Questions

FAQ

AI-free means that no generative AI tools — including large language models, image generators, AI code assistants, or automated content systems — were used in the creation of your products, services, or core business operations. We verify that human expertise, judgment, and craftsmanship drive your output.

Our audit examines your workflows, tools, supply chain, and output to verify AI-free operations. This includes software tools used by your team, content creation processes, product development pipelines, and third-party vendor practices. The scope depends on your chosen tier.

H-Index certification is valid for 12 months from the date of issuance. Professional and Enterprise tiers include annual re-certification. We recommend maintaining documentation of your processes throughout the year to ensure smooth renewal.

Absolutely. Once certified, you receive the official H-Index seal in multiple formats (SVG, PNG, print-ready) along with brand guidelines for placement. You may display it on your website, product packaging, business cards, and marketing collateral.

If your practices change and you begin using AI tools, you are expected to notify H-Index and discontinue use of the seal. Enterprise tier clients benefit from ongoing monitoring that helps maintain compliance. Misuse of the seal after a change in practices constitutes a violation of the certification agreement.

The Starter Audit typically completes within 5–7 business days. Professional Audits take 2–3 weeks due to their comprehensive scope. Enterprise Audits are customized but generally complete within 4–6 weeks. We work with your schedule to minimize disruption.
