📋 Summary in plain language: This site earns money through affiliate commissions when you sign up for a paid tool through our links, and through monthly listing fees paid by AI consultants. Our statistics come from published third-party research with source links you can verify. Our illustrative examples are composites — not verified accounts of specific individuals. We say all of this clearly throughout the site.
How This Site Makes Money
The Agentic Index has two revenue streams:
- Affiliate commissions — When you click a tool link on this site and subscribe to a paid plan, the software company pays us a commission. This comes from the vendor, not from you. You pay the same price whether you found the tool through our site or directly.
- Provider listing fees — AI consultants listed in our local pro directory pay a monthly fee ($10–$99/month depending on plan) to appear in zip code search results. These are flat monthly fees, not commissions per client referral.
We have no other revenue sources. We do not accept payment for editorial placement, paid reviews, or sponsored content. A tool does not appear on this site because it paid us — it appears because we determined it may be useful for trade businesses.
Which Links Are Affiliate Links?
Every “Learn More” or tool button on our AI tool listing pages is a potential affiliate link. We disclose this on every page containing affiliate links with the text: “We earn a small commission if you subscribe — at no extra cost to you.”
The following types of links are not affiliate links:
- Links to local AI consultant directory profiles
- Links to research sources and statistics cited on this site
- Links to platform homepages in the review ratings section
- Navigation links between pages on this site
Does the Affiliate Relationship Affect Our Recommendations?
No. We list tools because they may be useful for specific trade businesses — not because they offer the most generous commission. Several of the most useful tools we list have lower commission rates than alternatives we chose not to include.
We reserve the right to remove any tool listing at any time if we determine it no longer serves our audience, regardless of the affiliate relationship. If you believe a listed tool is inaccurately described, contact us at hello@theagenticaiindex.com.
Illustrative Examples and Composite Stories
Important: The testimonials, stories, and outcome examples throughout this site — including on trade-specific pages — are illustrative composites. They are not verified accounts of specific named individuals. Names, initials, and business details used in examples are fictional. They are intended to illustrate the types of results that field service businesses have reported in published third-party sources.
These composite examples are based on outcomes published by:
- Jobber (getjobber.com) — published customer case studies and platform data
- Housecall Pro (housecallpro.com) — published platform data and customer outcomes
- ServiceTitan — published industry research and customer case studies
- Field service industry research from Fieldwork, MSI Data, FieldCamp, and AIscending
Individual results vary significantly based on implementation quality, market conditions, business type, and many other factors. No specific outcome is guaranteed.

Verify credentials, request references, review contracts carefully, and confirm any relevant licensing requirements for your jurisdiction. The Agentic Index is not a party to any agreement between a visitor and a listed provider and accepts no liability for the quality of services provided by any listed consultant.
