Every tool we review is tested against real use cases: customer support deflection, internal document Q&A, and multi-channel agent deployment. We do not accept payment for placement. Our scores are based on setup time, retrieval accuracy, pricing transparency, and long-term ownership cost.
What we test
- Setup speed from purchase to first deployed bot
- Retrieval accuracy on domain-specific document corpora
- Latency under realistic query loads
- Pricing model transparency and total cost of ownership
- Data privacy and self-hosting options
What we do not do
- Accept sponsored placements or paid reviews
- Rank tools based on affiliate commission rates
- Test tools only in ideal lab conditions
- Recommend tools we have not personally deployed
