Transparency matters. Here’s how we make money.
How We Make Money
Automation Authority is an independent website that reviews and compares AI automation tools for small businesses. We participate in affiliate programs, which means we may earn a commission when you click on links to products and services on our site and make a purchase.
This comes at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the vendor’s website.
Our Commitment to You
Earning commissions does not influence our reviews or recommendations. Our opinions are our own, and we only recommend products and services that we believe provide genuine value to small business owners.
- We test tools ourselves before recommending them
- We include honest pros AND cons in every review
- We tell you when a tool isn’t right for you (see our “Who this is NOT for” sections)
- We update our content when tools change or better alternatives emerge
Affiliate Programs We Participate In
We may earn commissions from the following companies and programs (this list is not exhaustive):
- Zapier
- Make (formerly Integromat)
- ChatGPT Plus / OpenAI
- Notion
- HubSpot
- Jasper
- Calendly
- Various other SaaS and automation tools
How to Identify Affiliate Links
Links to products and services throughout our articles may be affiliate links. When you click these links and make a purchase, we may receive a commission. We aim to be transparent about this relationship throughout our content.
