Frequently Asked Questions

How we review AI tools, how ratings work, and how we make money.

How do you choose which tools to feature?

We focus on a small set of categories — AI writing tools, image generators, coding assistants, and video generators — and feature the tools that real users actually reach for today. We prioritize well-known, actively maintained products with meaningful adoption, and we favor tools we can describe honestly based on everyday use rather than marketing claims.

Do you receive compensation for these recommendations?

Yes, some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you when you sign up or make a purchase through them. Our comparisons and ratings are written independently of any affiliate relationship, and a commission never decides whether a tool is recommended.

How are tools rated?

We rate tools on a straightforward scale that weighs ease of use, output quality, and value for money. Ratings are a starting point, not a verdict: which tool is best for you depends on your budget, your workflow, and the specific job you need done, so we always pair a rating with a detailed written review.

Is the pricing information accurate?

Pricing in the AI tools market changes frequently, and plans, limits, and free tiers shift often. We always describe pricing in general terms and flag specific figures for verification before publication. We recommend confirming the current price and plan details on the official website before you commit to anything.

How do you keep your reviews up to date?

We review and refresh our comparison pages on a rolling basis, prioritizing tools whose features or pricing have recently changed. Because this space moves fast, we deliberately avoid asserting precise feature lists and dollar figures as fixed facts — you should always check the tool's official site for the latest capabilities.

Can I suggest a tool to add?

We keep our scope intentionally tight so every review stays genuinely useful, but we're always evaluating the tools people actually use. If a widely adopted tool is missing from a category, it's likely on our radar for a future update.
