How we verify deals
AIDeals exists because most “AI deal” sites are full of fake coupon codes and stale prices. Here is exactly how we keep ours accurate.
1. We only publish prices we read on the official page
Every plan price, free-tier limit, and annual rate comes from the tool's own pricing page - not from memory, not from other blogs, and never from coupon-aggregator sites. If we can't confirm a number on the official source, we don't publish it.
2. Every deal is dated
Each deal carries a visible “Verified” date. When you see a date, that's the day a human (or our monitor) last confirmed the number against the source. Nothing on the site is undated.
3. We re-check on a rolling schedule
AI pricing changes fast - we've watched a flagship tool halve its price within days. An automated monitor re-verifies a rotating group of tools every day so the whole catalog is re-confirmed each week, and logs every change to our Deal Drops feed.
4. We never invent coupon codes
Most first-party AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney) don't issue public promo codes at all. We say so plainly instead of listing fake codes to farm clicks. The real discounts - annual billing, student programs, free tiers - are what we track.
5. We show our work
Deal pages include the full plan table and the math behind each saving. Our AI Pricing Index reports what changed and how we measured it. If we get something wrong, the dated record makes it easy to see and fix.
