Affiliate links and disclosure
Some outbound links may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you. They carry an Affiliate badge and never influence rankings, reviews or votes.
Some outbound links on AI Launch Zone are affiliate links. If you sign up or buy after following one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions never influence rankings, reviews or votes.
That is the short version. Here is what it means in practice.
What an affiliate link is
An affiliate link is a link to an AI tool's website that tells the maker your visit came from AI Launch Zone. If you start a paid plan or make a purchase after following it, the maker, or an affiliate network working with the maker, may pay us a commission. Your price is the same as if you had gone to the tool's site directly.
How to spot one
- Affiliate links are marked with an Affiliate badge.
- They can appear on tool pages, deals and comparison pages.
- Members may not post their own affiliate or referral links anywhere on the site, including tool submissions, reviews, forum posts and the feed.
What commissions never change
- The price you pay.
- Reviews and ratings.
- Upvotes, and community-ranked lists such as Top rated, Most upvoted and Trending.
- Moderation decisions, including which reviews and posts stay up.
A tool with an affiliate link and a tool without one are ranked by exactly the same community activity.
Paid plans are separate
Makers can also pay for plans that add owner tools and labeled visibility, such as Featured slots and the homepage Sponsored spotlight. Every paid slot is labeled, and no plan changes a review, a rating, an upvote count or a community ranking. See plans for AI makers.
Verified is not an endorsement
A Verified badge only means our team confirmed who runs a product. It is not a recommendation, and it has nothing to do with whether a tool pays us a commission. Read how verified ownership works.
Cookies and tracking
When you follow an affiliate link, the maker or an affiliate network may use a cookie or similar technology to record that your visit came from us. You can manage cookies in your browser settings. Our privacy policy has more detail.
Why we tell you this
You should know how a site earns money before you trust what it shows you. Affiliate commissions and clearly labeled plans keep AI Launch Zone free to use, while members stay in charge of reviews and rankings.
