The publication takes a neutral editorial stance in its analysis of government, free trade and globalisation as it believes in 'the value of permitting all inoffensive ideologies in informing debate'.[3] The editorial board is composed of alumni of the London School of Economics and is particularly focused on Africa.[4][5]

Stears raised $3.3 million in funding round from MaC Venture Capital, the investment firm of retired tennis star Serena Williams, Melo 7 Tech Partners, Omidyar Group's Laminate Fund and Cascador.[6]
