How we verify
What "verified" means here
A short, plain account of how the data on this site was gathered, and what it does not tell you.
What we did
- For each tool we looked for the vendor's own pricing and help pages and read the plan names, prices and limits they show.
- We recorded the page address and the date we read it next to every tool. Today that date is 9 Nov 2026.
- We wrote the descriptions ourselves, in our own words.
- Prices are in US dollars, before tax. Vendors may show other prices in other countries.
The four labels
Every tool carries one of these. Each has an icon and a word, so colour is never the only signal.
- VerifiedPrice and plan details were read on the vendor's own pages, match across them, and link to their sources.
- StaleWas verified, but not re-read for more than 30 days. Prices may have changed.
- UnverifiedSome prices were found but could not be confirmed, or the vendor's pages disagree.
- UnknownWe could not find a usable price. We show "Price not verified" instead of guessing.
Behind the labels we also keep a plain note. For example "Sources disagree" means two official pages from the same vendor show different numbers; we show what each says. "Partly checked" means some numbers come only from a vendor blog or guide page, or some prices were not found.
Last checked and last verified
- Last verified is shown only when the data passed the checks above.
- Last checked is the day we read the vendor's pages, even if we could not confirm everything.
- If a verified tool has not been re-read for more than 30 days it turns Stale automatically when the site is rebuilt.
- If we cannot confirm a price we show "Price not verified". We never guess.
Free, Freemium, Paid, Pricing unknown
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Free | A free plan exists and no paid plan is recorded. |
| Freemium | A free plan exists and at least one paid plan is recorded. |
| Paid | No free plan. At least one paid price is recorded. |
| Pricing unknown | We could not find a usable price. |
A time-limited trial is not a free plan. We do not call a tool free because it has a trial.
What we did not do
- We did not sign in, buy a plan or test any tool. "Verified" is about prices and limits, not quality.
- A second person did not review the data. Mistakes are possible.
- Vendor pages change. If a page changed after 9 Nov 2026, this site is out of date until we check again.
- Price history started on 9 Nov 2026. Earlier changes are not recorded. See price changes.
