About MediaPavilion

What is MediaPavilion?

MediaPavilion is an AI-powered media platform that never switches off. Global news, sport, practical guides and discovery tools sit side by side, all in one place. Our slogan sums it up: Inform. Educate. Empower.

Is MediaPavilion written by AI?

AI does the heavy lifting. People add direction, review and editing, so every story stays clear and readable.

Our Editorial Policy explains how this works. AI tools may help with research, drafting, editing and audio narration, and a human editor reviews, checks and approves every article before publication.

Where do the facts in your articles come from?

Articles end with a Sources section that names each source and its date, so you can check them yourself. If you spot a mistake, our Corrections Policy explains how we put it right.

Does it cost anything to use MediaPavilion?

No. Reading, listening, the finders and the newsletter are all free. The Bookstore sells optional printable planners and workbooks, and it also has a free download.

How do I find a topic?

Open Explore Topics in the menu and choose an area. You can also browse every section on the Explore Topics page. Each area has its own hub, with the latest stories, sub-topics and featured stories.

How do I search?

Tap the search icon at the top of any page and start typing. Matching stories are suggested as you type.

What are Featured Pages?

Featured Pages are the strip of tools near the top of the homepage and every hub. They include a live job search, the Scholarships and Admissions finders, Loans & Grants, a checked list of crypto airdrops and token sales, Live Scores & Fixtures and the Bookstore.

How do the scholarship, admissions and funding finders work?

Each finder lists opportunities from official sources. Type a keyword for suggestions, then filter and sort the results. Every listing links straight to the official page and shows the date MediaPavilion last checked it. Always apply on the official site.

Can I use MediaPavilion on my phone?

Yes. The site adapts to phones and tablets. On a phone, tap the menu icon to reach every topic. You can choose light or dark mode under Appearance.

Listen and Favourites

How does Listen work?

Tap 🔊 Listen on any article and the Voice Reader reads it aloud. You can play or stop, skip back or forward, jump to the previous or next section, or move on to the next article.

How do I save stories with Favourites?

Tap ☆ Save to Favorites on any article. Your saved stories wait for you in My Favorites, ready to read or listen to later.

Favourites are saved in your browser on that device, so there is no account to create. Clearing your browser data removes them.

Can I carry on an article later?

Yes. If you leave an article part-way through, MediaPavilion offers to take you back to where you stopped (Continue Reading) or start over.

What is the daily newsletter?

How do I pay? Is checkout secure?

When do I get my download?

Instantly. Straight after payment, Gumroad shows your download and emails you the link.

What if a file doesn’t work? Can I get a refund?

Our 14-day help guarantee covers you. If a file is faulty, will not open, or is not as described, email us within 14 days with your order number. We will fix it, replace it or refund you in full. We do not refund simply because you changed your mind after downloading, but we will always try to help. See the Store Terms.

UK and EU customers: you normally have 14 days to cancel an online purchase. For digital content, you agree when you buy that the download starts straight away, and this right ends once the download begins. This does not affect the 14-day help guarantee.

Can I share or resell the files?

Each purchase includes a personal licence for you and your household, and you can print as many copies as you need for personal use. Please do not resell, share or upload the files. Teachers and coaches may print copies for their own students or clients. For team, school or commercial licences, email us.
