Trust & methodology

Editorial Policy

ReelPulse covers short-drama platforms, viewing costs, titles, market data, and creator tools. This policy explains what we verify and how readers can evaluate our work.

Last updated September 7, 2026

Source Hierarchy

We prioritize primary sources: official app stores, platform terms and privacy policies, company announcements, regulatory filings, original datasets, and direct product observations. Credible research and trade reporting may provide context, but we identify estimates and attribution.

  • Link the source close to the claim when practical.
  • Date price, feature, and availability checks.
  • Separate company claims from independently observed facts.
  • Avoid presenting one account, market, or promotion as universal.

Reviews and Rankings

ReelScore and editorial rankings are ReelPulse judgments, not App Store scores or audited market shares. We explain criteria and do not allow a platform, advertiser, or affiliate partner to buy a ranking.

A review can contain affiliate links. Commercial eligibility does not determine whether a product is included or what conclusion we publish.

Prices, Rewards, and Refunds

Checkout prices, coins, trials, ads, and free episodes can vary by country, account, title, and date. We use dated snapshots and direct readers to the live offer. Cancellation and refund eligibility are described as separate processes.

AI and Human Review

Automation and AI tools may support research organization, calculations, drafts, or production testing. A human editor is responsible for the published claim, source selection, context, and correction. We do not treat generated text as a source.
