Editorial policy
Creative Asset Lab exists to help readers make better buying decisions. Revenue supports the work but does not control the verdict.
Last updated: 29 August 2026Editorial independence
Commission rate, commercial relationship, or product popularity does not determine ranking. Products can receive a negative or conditional verdict even when an affiliate relationship exists.
Testing language
We use “tested” only when we can retain test notes or artifacts. Supplied access, purchased access, demo review, and desk research are disclosed separately.
Sources and corrections
Volatile claims are checked against current product or marketplace sources. Material corrections are recorded in the page change log rather than silently hidden.
Automated publishing
Our publishing system can research, draft, validate, illustrate, and publish an article automatically. Automated articles must cite current web sources, distinguish sourced claims from editorial judgment, disclose generated visuals, and pass the same structural and evidence checks before publication.
What automation cannot claim
Automation cannot describe a product as hands-on tested unless retained test evidence exists. It cannot invent prices, ratings, sales, compatibility, screenshots, support outcomes, or personal experience. A failed evidence or citation check blocks publication and is recorded in the operating dashboard.
