Editorial policy

Useful before searchable.

Our guides are written for Shopify merchants making real inventory and pricing decisions. Search visibility is a distribution goal, not a reason to publish filler.

How we write

Use of AI tools

Gradient may use AI tools to help organize research, test clarity, or draft structure. Every published article is reviewed for factual accuracy, product truth, unsupported claims, and practical usefulness. We do not publish large batches of unreviewed, automatically generated pages.

Corrections and updates

Each guide displays a review date. We update articles when Shopify behavior changes, when the product changes, or when a material error is found. Readers can report an issue through Gradient support.

Commercial relationship

Sale House is Gradient's product. Articles may link to its Shopify App Store listing when the product is relevant. That relationship does not change the calculations or source citations presented in a guide.
