Our honesty rules
We only state competitor facts we can source from public pricing pages or credible market reports, and we label estimates as estimates. Where a vendor doesn't publish something, we say "not publicly listed" instead of guessing. And every comparison names the cases where the competitor is the better choice — because a comparison that always favors the author isn't a comparison.
