How we compare digital services

The rules behind every digital page of Fordeal: what decides the order, what we do not judge, where the prices come from and how fresh they are. The numbers on this page are read from the same data the comparison shows.

In short

Plans are ordered by their monthly price in your currency, cheapest first, and only within one tier. We do not judge the quality of AI answers, streaming libraries or VPN speed; each plan shows what its official page says it includes. Every price is read from the provider's official price list with the day it was verified, and a commission never changes the order.

What decides the order

Plans are ordered by their price a month in your currency, cheapest first, and compared only within one tier (free, basic, advanced, highest), so a free plan never stands against a professional one. The filters narrow the list by what the official page states (writing, coding, pictures, voice, video), price and commitment. A partner program or a commission never changes the order; paid placement does not exist.

A low price does not mean higher performance

The cheapest plan may not be enough: plans differ in message limits, models, storage, devices and terms. We do not measure or score the quality of AI answers, the content of streaming libraries or the speed of a VPN. Each plan therefore shows what its official page says it includes and limits; whatever the page does not state is "not stated", never "no".

Where the prices come from

Every price is read from the provider's official price list, with a link to it and the day it was verified. Prices in another currency are converted at the Czech National Bank rate (now that of 06/11/2026). VAT is stated as the page states it: included, excluded or not stated.

A promotion is shown next to the lasting price with its end and the price after it, never in its place.

How often we check

41 of 389 plans show their price on the official page as fixed text a robot recognises; it reads them every day and confirms an unchanged price. The others are read once a week, and the date moves only when the price is still found on the official page. A robot never writes a changed price: a person approves it first.

The oldest check in the comparison is from 08/10/2026, the newest from 06/11/2026; every plan shows its own.

AI API

API models are compared by their price per million input, cached input and output tokens. The calculator multiplies them by your number of messages and their length; Czech splits into more tokens than English, so the result is an estimate. A subscription is shown beside it only as orientation: it may not allow the same use or include the same model.

Commission

When a button leads through a partner link, we may earn a commission if you subscribe. It changes only where the button points: never the order, the prices or what we write about a plan.
