Editorial policy and disclosures

Last updated November 2, 2026.

entities.org publishes sourced records of companies, so a buyer can see what holds up before they talk to one.

The entities.org team writes every record. Companies do not write their own, and the site carries no guest posts or partner content.

Our business ties

Brandvious, Inc. runs entities.org and sells marketing services, including work to help companies show up in search and AI answers. The people who write and check records here work for Brandvious, Inc.

As of November 2, 2026, most records on entities.org are for clients of Brandvious, Inc. Being a client is one reason a company gets a record.

A client's record carries a "Sponsored" label at the top of the page and in the lists on the site. On that record, links to the client's own website carry a sponsored tag for search engines.

Records can also cover marketing agencies that compete with Brandvious, Inc. Because of these ties, entities.org is not independent.

What a business tie does not change

We check a sponsored record under the same rules as every other record. A client cannot add a fact without a source or have an accurate fact removed.

A company without enough outside sources for a useful record does not get one, client or not. Record text does not rate, rank or score companies, and no one can pay for a higher place on a list.

How records are written

A company's own website identifies them but cannot confirm what they claim about themselves, so we look to outside sources first. When a company and an outside source disagree, the record names both.

A certification, license or award goes under Credentials only when the body that issues it, or another independent source, confirms it. Other claims a buyer would act on go under Company claims, next to what outside sources found.

Records describe a company. They do not recommend companies or tell readers what to buy. Each record is as long as its evidence allows. Records name people only for their role, never with personal contact details.

entities.org is not a fact-checker. A record reports what its sources showed when we checked them, and a fact can change after that.

The full method is on How we write and check records.

Checks and signing

Software checks every record against the site's writing rules and compares records so no two share sentences. An AI reviewer then reads the record against the same rules. A second reader checks every sentence against its source.

Ralph Lemos reads each record against its sources and those checks, then signs it. The byline reads "Reviewed and published by" and his name.

How AI is used

AI tools help us find sources, draft records and run checks. People decide what goes live, and Ralph Lemos signs each record.

Search engines and AI tools can read the records. The site asks that the records not be used to train AI models.

The checks described on this page apply to record pages. The site's public API and MCP server send data from our database instead of the signed record text, and they do not show the "Sponsored" label.

Corrections and updates

If a fact on a record is wrong, email support@entities.org with the record's name, the sentence that is wrong and a source if you have one. We check the report against the record's sources and the one you send.

If the report holds up, we correct the record and its "Updated" date moves. If not, the record stays as it is and we reply to say why.

If the record is about your company, send an outside source. Your own website cannot confirm a claim on its own.

The "Updated" date moves only when a reader would notice the change, such as a fact added, removed or corrected. A layout fix or a typo does not move it.

The same steps are on our report a mistake page.

How the site makes money

entities.org has no ads or affiliate links. The site does not sell places on lists, and it does not sell records on their own.

Clients pay Brandvious, Inc. for marketing work, and a record here can be part of that work. Those records carry a "Sponsored" label. Anything paid on a record page or list carries a label.
