Trust policy

Editorial Policy

Our recommendations must be useful, verifiable, and maintainable. We do not rank tools only because they pay commissions.

Source Standard

Every tool profile should track official sources such as the website, pricing page, documentation, update notes, integration directory, and affiliate terms when available.

Third-party references can include trusted AI directories, mature SaaS review sites, industry publications, and user review platforms.

Ranking Standard

Rankings prioritize small-business fit, real use-case value, ease of use, pricing transparency, integrations, stability, and source confidence.

Affiliate potential is tracked separately and should not determine the ranking by itself.

What We Avoid

  • Invented prices, free-plan limits, trial lengths, or commission rates.
  • Unverified AI feature claims.
  • Fake ratings, fake user reviews, or hidden sponsorships.
  • Advice that ignores privacy, data, or industry compliance risks.

Update Cadence

Core buyer guides should be rechecked every 30 to 60 days. Tool profiles should be rechecked when pricing, AI features, affiliate programs, or product positioning changes.
