Affiliate Disclosure
This site participates in affiliate marketing programs. This page explains what that means, how it affects what you read here, and what our commitments are to keep recommendations honest.
What “affiliate disclosure” means in practice
Some links on Stack Wave Hub are affiliate links. When you click one of these links and make a purchase, the merchant (the tool company) may pay us a commission. This commission comes out of the merchant’s marketing budget — it does not cost you extra. The price you pay is the same whether you arrived via our link or by going to the merchant’s site directly.
Affiliate links on this site are marked in two ways: (1) the standard HTML attribute rel="nofollow sponsored", which tells search engines this is a commercial relationship, and (2) a disclosure block at the top of each post that contains affiliate links. We follow the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines on endorsements, which require clear and conspicuous disclosure when there’s a material connection between us and the products we recommend.
Which programs Stack Wave Hub participates in
Our active affiliate partnerships include: ElevenLabs (AI voice synthesis, direct affiliate program), and various programs via the PartnerStack network including programs for Murf AI, Castmagic, GetResponse, Reclaim.ai, Gamma, AdCreative.ai, and Hume AI. We may add additional partnerships over time as we test and verify tools that fit the editorial niche.
How we choose which tools to review
Tools get covered on this site for two reasons: either we use them in our own workflow, or we tested them specifically to evaluate whether they’re worth recommending. We don’t accept pitches to “review our product” from companies whose tools we haven’t independently chosen to test. Sponsored content, if we ever publish it, will be clearly labeled as such — not disguised as editorial review.
What this site does NOT do
- We don’t run paid search advertising on affiliate brand terms. This is both an ethical position and a contractual requirement of programs like ElevenLabs, which prohibits affiliates from bidding on its brand terms in Google or Bing ads.
- We don’t recommend tools we haven’t tested. If a tool appears on this site, someone here ran it through real workflow scenarios first.
- We don’t bury negative findings. If a tool has limitations, weaknesses, or specific cases where it doesn’t work, those caveats appear in the review alongside what it does well.
- We don’t use cookie-stuffing or other manipulative affiliate tactics. Standard tracking only, as provided by the merchants themselves.
