Methodology
This report is generated from Intelloro's reviewed AI directory as of May 2026. Every tool and agent undergoes a 3-stage verification pipeline:
- Automated Scraping — Scrapfly scrapes up to 10 pages per tool website
- AI Extraction — Gemini 2.5 Flash extracts 70+ fields with Google Search grounding
- Human Verification (Approach 3) — Claude verifies 35 target fields against 15 external sources
Job classifications use O*NET (Occupational Information Network) codes, mapped to ISCO-08 for international comparability. Industry classifications use NAICS (North American Industry Classification System), mapped to ISIC Rev.4 globally.
Dimension scores (ease of use, output quality, value, customizability, support, integration power) are generated using a hybrid of G2/Capterra user ratings and AI-estimated scores, calibrated against real user review data.
