How we check facts

Every guide on AI Start Compass follows the same checks before it goes live, and again whenever a tool changes.

How we check facts

  • Prices, plans and features come from the company’s own pricing pages, help centre or official announcements.
  • Every guide shows the date we last checked those sources.
  • We link to the sources we used at the end of each article.
  • We don’t publish exact usage limits unless the company itself publishes them.

How we use AI

We use AI writing assistants to help research and draft articles. A person then checks every fact against the official sources and edits the article before it is published. We say this on each article.

Corrections and updates

AI tools change often. We recheck our guides regularly and update the date when we do. If you spot something out of date or wrong, please tell us and we’ll fix it.

Money and independence

AI Start Compass is independent and not affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or any other AI company. No company pays to be included or ranked. If we add affiliate links in future, we’ll label them clearly.
