# Listing policy

[Review with counsel before launch] This policy explains who can be listed and how listings stay accurate.

## What qualifies

- A live AI product that go-to-market teams can buy or sign up for.
- It fits at least one category on the site.
- It has its own website on a domain the company controls.

## Automated checks

- The site loads over HTTPS and matches the company name.
- The product uses AI for its core job.
- The one-liner is plain and checkable.
- Checks run before a listing goes live and again every week.

## Removal

- Sites that stop loading for two weekly checks in a row are unpublished.
- Products that are shut down, misleading or unsafe are removed.
- Vendors can ask us to remove their listing at any time.

## Sponsored labeling

Paid spots always carry a Sponsored label and sit outside the ranked list. Paid links use rel="sponsored". Payment never changes a rank.
