Review Principles

Discreet by Default

We look for private browsing, profile controls, discreet billing language, and clear account deletion rules.

Verified Signals

Profile quality, moderation workflows, scam reporting, and support responsiveness all affect ratings.

Value

Paid vs Free

Premium features are scored by usefulness, not just how aggressively a site pushes credits or subscriptions.
