Editorial Guidelines
Originality and value
Every guide must add at least one detail that is not already on the first three search results for its target query — a real tool output, a measured edge case, or a tool-specific caveat. Restating Wikipedia-level summaries does not meet our quality bar.
AI disclosure
Informational guides on this site are AI-assisted and editorially reviewed. Every guide and tool page is bylined to Selim Ataballyev, who reviews it before it goes live and answers for its accuracy; the methodology page describes how the pipeline works. We do not publish guides under fabricated personal credentials. There are no fake expert profiles.
Correction policy
If a tool changes behavior, the guide that documents it is reviewed and the Last reviewed datestamp is updated on the next build. Reader-submitted corrections via the contact page are read by Selim Ataballyev. Corrections that change a factual claim are applied with a brief note in the page's history; corrections that affect a transactional claim (file-size limit, supported format) trigger a guide rewrite, not a quiet edit.
Review cadence
Guides are reviewed when the underlying tool is updated or when reader feedback flags an issue. Every published guide soaks on a preview deployment for at least 48 hours before merging to the live site. Within the first 7 days after publication, neither advertising nor a sponsored placement is rendered on the guide page; this gives the indexing pipeline time to evaluate the page on its content alone. A sponsorship never buys a change to a guide: sponsors write their own card and have no say over the surrounding text, and paid links are labelled and carry rel="sponsored". See Advertise.

- Guides with fabricated aggregate ratings or testimonials.
- Guides under a named human author who did not write the words.
