AIEditorial policy and method
How AI Souk decides what to cover, how pages are researched, and what we will never do.
What "walkthrough" means here
We create a free account (or start a free trial), follow the vendor’s own onboarding, and capture screenshots with our own tooling. Each page states the tier used and the capture date. If a tool offers no free tier and no trial, the page is labelled a documentation review and no first-hand claims are made.
What we rate
Time to first useful output, clarity of limits on the free tier, upgrade pressure, and whether the documentation matches what the product does.
What we never do
- Sell a ranking, a score, a placement or a positive sentence.
- Claim personal testing we did not perform.
- Publish numbers without a source and a date.
- Let a commission rate decide coverage.
- Use invented reviewers, invented testimonials or stock "customer" quotes.
Frequently asked
Do you personally use every product you cover?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. Where a page is based on first-hand use it says so, with the plan and the dates. Otherwise it is built from documentation, pricing history and verified user reports, and it says that too.
Can a vendor pay to be included or to improve a score?
No. Vendors can send corrections with sources, which we check like any other evidence.
How often are pages updated?
Prices and features are re-checked on a schedule and each page shows its last-checked date. Readers’ corrections are handled as they arrive.
