How we verify deals
Most “deal” sites earn a commission whether the deal is good or not. Our whole job is telling you when it isn't. Here's how we decide.
The AI deal-quality engine
Every deal in our system is scored by an AI model that weighs the discount depth, how the price compares to what that item usually sells for, the retailer, and dozens of other signals. It flags the genuinely strong offers and buries the noise — the permanent "sales" and rounding-error discounts that fill most coupon sites.
A human editor makes the call
The AI narrows it down; a person writes the verdict. Every store read is reviewed by a Gazoobie editor before it publishes. We look at how the retailer actually runs its promotions, what real shoppers report, and whether the "deal" holds up — then we say who it's for and who should skip it, in plain language.
Our own price history (and growing)
Gazoobie logs a daily price snapshot for the deals we track, building an independent record over time. As that history deepens, our verdicts get sharper — we can tell you when a "lowest price of the year" claim matches reality and when it doesn't, with dated evidence instead of marketing copy.
Our honesty standard
A few lines we hold, so you can trust the verdict on any page:
- We never call a real store’s sale "fake" or "a scam." We tell you whether it’s a good deal for you — that’s a different, fairer question.
- We never take a payment to move a store up, soften a verdict, or bury a warning. Rankings and reads are editorial.
- We never claim a price is the lowest ever unless our own data backs it. No history, no claim.
