What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“I'd suggest starting with Shopify Collabs (if on Shopify) or Referral Rocket ($16/month) as your most cost-effective options” MiniMax M2.5 · Affiliate · budget prompt · first choice

“Best if you're on Shopify: Shopify Collabs — very low overhead and built for affiliate-style creator partnerships” Perplexity Sonar · Influencer · budget prompt · alternative

“A free, native tool within the Shopify ecosystem. It’s very basic but perfect for small store owners” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Influencer · comparative prompt · alternative

“Other Budget-Friendly Options ... Shopify Collabs | Free (2.9% payout fee) | Shopify merchants” Grok 4.1 Fast · Influencer · budget prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

No model argued against it.

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Shopify Collabs's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Shopify Collabs, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at shopify.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
