Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: January 1, 2025

How We Earn Revenue

AI Tools Review is an independently operated website. To keep the site running and our reviews free to read, we participate in affiliate programs offered by some of the tools we review. When you click on certain links on our site and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may receive a commission from the vendor at no additional cost to you.

Editorial Independence

Affiliate partnerships never influence our editorial content. Our review methodology, ratings, and recommendations are determined solely by our editorial team based on hands-on testing. We maintain a strict separation between our editorial and commercial operations.

Here is what this means in practice:

  • We have published critical reviews of tools that offer affiliate commissions.
  • We have recommended tools that do not have an affiliate program.
  • Affiliate commission rates do not affect a tool's rating or ranking in our content.
  • Tool vendors cannot pay for a positive review or higher rating.

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, we disclose affiliate relationships in the following ways:

  • A visible disclosure notice appears at the top of every article that contains affiliate links.
  • Affiliate links are tagged with appropriate rel attributes (nofollow, sponsored) for search engine compliance.
  • This dedicated disclosure page explains our affiliate relationships in detail.

Advertising

In addition to affiliate income, we display advertisements through Google AdSense. These ads are served by Google and are clearly distinguishable from our editorial content. We do not accept sponsored posts or paid placements disguised as editorial content.

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Affiliate links on our site are typically presented as prominent call-to-action buttons (e.g., "Try Tool Name" or "Visit Website"). Clicking these links takes you to the vendor's website, and if you sign up or purchase, we may earn a commission. You are never charged extra for using our affiliate links.

Your Trust Matters

We understand that trust is earned. If you ever feel that one of our reviews is biased or inaccurate, we encourage you to reach out to us. We take reader feedback seriously and will re-evaluate any review if presented with evidence that our assessment is incorrect.
