Our Team & 2026 Review Methodology
The Review Methodology is the core foundation of Core Rated. This Review Methodology is dedicated to providing clear, unbiased analysis of hosting and software by auditing vendor contracts, verifying documentation, and exposing the true long-term financial liabilities. This process is built on systematic rigor, replacing marketing hype with verifiable facts.
The core of Core Rated’s mission is our Review Methodology. Unlike subjective, anecdotal reviews common across the web, the Review Methodology is built on verifiable documentation, contractual evidence, and objective data analysis. This commitment ensures that every verdict is traceable and repeatable, allowing you to trust the process.
3 Steps for Integrity & Transparency
Core Rated’s methodology is founded on 3 core principles: Honesty (affiliate transparency), Rigor (AI research and human audit), and Clarity (simplifying technical terms).
1. The Principle of Rigor
Core Rated believes that accurate reviews are not about running superficial speed tests; they are about systematic verification. Core Rated’s rigor begins with AI deep research, which collects and structures thousands of data points related to vendor claims, feature sets, and official documentation. This raw data is then subjected to a human audit, where our lead Integrity Reviewer (Amira Ezzeldin) cross-references contractual fine print against marketing claims. This methodical process ensures that every finding is based on verifiable technical specifications and written contractual terms, providing a true assessment of vendor risk and capability. This approach replaces subjective benchmarks with objective, repeatable facts.
Core Rated’s commitment to data integrity aligns with the highest international standards for verifiable business data. You can learn more about general principles of Quality Assurance on resources like the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
2. The Principle of Honesty
Our commitment to honesty is demonstrated through our affiliate transparency policy. The inclusion or rating of any host or service is determined exclusively by the data revealed during the audit—never by commission potential. It is critical to Core Rated’s mission to feature and analyze direct competitors, even those for which Core Rated holds no affiliate relationship. Core Rated prioritizes exposing contractual liabilities and renewal shock across the entire market to best serve the reader. This commitment ensures the published analysis is truly comprehensive and allows the reader to make a fully informed decision, free from common industry bias and financial incentive.
3. The Principle of Clarity
Technology analysis is useless if the reader cannot quickly act on the information. Core Rated recognizes that deep technical jargon can be a barrier to founders and business owners. The final step in the review process is dedicated to simplifying complex terms, making dense infrastructure comparisons and contractual clauses accessible. The goal is to provide clear, actionable verdicts that empower strategic decision-making without requiring the reader to be a technical expert. Core Rated translates complex data into clear, simple language that speaks directly to business compliance and long-term cost.
A Message from the Founder
I’m Amira Ezzeldin, founder of CoreRated.com.
My mission is to help people decide the best technology out there without wasting money on useless tools.
My background is scientific, specifically in the chemical and pharmaceutical fields. I also possess good knowledge of web development.
Core Rated is a website dedicated to product and service reviews. The comprehensive reviews are generated through AI deep research, but rigorously audited by me to ensure honesty, integrity, and transparency.
I’m sure you’ll find some review terminology difficult, but I’m doing my best to simplify the technical terms.
Affiliate Transparency: Not all companies in the reviews are affiliate partners. For the sake of honesty, all companies receive the same analytical attention and call-to-action, regardless of affiliate status.
Core Rated was launched in November 2025, so it’s relatively new.
More products and services are going to be researched, reviewed, and added to this website.
If you see something that looks wrong or untrue in the website content, kindly send me an email at admin@corerated.com.
Thanks for visiting my site. I’m so glad to have you.
