How We Compare
Cataleo compares software against a fixed set of factual criteria. Every tool in a category is measured against the same list, in the same order. We record what a tool does, for example whether it offers time tracking, invoicing, or an API. We do not rate vendors as good or bad; we show the differences and leave the decision to you.
Where the Data Comes From
The information comes from sources the vendors publish themselves, such as their websites, pricing pages, and documentation. Where a vendor does not state something, the table says so rather than guessing. If you spot an error, tell us and we will correct it.
How the Entries Are Written
The entries in this directory are researched and written with AI assistance. The sources are the ones vendors publish themselves, their websites, pricing pages and documentation, and only those: aggregators and review sites are not used. Every entry is then checked against a fixed set of rules before it can go live, which is what keeps the categories comparable. Where a fact cannot be confirmed from an official source, the field stays empty and the page says so instead of filling the gap with something plausible. Nothing is invented, and prices least of all.
How We Make Money
Some links are affiliate links. If you buy through one, Cataleo may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This does not affect which criteria we compare or what the table reports.
What "Sponsored" Means
Tools marked Sponsored are paid placements: the vendor pays to appear first in a category listing. The label is always shown, and paid placement never changes the criteria a tool is measured against or the values recorded for it.
Reviews and How They Are Checked
No reviews are published on this site yet, and no score anywhere here comes from one. When reviews go live, this is how they will be handled: a person reads every review before it appears, a working email address is required so the author is reachable rather than anonymous, and positive and negative reviews are published alike. We do not pay for reviews, we offer nothing in exchange for one, and we accept none that was incentivised. A vendor cannot have a review removed, bought or changed. What we cannot verify is a purchase: there is no shop and no account here, so whether an author really used the tool rests on their own statement and on the plausibility of what they write. We would rather say that than imply a check that does not exist.
Logos and Screenshots
Company names, logos and screenshots belong to their respective owners. They are shown here to identify the products being compared, which is what trademark law allows, and their use implies no endorsement of Cataleo by the vendor. Every file is hosted by us rather than loaded from the vendor, so visiting a page sends nothing to them. If you own a mark and want its use here changed, write to us and we will act on it.
