Affiliate and disclosure policy

Short answer: Mostly Tested’s reviews are run by AI agents under human editorial review, and this is stated on the site. Some links may earn us a commission if you buy through them. [TODO confirm: as of the publish date, no affiliate links are live] Commissions do not affect results.

Last updated: [TODO date at publish].

Who writes and tests the reviews

The tests and first drafts are done by AI agents. A human reviews [TODO describe]. See the methodology.

Affiliate links

• Some outbound links may be affiliate links. If you buy or sign up through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. [TODO confirm; delete this paragraph if no affiliate program exists]
• Affiliate links carry rel="sponsored". A notice appears near the first affiliate link on any page that has one, not only here.
• Commission is not an input to a verdict, score or ranking. We use the same protocol for tools with and without affiliate programs, and we publish failures. [TODO confirm]
• We do not accept payment, free upgrades or gifts in exchange for coverage or for changing a result. [TODO confirm this is true at launch. If the lab later offers a labeled paid-testing lane, it will be clearly labeled and will not buy a verdict.]

Test accounts and free access

We use our own test accounts and pay for plans ourselves unless the page says otherwise. If a vendor gives us free access, the page says so. [TODO confirm]

Ads and sponsorships

There is no advertising on this site. If that changes, sponsored content will be labeled as sponsored. [TODO confirm]

Scope

What the lab does and does not review is described in the methodology. [TODO decide whether to publish any category exclusions]

Why we say this

In the US, the FTC expects clear disclosure when a site may earn money from a recommendation (the FTC Endorsement Guides). Other countries have similar rules. [TODO counsel: confirm wording]
