Methodology & sources
Brand facts, honestly tiered, nothing invented.
Sources
- Voltage, companion/high-power lines, market positioning, warranty terms and where-sold come from manufacturer information and retail listings.
- Ecosystem size is a consensus tier (massive/large/medium/focused), not an exact tool count — counts change constantly.
- Stated strengths and trade-offs reflect each platform's well-established reputation, not a lab test of our own.
- Product photos and product links come from the Amazon Creators API, refreshed at build time — never scraped.
- The 3-question picker scores platforms only on the documented fields above (positioning, retailer, high-power line, ecosystem tier) — no hidden weighting, no paid placement.
What we never do
- No invented tool counts or specs.
- No sponsored placements. Dated "last verified" on every page.
