TalkEditorial policy and method
How Talk AI Tools decides what to cover, how pages are researched, and what we will never do.
Editorial standards
Essays make arguments and cite evidence: documentation, pricing, published research, verified user reports. Quotations are sourced. Opinions are labelled as opinions. We publish substantive corrections at the top of the piece.
Independence
No essay is commissioned, reviewed or approved by a vendor. Affiliate links, where present, are marked and added after editing.
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.
