Disclosure

What our relationship is to the bots on this site, and what it isn't.

We do not own any bot listed here

PolyBotRank holds no ownership stake, equity, or operating role in any of the 11 products ranked on this site. We did not build any of them. Nobody on this site is a house product wearing a review site as a disguise.

No bot has paid for inclusion, for its position, or for a higher score. Scores are not for sale, and outbound links to every product carry rel="nofollow" and are not affiliate links.

Why the top three rank where they do

The index weights published, checkable disclosure at 30% and track record at 20%. WeatherBot, RainBot and 5MinuteBot publish full statistics — win rate, aggregate P&L, trade counts, volume, and in two cases active user numbers. Most competitors publish a latency figure and a price and nothing else. On a transparency-weighted index, that gap decides the ordering.

Two things make that testable rather than something you have to take on trust.

First: the top two — WeatherBot (#1) and RainBot (#2) — are products we have no relationship with whatsoever. We do not own them, host them, or earn anything from them. They rank first and second purely on what they publish.

Second: the bots we do host are not protected by it. PolyCop (#5) and PolyGun (#7) sit mid-table, marked down for publishing no performance data at all — below third-party tools including a free open-source competitor at #4. We did not exempt them, and we will not.

If a bot we host starts publishing audited numbers it will rise, and if one we do not host publishes better data than the current leaders it will overtake them. The weighting will not be adjusted to prevent either outcome.

What we will not do

  • We do not write fake user reviews, and we do not publish reviews we have not verified.
  • We do not publish invented performance figures for any product, for any reason.
  • We do not accept payment for a ranking position.
  • We do not soften a criticism because a product runs on our infrastructure.

Corrections

If you operate a bot listed here and we have a figure wrong, misread your documentation, missed data you do publish, or described your relationship with us inaccurately, write to [email protected]. We will check it, correct it, and date the correction.
