Transparency & Monetization Disclosure

Last updated

How AI Mower News is funded.

Our Core Commitment

We do not sell the mowers we write about.

AI Mower News does not receive commissions from product sales. Articles are written by AI as summaries of other publishers' reports. No manufacturer has paid for an article or a rating.

This page explains every way we generate revenue, so you can judge for yourself whether there is a conflict of interest.

Revenue Streams

1. Dealer Directory Subscriptions

Our dealer directory connects consumers with local robotic mower dealers and service providers. The directory operates on a tiered model:

  • Free Tier: Available to all dealers. Includes a basic listing with contact information, service area, and brand affiliations.
  • Premium Tier: Paid subscription that provides enhanced visibility, featured placement, verified badges, and expanded profile content.

Dealer subscriptions are a directory service — they provide visibility to consumers looking for local support. They do not influence editorial coverage, brand ratings, or product reviews in any way. A dealer's subscription status is never considered when evaluating the brands they carry.

What We Don't Do

For complete clarity, here is what AI Mower News does not do:

  • ❌ We do not run display advertising of any kind
  • ❌ We do not earn affiliate commissions from product sales (Amazon, manufacturer referrals, etc.)
  • ❌ We do not accept payment in exchange for favorable reviews or higher brand ratings
  • ❌ We do not allow paying partners to preview, approve, or influence editorial content before publication
  • ❌ We do not operate an e-commerce storefront or resell any products
  • ❌ We do not accept free products contingent on positive coverage

How We Compare to Affiliate Review Sites

Many popular robotic mower "review" sites earn 4–10% commission on every product sold through their links. This creates an inherent conflict of interest: the more products they recommend, the more money they make — regardless of product quality.

AI Mower News does not use an affiliate model. Our revenue comes from dealer directory subscriptions, which are kept separate from the articles. When we rate a brand, compare mowers, or publish an analysis, there is no financial incentive tied to whether you buy the product.
