How We Make Money

Last updated: September 26, 2026

AI Suggestions is free to use. We pay for it by earning commissions on some of the tools we recommend.

How it works

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and sign up for a paid plan, the company may pay us a commission. You pay the same price either way. Sometimes our link even gets you a discount the company offers only through partners, and when it does, we say so.

We join affiliate programs through networks like PartnerStack and Impact, and sometimes directly with the company that makes the tool.

What commissions never change

We score every tool the same way, whether it pays us or not. That covers:

  • Scores. A tool's Verdict score comes from our testing. A commission can't raise it.
  • Rankings. A tool's position in a list is set by its score and how well it fits that use case, not by what it pays.
  • Skip verdicts. If a tool scores below 6.0, we tell you to skip it, even if it has an affiliate program.
  • What gets reviewed. We choose which tools to cover. Companies can't pay to be included.

Some of the tools we rate highest don't pay us anything, because they don't offer affiliate programs. We recommend them anyway.

What we don't sell

AI Suggestions doesn't sell sponsored reviews, paid listings, featured placements or "verified" badges. No company can pay to appear on the site or to move up a list. If that ever changes, paid placements will be clearly labeled as sponsored and kept separate from our scores.

How to spot an affiliate link

Affiliate links on this site go through an address that looks like aisuggestions.co/go/toolname. You'll also see a short note near the first link on any page that has them.

Questions

If you want to know whether we earn from a specific tool, email us at [email protected] and we’ll tell you. For how we handle cookies and data from these links, see our Privacy Policy. If you’re a company with a question about affiliate programs, contact [email protected]. Joining a program doesn’t change how we review or score your tool.
