These guidelines explain how iTechLeez researches, writes, tests and maintains its content. They apply to every guide, roundup, review and comparison we publish. Our goal is simple: give you accurate, genuinely useful advice you can act on, and be transparent about how we arrived at it.
Hands-on research
We write from direct experience with the tools we cover. For a how-to, we perform each step in the current version of the product before publishing. For roundups and comparisons, we use the tools on representative tasks rather than summarizing marketing pages, and we note where our experience is limited.
How we evaluate AI tools
When we recommend or compare tools, we weigh the factors that affect real users:
- Output quality — how good and reliable the results are for the intended task.
- Ease of use — how quickly a non-expert can get a useful result.
- Free tier and pricing shape — what you can do without paying, and how paid plans are structured.
- Privacy and data handling — what happens to the content you put in.
- Platform support — web, mobile, integrations and offline options.
Accuracy and sourcing
We never fabricate prices, version numbers, benchmarks, quotes or statistics. Fast-changing details (such as exact prices and model names) are described in general terms with a pointer to the official source for the current figure. We link to primary sources — official documentation, release notes and pricing pages — wherever possible.
Freshness and updates
Every article shows a publish or updated date. Because AI tools change quickly, we revisit popular guides and update them when a change affects our advice. An “Updated” date reflects a substantive review, not a cosmetic edit.
Use of AI in our workflow
We may use AI tools to assist with research, drafting and editing — it would be odd for an AI-tools publication not to. Every article is reviewed and fact-checked by a human before publishing, and we are responsible for everything we publish. AI is a tool in our process, not a replacement for judgment or testing.
Independence and disclosure
iTechLeez is editorially independent and not affiliated with any AI company. Tool names and trademarks belong to their owners. If an article ever contains an affiliate link, we disclose it, and it never influences our verdict or rankings.
Corrections
If you spot an error, email [email protected] with the article link and the correction. We review correction requests promptly and update the article where warranted.
