How every number gets here

No hand-written advertorials. Every figure is sourced, decoded, and re-checked.

01Source

We pull pricing straight from each vendor's live page and stamp it with the date we checked. Anything volatile is flagged verify live instead of asserted.

96 source links across 36 tools

02Decode

Credits, operations, executions, per-resolution meters, we translate each pricing model into plain math, and surface the one gotcha buyers miss.

133 pricing tiers, every one broken down

03Verify

Every tool is scored on a fixed, published rubric applied identically to all of them. Affiliate status carries zero weight in the score.
