Why the ESS Standard Exists
One Filter.
No Exceptions.
Every product in The Performance Database is evaluated against four criteria: evidence strength, professional adoption, value for serious amateurs, and honest limitations. All four. Every time.
Affiliate relationships are disclosed on every product card. They never change the Verdict. A 🔴 product that pays for a sponsorship is still a 🔴 product.
The goal isn't a transaction. It's a resource that compounds in value over time — getting sharper as the database grows, not softer as the sponsorship list does.
