Primary evidence first
Provider pricing pages, service catalogs, product documentation, public policies, and platform announcements take priority over listicles and unattributed claims.
Trust comes from showing
how the judgment was made.
Our job is to help buyers find a suitable route while keeping the evidence, missing data, service boundaries, and publisher relationship visible.
01
Editorial promise
Commercial interest must be disclosed and constrained.
We apply the same fields to publisher projects and independent providers, limit conclusions to comparable evidence, and correct the record when an official source changes.
Compare the same job
We separate platform, action, quantity, buying model, billing period, delivery method, and protection terms before evaluating price.
Uncertainty stays visible
Grade A means the material field is supported by a current primary source. Grade B means the core product is sourced but a comparison field remains incomplete.
Research Score · v1.0
One score for decision readiness—not a disguised quality claim.
The 100-point Research Score measures how much usable public evidence is available before purchase. The same formula applies to every provider. Publisher ownership is not an input.
Fit Score is separate: it measures how closely a buying model matches a user’s selected brief. Tested Performance will remain unavailable until controlled orders and longitudinal retention checks exist.
Price disclosure
Whether a numeric public price, unit, billing basis, and buying route are visible.
Evidence coverage
How completely current provider-controlled sources support the material profile fields.
Terms visibility
Whether buying, delivery, refill, refund, payment, or order terms can be checked publicly.
Coverage clarity
Whether supported platforms and task categories are defined clearly enough to match a brief.
Operational visibility
Whether the billing model, API status, and operating documentation are visible.
Freshness
How recently the evidence record was reviewed against its primary source.
Performance scores require testing
Published prices, API documentation, or vendor claims cannot establish delivery consistency, retention, refill execution, support quality, or account safety. We do not publish a stability or performance score until a controlled protocol measures those outcomes.
GEO starts with ordinary SEO
Google says AI Overviews and AI Mode use the same search foundations: crawlable, indexable, useful pages with important facts visible as text. There is no separate eligibility shortcut.
Machine files are navigation aids
Structured data must match visible content, but Google does not require special AI schema, content chunking, or an llms.txt file. Our machine-readable resources make research easier to inspect; they do not claim ranking or citation benefit.
Automation supports the desk
Automation may help locate sources, compare fields, check arithmetic, and edit structure. We publish only claims that can be traced to visible evidence, keep uncertainty explicit, and do not turn feeds or competitor pages into lightly rewritten reports.
Read Google’s current AI Search guidancePublication standard
A comparison appears only when:
01The provider or service is currently accessible to the public.02The buying model and exact social action are identified before price comparison.03A provider-controlled source supports each material product or pricing claim.04Billing cadence, quantity, currency, fees, and protection terms are recorded when visible.05Unknown fields remain unknown; they are not filled from promotional language.06Publisher ownership, sponsorship, and referral relationships are stated where relevant.
Ownership disclosure
One disclosure, one scoring standard.
Social Growth Index is affiliated with some listed providers. The affiliated projects are Avola, RealJoin, ChuhaiLens, SMMRoute, and CrowdLume. Every provider is evaluated under the same published scoring standard.
Corrections
Facts change. Our conclusion must change with them.
Material price, policy, availability, or feature changes receive a new verification date. If a change alters the comparison outcome, the affected page is updated rather than leaving an outdated ranking in place.
Request a correction
Providers can submit the current public source and effective date. We verify the source before changing the record.
