Read our Corrections & Updates Policy

Companies in our research

Factual updates are welcome. Rankings are not negotiated.

If your company appears in a study, you may submit factual corrections and additional documentation. We evaluate requests based on available evidence. Material changes may be reflected during a future research cycle.

  • Product, pricing, or eligibility changes
  • Updated disclosures or discontinued products
  • Company rebrands
  • Incorrect factual information
  • Significant context we may have overlooked

A company request does not automatically result in

  • A ranking change
  • Removal from the research or removal of a competitor
  • A more favorable fit analysis
  • Changes to historical AI recommendation data

Ranking disputes must identify a data error

  • A platform recommendation was omitted
  • A company name was normalized incorrectly
  • Two products were incorrectly combined
  • A recommendation count was miscalculated

A general statement such as “We think we should rank higher” is not evidence of a research error.

Why your message matters

We want to hear when we're wrong, or when the research raises a better question.

AI systems can be wrong. Financial companies change their products. Our own researchers and reviewers can make mistakes. A useful correction makes the entire dataset more valuable.

Strong future studies often begin with a specific consumer problem that broad comparison articles overlook. We welcome suggestions for situations or categories that deserve testing.

Make it easy to report errors, ask questions, challenge the research with evidence, and discuss legitimate commercial opportunities while keeping commercial relationships separate from research results.
