How the directory works
Each listing comes from a Ledger, our scored study of what vendors actually shipped, year by year. The Ledger Index (0 to 100) adds capability, release credibility, buyer risk, lock-in and AI delivery. The editorial part of every listing is that score and its notes, and it changes only when the Ledger is updated.
User reviews sit next to it. You can post one without signing up: pick a rating from 1 to 5 and say what you run and what happened. We read every review before it appears and remove adverts, spam and personal attacks. Vendors cannot pay to be listed, ranked or reviewed. See the Ledgers & Reports for the full method.
