Editorial standards
- Sourced claims. Every quantitative claim or methodology statement is cited inline to a primary source (PMI PMBOK, Standish Group, Wellingtone, peer-reviewed research, vendor documentation).
- Honest comparisons. Comparison content explicitly states scenarios where competing tools are the better choice, not just where GanttFather wins.
- Pricing parity. All pricing, feature, and tier facts in articles match the live product. When the product changes, the articles change with it.
- Update tracking. Articles that have been substantively updated carry a
dateModifiedfield rendered visibly under the title and emitted in BlogPosting structured data. - No AI-generated filler. Articles are drafted, fact-checked, and edited by the team. AI tools assist with research and structure, never with substituted opinion or fabricated citations.
