Editorial Methodology

How we build
every recommendation

A consistent four-stage process applied to every guide we publish — from category-leading healthcare providers to enterprise software platforms.

  1. Define the research question

    Before we test anything, we identify what actually matters to real decision-makers — not just specs. We survey the category, map the competitive landscape, and define the criteria framework that will drive our evaluation.

  2. Structured analysis & testing

    Our researchers evaluate each option against the defined criteria using a consistent scoring rubric. Where possible, products are tested directly. Where testing isn't feasible, we draw on verified expert interviews, peer-reviewed data, and primary source documentation.

  3. Side-by-side comparison

    We run head-to-head comparisons across every major dimension — performance, cost, usability, transparency, and risk. This produces a scoring matrix that forms the factual backbone of every recommendation we publish.

  4. Editorial review & publication

    Before any guide is published, it passes editorial review for factual accuracy, methodological rigour, and clarity of disclosure. We publish our scoring criteria alongside every recommendation so you can evaluate our reasoning — not just our conclusion.
