Nothing here can be bought

Most tool directories monetize the listing itself — paid placement, paid “verified” badges, bid-ranked positions, or analyst access economies. This site is built on the opposite premise: the data is the product, and its value depends on no one being able to influence it. This page is the standing policy that makes that checkable.

The no-pay-to-play policy

  • No listing fees. No product has ever paid to be listed, and none can.
  • No sponsored placement or ranking. Position on any page is determined by data and written rules, never by spend.
  • No paid badges or “verified” programs. A verification date on a record reflects our review, not a vendor purchase.
  • No advertising, no affiliate links, no referral revenue from any listed vendor.
  • No vendor influence on verdicts. When editorial assessments ship, they will carry a dated rationale and the same no-vendor-influence rule.

How the project is funded and run

enterpriseai.tools is an open-source project (MIT-licensed, public repository) maintained by Tiberiu Arva and run on static hosting at negligible cost. There is no revenue model: no subscriptions, no ads, no paid tiers, no sponsored content. That independence is deliberate — it removes every channel through which a vendor could pay to shape the data.

Zero tracking

  • No analytics and no tracking scripts — we cannot see who you are, and we do not want to.
  • No cookies, no email capture, no lead funnel. Subscribing means RSS/Atom or the calendar feed, which identify nobody.
  • No runtime third-party requests: pages are static files, and nothing phones home when you read them.

Corrections: resolved by sources, not by spend

  1. Open a public issue in the repository naming the record, the field, the value you believe is wrong, and the primary source that supports the correction.
  2. Corrections are resolved by comparing sources, in public, in the issue thread — never by who is asking or what they spend.
  3. License corrections follow a stricter path: the upstream LICENSE file is re-read and the record changes only after verification, with the change logged in the public feed.
  4. Vendors are welcome to correct facts about their own products this way. Facts can be corrected; position cannot be bought.

Accountability

The dataset is edited by a named maintainer — Tiberiu Arva — through a regulated-enterprise delivery lens, and every edit is attributable in the public git history. If this policy is ever violated, the evidence would be public; that is intentional.
