About the publication

Policy updated

  1. The production process

    The writing is automated: an AI model running locally produces each pricing post. Software links the post's individual claims to the sources listed with it. A second model, provided by another AI company, performs one factual review before publication. No human author, editor or reviewer works on the post.

    This is one AI fact check before publication. It can miss errors and does not guarantee accuracy. There is no promise of continuous monitoring after that check.

  2. Sources you can examine

    Each article lists its sources and the date its documentation was checked. Product behavior should be tied to the vendor help page. Tax or legal statements need a current official source for the relevant jurisdiction. Reading documentation is not hands-on product testing.

  3. Costs and calculations

    Distinguish wages, loaded labor cost, selling rates, markup, gross margin and net profit. State the period, units and costs included. Allocate overhead once. Illustrative prices and hours carry an explicit label; they are not measured shop results.

  4. Limits worth keeping visible

    A vendor profit target is not an industry norm. Conflicting instructions or missing evidence must be stated, not guessed away. Guides do not supply universal tax rates, mandated fees, guaranteed margins or advice to coordinate prices with competitors.

  5. When a claim needs changing

    Use corrections to report a disputed statement with a source. Material changes must identify the affected claim, correction, reason, source and date.
