Editorial best-of rankings and comparison verdicts are not for sale. Vendors can pay only for a clearly labeled Featured slot in directory listings.
Last updated April 27, 2026 · Every fact traceable to a public source
This site is an independent editorial directory. We do not accept affiliate commissions on vendor links and editorial best-of rankings cannot be bought. Two paid products exist (Verified and Featured), both clearly labeled, neither of which influences editorial rankings or comparison verdicts.
Two things: (1) Verified — confirms a vendor has formally attested their profile details are accurate, adds a Verified badge, and grants priority handling for corrections. Nothing more. (2) Featured — boosts placement in directory listings (vendor index, comparison pages, alternatives, category pages, the homepage "Recently checked" module). Featured slots are always clearly labeled with a Featured badge.
Editorial best-of rankings, head-to-head comparison verdicts, written commentary, the verification methodology, and the order of vendors in any "Best of" list. We do not run sponsored case studies. We do not accept vendor-drafted profile copy. We do not accept affiliate commissions on outbound vendor links — every "Visit site" link is a plain redirect with UTM only for our own analytics.
Every claim on a vendor profile links to a public primary source: the vendor’s own product page, an accredited-audit certificate, a regulator filing, an investor disclosure, or an independent reviewer. We run an automated fact-check pipeline on every new submission that resolves URLs, cross-references the claim against the vendor’s own site, and assigns a confidence score. Submissions below the threshold are hand-reviewed or rejected with reasons.
Use the correction link on any vendor page or the [submit form](/submit-vendor). Corrections are processed by the editorial team and logged in our audit log. If a vendor claim cannot be verified against a public source within a reasonable window, the claim is removed.
The site is operated by an independent editor. We are not affiliated with any AI vendor, audit firm, or regulator. We do not take vendor investment. See [the about page](/about) for the latest independence statement.
This FAQ is editorial. No vendor can pay to be highlighted or ranked in answers, and the written commentary on this page is payment-free. Featured slots in directory listings are always labeled where they appear. Read our methodology for details.
