Editorial Policy

Last Updated: January 15, 2025

Our Mission

At crush-on-ai.com, our mission is to provide honest, comprehensive, and useful reviews of AI chat and companion platforms. We help users make informed decisions by testing platforms ourselves and reporting our findings without bias or hidden agendas.

Core Principles

Hands-On Testing

Every platform we review is personally tested by our editorial team. We create accounts, use features, and evaluate performance firsthand before publishing any review.

Editorial Independence

Our reviews are independent of advertising relationships. Affiliate partnerships do not influence our ratings, rankings, or recommendations.

Transparent Ratings

We use a consistent 5-star rating system based on clear criteria. Every rating is explained and justified in our reviews.

Regular Updates

AI platforms change rapidly. We regularly re-test and update our reviews to ensure information remains accurate and current.

Rating Methodology

Our ratings are calculated using a weighted scoring system based on the following criteria:
