Record the evidence
The research process collects AI responses to a defined question and identifies recommendation positions, provider appearances, and supporting source records. A valid platform response is the unit of measurement.
The study record documents its date, coverage, and limitations. A general process description is not proof that a particular check took place in every article.
Explain the findings
The Hosting Consensus Index Team prepares and publishes the indexes and fit reviews. Editorial work separates observed results from interpretation and makes important limitations visible.
The publishing credit identifies responsibility for the explanation. It does not create an extra recommendation or change the underlying response data.
Review the hosting context
Kaushal Malkan is the publication’s named Hosting Research Reviewer. His review focuses on terminology, product descriptions, practical context, and the clarity of consumer-facing explanations.
Articles identify him as reviewer when review has been confirmed. New or materially revised content requires its own review record.
