**The Schedulist is fully owned and operated by Connecteam**, a company that sells
employee scheduling and management software. Connecteam is a vendor in the market
we cover. We disclose that relationship so readers understand who is behind the 
website and can assess our recommendations with that context.

## Does The Schedulist earn revenue?

**No. The Schedulist does not earn revenue.** We do not display paid advertising,
receive affiliate commissions or referral fees, sell leads, accept sponsorships,
or charge software companies to appear on the site. There are no paid rankings or
sponsored placements.

Connecteam operates The Schedulist and has a commercial interest in the employee
scheduling market. The lack of direct revenue does not remove that interest.

## Who decides which products appear?

Our editorial team has full freedom over the products considered, the eligibility
rules, scoring criteria, rankings, and conclusions. Connecteam’s ownership does 
not influence those decisions.

Connecteam has no guaranteed place in a comparison. Its product can rank below competing
software or be excluded when it does not meet the requirements. Every vendor is 
assessed against the same criteria within a given comparison.

## What happens when we review Connecteam?

We disclose the ownership relationship within commercial comparisons, including 
near recommendations. We use Connecteam’s official product documentation for factual
claims about its software, applying the same evidence rules used for other vendors.
We do not use Connecteam’s editorial comparison articles as research sources.

Our assessments rely on documented product facts and third-party user reviews. **
We do not conduct hands-on software testing.** Read [How We Review Software](https://theschedulist.com/how-we-review-software/)
and our [Editorial Guidelines](https://theschedulist.com/editorial-guidelines/) 
for details, or [contact us](https://theschedulist.com/contact/) with a question
