# Disclosures

This page states every commercial relationship that could shape what you read on omphalis.ai. It is short because there are not many.

## How Omphalis makes money

Subscriptions, and nothing else. People pay a monthly fee for a plan; that is the entire revenue model. See the [pricing page](https://omphalis.ai/pricing) for what each plan costs and includes. There is no advertising on this site, we do not sell your data, and there is no free tier funded by anything other than the paid plans.

## Affiliate links

There are none. No link on this site earns Omphalis a commission, referral fee, or any other payment when you click it or buy something at the other end.

If that ever changes, the disclosure will appear on the page carrying the link, above the link itself, not buried here.

## The badges in the footer

The startup-directory badges at the bottom of every page (BetaList, Startup Fame, PostYourStartup, ValidateHunt, Nick Launches, Scoutforge) link to listings of Omphalis on those sites. The listings are free, no money moves in either direction, and clicking one earns us nothing. They are there because a directory that lists us is a third-party record that we exist, and linking back is the convention those directories ask for.

## Comparison pages

The pages comparing Omphalis to other products ([Compare](https://omphalis.ai/compare), [vs Readwise](https://omphalis.ai/vs/readwise), [vs NotebookLM](https://omphalis.ai/vs/notebooklm)) are written by us about our own product. We are not a neutral reviewer and you should not read them as one.

What we do commit to: every claim about another product is checked against that product’s own public documentation or pricing page at the time of writing, we do not describe a competitor’s feature as missing when it exists, and we are not paid by anyone to be compared favourably. Other products change, and a claim can go out of date without anyone noticing. If you find one that has, [tell us](https://omphalis.ai/contact) and we will correct it.

## Reviews and ratings

We have never bought a review, paid for a rating, or offered anything in exchange for one, on Trustpilot, Capterra, the Chrome Web Store, Firefox Add-ons, or anywhere else. We do ask real users to review us.

## Testimonials

Quotes attributed to users on this site come from real people who used the product and are published with their permission. Nobody is paid to provide one.

## Who writes this site

The pages here are written by Stanly Thomas, who founded and builds Omphalis; see [about](https://omphalis.ai/about). Posts on the [blog](https://omphalis.ai/blog) are house content published under the Omphalis name rather than signed essays, and are marked as such in their attribution.

## Questions

If something on this site reads like it might be sponsored and this page does not explain it, that is a bug. Write to us through the [contact](https://omphalis.ai/contact) page.
