Research and comparison methodology

How we think about source-backed research outputs and how we write alternative pages without inventing competitor negatives.

Research outputs

ResearchAO runs deep research against public web sources and returns structured reports with citations. Effort levels trade depth for credits. Outputs can still be wrong, incomplete, or outdated — always open sources and apply judgment.

Comparison pages

  • Competitor claims come from competitor-facts entries with official sources and a last-verified date
  • Unknown or unconfirmed capabilities are labeled “Not publicly confirmed” — never invented as “No”
  • Category distinctions matter (e.g. frontier model vs research platform)
  • Trademark owners are noted; we do not claim affiliation

Updates

Facts should be re-checked periodically. Stale claims may be hidden from display rather than shown as definitive negatives. See editorial policy.
