Editorial
Review Methodology
Every review on Solvir Tools carries one of three labels so you know exactly what kind of evidence backs it. We score on a consistent rubric and refresh both scores and prices on a fixed cadence.
Labels
The three review labels
Tested by us
We bought or trialed the tool, used it on a real store for a documented period, captured screenshots ourselves, and recorded the test plan. The 'lastTestedAt' and 'testedBy' fields are populated on every Tested review.
Editorial review
We reviewed the tool from official documentation, third-party reviews, and operator interviews — but did not run a paid hands-on test ourselves. Editorial reviews must cite public evidence sources. Vendor screenshots may be used and are labelled as such.
AI-assisted
AI tools helped with drafting and research. A human editor fact-checked every claim, verified every price, and edited the final text. AI never assigns ratings, never generates screenshots, and never publishes without a human pass.
Scoring rubric
Tools are rated on five dimensions: features, pricing, ease of use, integrations, and support. Each dimension is scored 1-5 and the published rating is a weighted average tuned per category (e.g., support weights higher for tools used by small teams without internal IT).
Pricing freshness
Every review shows when pricing was last verified. We refresh pricing quarterly and within 7 days of a known vendor pricing change. Pricing older than 90 days raises a build warning internally before we publish.
Update cadence
Tested reviews are re-tested at least once a year. Editorial reviews are fact-checked quarterly. We add a visible 'updated' date to every page and log substantive content changes in our internal review log.
