How the awards work

Every award comes from one of our top picks. When we publish a top pick, the tools we choose for it get a badge. Nobody applies for one, and nobody can pay for one. Paid placements do not exist on Leapscope.

A badge says a tool was picked in our research. It does not say we tested it hands on; our top picks say on each page what the pick rests on.

Badges are dated by year. If a tool loses its pick when we update a page, its badge comes off this page and we ask the company to remove it.
