How we write these guides
Last updated 2026-06-02.
Solvir Tools publishes independent, ad-supported product guides. Here is how we choose tools, where our information comes from, and what we will not do.
How we choose tools
We cover tools that are in active use by independent DTC and Shopify operators. The shortlist is built from operator interviews, agency recommendations, and our own work — not vendor pitches. We add a tool when at least three independent operators rely on it, or when a tool meaningfully changes how a category works.
Where our information comes from
Every claim about features, pricing, and limits comes from vendor product pages, official changelogs, the vendor’s own pricing page (date-stamped per guide), G2 / Capterra third-party pages, and public operator discussions on Reddit, indie forums, and conference recordings. We mark the source date for each price; vendors change tiers regularly.
When we update
Guides are reviewed when pricing changes, when a vendor ships a category-shifting feature, or quarterly — whichever comes first. The “Last updated” date in each guide reflects the most recent fact-check pass, not minor copy edits.
What we will not do
We do not assign numeric scores to tools. We do not accept sponsored placement. We do not change a guide in exchange for higher affiliate rates. We do not hide critical observations because a vendor pays a commission. Editorial decisions and affiliate decisions are made separately and documented internally.
