Best Practices

​
1. Use Official Sources

Good: Official website, documentation, GitHub repo
Bad: Blog posts, news articles, third-party reviews

​
2. Be Current

Good: Information from last 3 months
Bad: Information from 2 years ago

​
3. Be Specific

Good: "Supports Next.js App Router and Pages Router"
Bad: "Works with Next.js"

​
4. Verify Privacy Claims

Privacy claims are critical - double-check: 
Good: Checked privacy policy, confirmed data training
Bad: "I think they don't train on code"

​
5. Include Pricing Details

Vague pricing isn’t helpful: 
Good: "Free tier: 120 requests/day. Pro: $20/month unlimited."
Bad: "Has free and paid plans"
