Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: 2026-08-16. Disclosure required by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), and equivalent consumer-protection authorities worldwide.
What this is
AI Made is an independent, reader-supported publication. Some links in our articles are affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and buy the product, we may earn a small commission from the retailer. The commission comes out of the retailer’s marketing budget, not yours — the price you pay is the same as if you’d gone directly to the retailer.
How we mark affiliate links
Affiliate links in articles are marked in one of two ways:
- Disclosed inline — at the top of the article in a “Disclosure” line, or in the link’s anchor text (“Buy on Amazon” / “From $X at retailer”).
- Disclosed at the article level — for product round-ups and reviews where most or all links are affiliate links, a banner at the top of the article says “This article contains affiliate links.”
If you cannot tell whether a link is an affiliate link, it almost certainly is not. We do not secretly affiliate.
Our editorial standard does not change
The presence of an affiliate relationship never changes our editorial coverage:
- We do not write a positive review in exchange for an affiliate commission.
- We do not rank products by commission rate.
- We do not link a product as “our pick” because the affiliate program pays more than a competitor’s program.
- If a product is our top pick, we link to it even if the affiliate program is the lowest-paying one available.
If we recommend something, we recommend it because we tested it and judged it the best option for the reader’s stated need, not because of the affiliate payout.
Current affiliate partners
The retailers and networks we currently have affiliate relationships with:
- Amazon Associates (US, UK, EU, JP, and other regions)
- Other retailers and networks as listed at the time of publication in the relevant article’s affiliate disclosure block
We add new affiliate partners when there is a reader benefit (a product we’d recommend anyway happens to be in their program). We do not add partners for the commission alone.
Sponsored content is different
Sponsored content (paid for by a partner, written with input from the partner, or distributed by the partner) is always labelled Sponsored or Partner Content at the top of the article. Sponsored content is reviewed for accuracy and compliance but reflects the partner’s positioning. Affiliate links and sponsored content are tracked separately.
