AI Usage Policy

BuySmarter uses AI responsibly while preserving human editorial accountability for every recommendation.

How AI May Assist

AI may assist with research organization, draft generation, editing, grammar, formatting, comparison tables, outlines, and quality checks.

Human Review Is Required

Human editorial review is always required before publication. Recommendations are never generated solely by AI.

Human-Reviewed Frameworks

Decision Matrix™, Confidence Scores™, Decision Receipts™, and BuySmarter Verdict™ are human-reviewed before publication.

AI Is Not a Primary Source

AI output is not treated as a primary source. Important claims should be checked against product pages, documentation, pricing pages, policy pages, or other credible evidence.

Editorial Accountability

BuySmarter is responsible for what it publishes. AI may support the workflow, but people remain accountable for editorial judgment.
