Our Review Methodology
Our Honest Affiliate Research Process
Full Transparency: Vetted AI Tools is an affiliate marketing website. We earn commissions when you purchase tools through our links. However, this never influences our honest assessments—we openly recommend competitor alternatives when they're a better fit.
Each review is based on 45-60 minutes of hands-on testing (using free tiers or trial periods), analysis of 200+ verified user reviews from G2, Trustpilot, and Reddit, and side-by-side competitor comparisons. We use AI (Gemini 2.0) to assist with research synthesis and content drafting, but every claim is validated through our testing or cited from verified sources.
What We're NOT:
- • We're not doing 6-month deep-dives or enterprise deployments
- • We're not Consumer Reports or professional testing labs
