Source priority
We prefer evidence in this order:
- Official pricing pages and product documentation.
- Official help centers, release notes, and company announcements.
- Direct statements from the provider that can be independently checked.
- Reliable secondary sources only when official wording is incomplete.
Search snippets, copied directory entries, and unsourced social posts are not enough to establish a free allowance or expiration date.
Verification workflow
- Identify the exact claim a visitor needs to understand.
- Check the provider’s current official source and record its address.
- Separate recurring free plans, one-time credits, trials, and deals.
- Record important restrictions and the actual date checked.
- Keep uncertain or conflicting information out of published facts.
- Preserve evidence and review meaningful changes before publication.
Dates, stale information, and expired deals
“Last verified” means a person or verification process checked the actual information—not simply that a page was rebuilt. Listings checked 90 days ago or more receive a stale warning until reviewed again.
Expired promotions are removed from active results or clearly labeled expired. We do not use fake countdowns, artificial scarcity, or “updated today” labels that are unrelated to a real check.
Original editorial value
Listings are not copied marketing blurbs. We summarize what the tool does, who the free offer suits, what can block practical use, and when a competing option may be better. We avoid publishing large numbers of thin pages solely to target search terms.

Corrections
Supported corrections are reviewed against current official evidence. When a material published fact changes, we update the listing and its verified date; uncertain changes remain under review. A public correction channel will be added before launch.
