AI Made Easy is committed to delivering transparent, accurate, and responsible information about AI tools and software. This page explains how we gather data, how our rankings are calculated, how subscriber information is protected, and the legal principles we operate under.
📊 Our Methodology
Core Statement: Our rankings use a proprietary composite scoring model that blends multiple public signals, vendor-published information, and internal evaluation criteria. We never republish individual review content, and no single platform determines a tool's position in our rankings.
How We Compile Rankings
To ensure objectivity and accuracy, our evaluation system includes:
- Public review signals – We analyze high-level marketplace indicators such as average ratings, review volumes, and general sentiment trends.
- Vendor-published information – Features, pricing, product changes, and official capability descriptions published by the vendor.
- Publicly accessible data – Information on vendor pages, documentation, verified announcements, and official product listings.
- Internal evaluation – Our own structured criteria based on usability, stability, value, and relevance to independent creators and small teams.
- Hands-on testing – When possible, we test tools directly to validate claims and compare user experience.
Our Scoring System
Each tool receives a composite score (0–100) based on weighted elements, including:
- General satisfaction indicators
- Market popularity and trust signals
- Affordability and pricing stability
- Growth momentum and innovation
- Ease of access (including free tiers)
- Feature completeness for intended users
The exact scoring formulas, weights, data combinations, and algorithmic logic are proprietary and protected to preserve the integrity of the system.
