This page explains how Realty AI Desk is researched, written, funded and corrected. Last updated August 2026.
Who writes this site
One person, publishing as J.P. I am not a licensed real estate agent and I do not claim to be. Nothing here should be read as legal, financial or brokerage advice. For anything involving MLS rules, disclosure requirements or contracts, check with your broker or your local association.
How tools are tested
- Tools are bought at the public price or used on their public free tier. Vendors do not get to supply accounts, review copy before publication, or approve scores.
- When two tools are compared, they receive identical inputs and identical time.
- Screenshots are taken during testing. Vendor-supplied images are labelled as such.
- Prices are recorded in US dollars on the date stated, from the vendor public pricing page. Prices change; the date tells you how stale the number is.
- If a tool fails, that gets written down too.
How AI is used in the writing
This is a site about AI tools, so it would be strange to be cagey about it. AI assistants are used here for outlining, for tidying sentences and for checking that a draft has not drifted off topic. They are not used to invent test results, generate screenshots, fabricate quotes, or write an article about a product that was never opened. Every claim about what a tool did or cost comes from a session someone actually sat through, and every article is edited and signed off by a human before it goes live.
How the site makes money
Two ways: display advertising, and affiliate commissions on some of the tools covered. If you follow an affiliate link and subscribe, this site may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
The rule that matters: commissions never decide a score, a ranking, or a recommendation. Tools that pay nothing get recommended when they are the best option, and tools with generous affiliate programs get criticised when they deserve it. If a piece is sponsored, it will say so at the top, in plain language, before you read anything else.
Corrections
If something here is wrong, it gets fixed and the change is noted at the bottom of the article with the date. Substantive corrections are not made silently. Pricing and feature updates are marked with a revised date rather than a correction note.
