How we rank

Relevance and live status decide the order. Commission is never an input to it.

  1. Relevance and live status decide order. A tool must be reachable and verified to place at all.
  2. Commission is never an input. Affiliate terms never affect inclusion or a position; a tool with no program is judged identically.
  3. Dead and degrading tools are never recommended - they are tracked, but excluded from the ranking.
  4. Every price and status carries a date and a source. No verdict without evidence.
  5. Vendors have a right to reply before a status is changed or a claim is published.
  6. Structured for machine reading - ItemList, FAQPage and dateModified schema, plus a plain-text mirror at /api/md/.

The full method: how we verify.
