DIY AI Independent Tool Evaluation terms
This service is a provider-funded, independent evaluation of an AI tool. Once DIY AI accepts an evaluation, the one-time fee covers hands-on testing, evidence collection, editorial analysis and publication of the resulting independent review.
Eligibility, access and scope
DIY AI checks category fit, product readiness, safety, access and testability before accepting an evaluation. Products that are inaccessible, unsafe, unlawful, substantially unfinished, outside current categories, obvious duplicates or impossible to compare fairly may be declined. Queue timing is an estimate, not an absolute deadline.
Editorial independence
An accepted paid evaluation guarantees testing and publication of the resulting review. It does not guarantee a positive verdict, score, ranking, recommendation, dataset inclusion or additional coverage. DIY AI retains full editorial control. Providers may correct factual errors during the factual-review window, but have no publication veto and cannot require removal of supported criticism.
Disclosure and supplied access
Provider-funded testing and the source of supplied access or credits may be disclosed in the review. Do not submit passwords, private API keys, customer data or other secrets through checkout. DIY AI will provide a secure route where protected access is required.
Refunds and cancellation
Refund before testing begins only, except where consumer or statutory rights require otherwise.
Intellectual property, data and liability
You confirm that you may provide all materials and access needed for testing. Submission details, correspondence and payment records are handled under the site privacy policy and applicable retention practices. Contact DIY AI using the approved site contact details for correction, deletion or service questions. Legal/business details and governing law must be confirmed by the site owner before launch.
