FAQ & disclosure

Here's how the grabgifts team blends AI monitors with human editors to curate daily picks, keep things transparent, and fund the work.

grabgifts earns a commission on some purchases made through outbound links. Automation alerts us when prices shift or listings look suspicious, but we only recommend products that clear our editorial checks and follow the disclosure rules required by each retailer and platform partner.

What is grabgifts?

grabgifts is a daily editorial experiment built by a small team of editors, analysts, and testers who love giving gifts. We pair AI scoring with human judgment to publish 15 new ideas each morning, complete with sourcing notes, price history context, and suggestions for who will love each pick.

How do you source products?

We track price swings, restocks, and trending conversations across marketplaces and social channels. Automation and AI clustering highlight promising candidates, then editors investigate reviews, materials, and shipping policies before the product enters a guide.

How often are guides refreshed?

Automation sweeps run overnight and again mid-day to check price changes and stock levels. AI alerts escalate anything that needs a closer look, then editors host a morning stand-up to approve swaps, document what changed, and update the homepage, RSS feed, and JSON outputs.

Can I suggest a product?

Yes. Email tips@grabgifts.net or use the forms on our submit page. Include the product link, why it's special, and how you'd like to be credited if it publishes.

Can you help me pick a gift?

We don’t run a concierge service—grabgifts is purely an editorial guide that highlights products worth a look. Instead of swapping one-on-one emails, we keep our guide archive and topic tags current so you can browse by recipient, price, and occasion at your own pace. If you’re still stumped, our submit page lists the research criteria and AI signals we use so you can mirror the same filters on your favorite marketplaces.

How do affiliate links work?

Some retailers pay a referral fee when you buy through our links. Those fees help us fund more testing and automation. AI helps us monitor for broken links or compliance changes, but we always label sponsored relationships, use sponsored/nofollow/noopener attributes, and remove items that no longer meet our standards.

How can I manage my data or unsubscribe?

Email support@grabgifts.net from the address you used. We confirm most requests within two business days, walk you through our Netlify-powered deletion flow, and follow up once the data removal is complete; legal reviews for corporate gifting accounts can stretch the process to five business days, so we point those customers to their employer’s data privacy officer for urgent escalations.

No. We partner with retailers through affiliate programs, but editorial picks are never pay-to-play. If we ever run a paid collaboration, it will be labeled clearly in the guide and in our changelog, and the AI systems that help us screen inventory will never get to override a human disclosure.

Do you test products in person?

Yes. The core lineup ships through our testing room before it lands on the homepage. When we can’t secure a sample, we source multiple third-party reviews, request manufacturer proofs, and note the gap in the product card so you can make an informed choice. AI summaries help us spot inconsistent claims, but human testers make the final call.

What if the gift arrives damaged?

grabgifts doesn’t sell or ship anything directly, so the retailer you bought from controls replacements and refunds. Start with their return policy and customer-service chat—our buying guides only feature stores with clear escalation paths. If you’re running into a wall, the FTC’s billing-error checklist and state consumer protection offices can help you log a formal complaint. Let us know if you spot a pattern; our anomaly detectors flag repeat issues for editor review.

Is there a newsletter?

Absolutely. Each guide includes a newsletter signup that sends a condensed digest every weekday morning. It features the biggest swaps from the changelog, early restock alerts, and reader-requested hunts. AI helps us summarize overnight changes, while humans decide what deserves a headline. If you prefer social updates, we mirror the top three picks on Instagram and TikTok.

Can you help with last-minute gifts?

We don’t take on personal rush hunts, but we do maintain evergreen roundups of same-day, digital, and print-at-home ideas in the last-minute tag. Each guide lists order cutoffs and backup options so you can move fast without waiting for us to weigh in.

Do you cover international shipping?

Our core catalog is U.S.-focused, but we maintain alternates for Canada, the U.K., the EU, and Australia. When you mention a cross-border address, editors highlight customs considerations, currency differences, and any local retailers that can deliver the same experience faster. We can’t currently vet options for Asia, Latin America, or the Middle East; for those regions we recommend starting with local gifting marketplaces such as Giftagram or regional Etsy sellers and double-checking duties via the destination country’s postal calculator.

What if my rush request falls outside your coverage?

A reader in our March 2024 survey asked whether we’d expand into bespoke rush sourcing. For now, the answer is no—we publish research, we don’t run a personal shopping desk. When your deadline is tighter than the shipping windows in our guides, we recommend checking retailer curbside pickup tools, on-demand courier apps such as DoorDash, and digital gift card libraries that can land instantly.

Why didn’t you feature the product I submitted?

A March 2024 reader survey highlighted this frustration. We log every submission, yet only about 12% publish because we need reliable inventory, safety documentation, and positive owner reviews. When something doesn’t make the cut, we send a quarterly roundup email explaining common blockers and pointing you to our submit page checklist so you can re-pitch once issues are resolved.

How do you act on reader feedback?

Every reply, DM, or submission goes into a shared tracker. We tag the note by category—delight, issue, or wishlist—then route it to the right editor. AI summarizes recurring themes so we can respond faster, while humans own the follow-up. Delight entries inform future features, issues trigger an immediate audit and changelog entry, and wishlist ideas feed the sourcing queue so you see that request pop up in a future drop.
