AIToolVersus compares everyday AI tools for readers who want a straight answer before they spend money. This page explains where our information comes from, how a verdict is reached, and what we do not do.
Where the information comes from
Every article is researched against primary sources: the vendor's pricing, help and policy pages, the US Copyright Office, and published research from the companies that build the models. When an article relies on a price, a limit, a specification or a rule, the page it came from is listed under Sources at the end of that article, with the date we checked it. If we cannot confirm a figure on an official page, we leave it out rather than estimate it.
How a verdict is reached
Verdicts are framed by situation, not by a single "best" product. We start from the reader's constraints, such as budget, team size, floor type or account balance, and compare the options on the points that change the decision for that situation: what each option costs over time, what the free or entry tier leaves out, and what is hard to undo later. Where two options are close, the article says so.
What we do not do
We do not run hands-on lab tests, and we do not publish first-person testing claims. Articles are written with AI assistance and reviewed before publication by Jay Lim, who runs the site. We do not accept payment for a verdict or for placement in a comparison.
Keeping articles current
Prices and plans change. We re-check articles against the official pages and update the date shown at the top of each article when we do. The byline date is the most recent date a source in that article was checked.
Recent corrections
- Added current plan limits and prices from vendor pages across 64 articles, and removed figures we could not confirm (September 2026).
