Editorial Policy
This page explains how CreatorSprout makes editorial decisions, how money does (and does not) influence coverage, and how we use AI in our own workflow.
Independence
Reviews, comparisons and rankings on CreatorSprout are editorial decisions. No company can pay for coverage, placement, or a better verdict. If we say a tool is not worth it, that stands regardless of any commercial relationship.
Affiliate links
Some articles contain affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships never change a verdict, a ranking, or which tools we cover — and when an article has no affiliate links, we say so in the article. Full details are in our Affiliate Disclosure.
How we use AI
CreatorSprout covers AI tools, and we use them ourselves: AI assists with research organisation, outlining and first drafts in parts of our workflow. Every fact, price and claim is checked against the maker's own site or reputable reporting before publishing. Illustrations generated with AI are labelled as created for the article. We never publish AI-generated "reviews" of products nobody on the team has evaluated, and we never fabricate testimonials, quotes or statistics.
Accuracy and updates
- Prices and features are verified at the time of writing and dated in the article ("Updated: Month Year")
- Rumours are labelled as rumours; announced-but-unshipped features are labelled as promised, not available
- When facts change materially, we update the article and its date line
- Verified errors are corrected promptly — see How We Test for the corrections process
