.

In Amazon KDP terms, our books and guides are “AI-assisted,” not “AI-generated”: AI supports drafting, checking, and consistency, but humans remain responsible for what you read. If you spot an error, ambiguity, or missing example, please reach out—reader feedback directly shapes our next round of edits.
