What the editors look for

    What the provider says in public about how it runs its work

  • Documentation

    Policies, terms and certificates it publishes

  • Buyer support

    How a client can reach it and get help

  • Reliability

    Signs of steady supply or service

  • Fit for Australia

    Whether Australian buyers can use it

The list shows what the editors read for. Nothing is weighted or scored.

Four steps

  • 1

    Reading

    Editors read the provider's own site first, then public business registers.

  • 2

    Listing

    Editors decide which providers go on the register in each category. Providers do not apply.

  • 3

    Notes

    Each listing carries a short note drawn from what the provider's own site shows.

  • 4

    Updates

    The register is published by cycle. A listing can be dropped if the provider's public information changes.

Fees and independence

A category can be empty. No winner pays a fee for inclusion.

Honorees are selected by our editors based on a published evaluation of publicly available information. Notes are opinions drawn from public facts, not lab results or legal certificates.
