Affiliate Disclosure
Some links on AIKMT may be affiliate links. If a reader buys through those links, AIKMT may earn a commission at no extra cost to the reader.
How affiliate links are used
Affiliate relationships do not change the goal of our content: practical guidance for small business owners. Tool recommendations should be based on use case fit, clarity, pricing, workflow value, and limitations.
Reader-first recommendations
AIKMT may mention tools that do not have affiliate programs. We may also point out when a free plan, simpler tool, or manual workflow is a better starting point than a paid product.
Sponsored link handling
When affiliate links are added, they should be clearly qualified in the site markup with appropriate sponsored link attributes.
What affiliate links should not change
Affiliate links should not decide whether a tool is mentioned, hide a practical limitation, remove a cheaper alternative, or turn a workflow caution into a recommendation. AIKMT should still explain when a manual process, free plan, or different category of tool is a better starting point.
How outbound links are handled
Tool links usually pass through AIKMT handoff pages such as /go/chatgpt. Those pages help keep vendor destinations centralized, add campaign attribution, and remind readers to verify current pricing and plan details before buying.
Current monetization status
AIKMT is still building affiliate readiness. Some current outbound links are official vendor links rather than active affiliate links. When an affiliate relationship becomes active, the recommendation should remain based on workflow fit.
