Editorial Standards & AI Disclosure

Last updated: September 11, 2026

At SellerAIReady, our goal is to help Etsy sellers and small e-commerce owners understand and prepare for AI-powered shopping — including Google AI Mode, Gemini, ChatGPT Shopping, and the wider shift toward agentic commerce. This page explains exactly how our content is produced, reviewed, and kept accurate, so you always know what you are reading and how much to trust it.

Our Editorial Mission

We publish practical, testable guidance. Every guide is written to answer a real question an Etsy seller would actually ask, in plain language, with concrete steps that can be applied the same day. We do not publish clickbait, fake income claims, or “secret hacks”.

How We Create Our Content

Each article follows the same process:

  1. Research. AI systems and the publisher collect primary sources first: official platform documentation, company filings, policy pages, and direct first-party observations. Material claims record the source and period they describe.
  2. AI drafting. Articles are drafted, structured, edited, and formatted with AI under a publisher-directed workflow.
  3. Publisher review. The publisher reviews cited evidence, calculations, disclosures, and the final publication package, supplies first-party screenshots or account observations where required, and approves corrections. We do not claim that every sentence is manually written or rewritten by a human.
  4. Maintenance. Articles about fast-moving AI features are revisited regularly and updated when platforms change.

Our Use of AI (Full Disclosure)

In short: SellerAIReady uses AI throughout research assistance, drafting, editing, image generation, formatting, and quality checks. The publisher directs the workflow, reviews the evidence package, and controls final publication. AI-produced does not mean exempt from verification.

Specifically:

  • Research assistance: AI tools may gather and summarize publicly available material. High-impact claims are checked against the direct source before publication; inaccessible or unsupported claims are removed or labelled as assumptions.
  • Drafting and editing: AI creates and revises the article under documented publisher instructions. The publisher approves the final release; this is not a claim of manual human authorship.
  • Illustrations: the illustrations and featured images on this site are generated with AI image tools and are used for visual explanation only. They are not photographs of real products, people, or interfaces.
  • What we never do: we do not knowingly publish unsupported statistics, fabricated quotes, or AI-generated images presented as real screenshots or product photos. If an error is found, we correct it and record material changes.
  • Tool-review labels: “tested” or “we use” appears only when documented first-hand use exists. Otherwise, a tool is described as compared from official feature, pricing, and policy pages.

Sourcing and Accuracy

  • We prioritize primary sources: official platform documentation and official company announcements.
  • When we cite a statistic, we name the organization behind it, the period it refers to, and whether it is a first-party record, a derived calculation, or an explicitly labelled estimate.
  • When something is our opinion, an estimate, or an untested prediction, we say so explicitly.
  • We do not guarantee results. AI shopping features change frequently and vary by country and account.

Corrections and Updates

When a platform changes or we find an error, we update the affected page and refresh its visible or platform-level update date where available. If a correction changes the meaning of the original advice, we add a visible correction note inside the article.

If you spot an error, please tell us — we genuinely want to fix it. Write to selleraiready@gmail.com or use our Contact page.

Editorial Independence and Monetization

SellerAIReady may earn revenue from affiliate links, advertising, and our own digital products. This never changes our recommendations:

  • Recommendations are based on official feature, pricing, and policy pages, first-party marketplace data, or documented first-hand tests. We state which evidence applies.
  • We do not accept payment for a positive review, and we do not sell editorial coverage.
  • Affiliate relationships are disclosed on our Affiliate Disclosure page.
  • Advertising is clearly separated from editorial content.
