Transparency beats hype — for us and for you. If you trust a recommendation, we want you to know exactly how we got there.
What "affiliate" means here
Some of the links on AI Creator Hub are affiliate links. If you sign up for a paid plan after clicking one of those links, we may earn a commission from the vendor — at no additional cost to you. We never charge readers for accessing our content.
How we pick tools
- Real use first. We only write detailed reviews for tools we've actually used in a real workflow for at least 30 days.
- Independent comparison. Side-by-side test data — same prompt set, same hardware — by default for tool comparisons.
- Price isn't the ranking factor. A free tool can rank #1. A high-commission plan can rank last if the product is bad.
- Re-test cadence. Major ranked guides are re-tested each quarter. Models and tools move; our rankings move with them.
How affiliate relationships affect — and don't affect — us
Participating in affiliate programs pays for hosting, tool access, and the writers who keep the content updated. It does not buy ranking position, edit conclusions, or suppress criticism.
- We mark affiliate links inside articles with a small Affiliate badge or the disclosure box above.
- If we receive a free license or paid placement, the article clearly says so near the top.
- We update or retract reviews when a vendor changes pricing, terms, or product direction in ways that affect the original verdict.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why don't all links have the badge?
Only affiliate links get the badge. Editorial links (external resources we respect) don't earn us a commission and don't need the marker.
Do you accept sponsored posts?
Yes, clearly labeled as Sponsored Content. We never let sponsors write the conclusions; final copy and verdicts remain editorial.
How do I report a bad recommendation?
Email editorial@vic999.com with the article URL and a description of the issue. We respond within 5 business days.
