Published research has a date, and the answer can change.

AlreadyChecked publishes research before the customer arrives. Prices, plans, product features, policies and competitors can change afterward, so each important comparison needs a way to be rechecked and corrected.

Checked dates

Research pages show when material facts were last reviewed. A checked date tells the reader when the page's pricing, terms, comparison and other time-sensitive claims were evaluated; it is not a promise that nothing can change afterward.

When we should recheck a page

• A price, trial or subscription plan changes materially.
• A required feature is added, removed or restricted.
• Official terms, billing rules or cancellation policies change.
• A product is discontinued, replaced or materially redesigned.
• A credible competitor becomes a better fit for the decision.
• New independent evidence or recurring customer feedback changes an important limitation.
• An affiliate destination changes, stops working or no longer matches the page's disclosure.

Corrections

If a factual error is identified, the published page should be corrected. If the corrected fact changes the comparison or verdict, the conclusion should change too. Preserving an old winner is less important than preserving an accurate page.

Conflicting evidence

When credible sources disagree, the disagreement should be shown as uncertainty or a limitation instead of being rewritten as certainty. A clean sales message is not a reason to hide a material conflict.

Pages can lose their recommendation

A product that was once the best fit may stop being the best fit. A price increase, weaker terms, a stronger competitor or a serious product change can all justify revising or removing the recommendation while keeping the page useful to readers.

Maintenance is part of the content factory

As AlreadyChecked grows, maintenance workers and checks should prioritize pages with meaningful traffic, commercial value, fast-changing prices or terms, and older checked dates. The goal is to keep the published library useful without turning the customer experience into a live search engine.
