Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: March 18, 2026
This Affiliate Disclosure explains how Sidekick Intelligence LLC (DBA Chikoh) earns revenue through affiliate partnerships and referral relationships. Transparency is important to us, and we want you to understand how our recommendations and links may generate compensation.
1. Affiliate Relationships
Chikoh participates in affiliate programs and referral partnerships with various companies and platforms. When you click on certain links on our platform and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may earn a commission or referral fee at no additional cost to you.
Our affiliate relationships may include, but are not limited to:
- Fantasy sports platforms (DraftKings, FanDuel, Underdog Fantasy, PrizePicks, etc.)
- Sports data and analytics providers
- Streaming and entertainment services
- Sports merchandise and apparel retailers
- Software tools and services we recommend
2. How Affiliate Links Work
When we include affiliate links on our platform, clicking those links places a small tracking identifier (cookie) on your device. If you make a qualifying purchase or sign up for a qualifying service within the tracking window, we receive a commission. This does not increase the price you pay — the cost to you is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the provider.
3. Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, AI-generated recommendations, player projections, or analytical rankings. Our AI models and recommendation engines operate independently of any commercial relationships. We are committed to providing objective, data-driven insights regardless of affiliate partnerships.
Specifically:
- AI recommendations are never influenced by affiliate status. Our projection models, start/sit recommendations, trade evaluations, and draft rankings are based solely on statistical analysis and AI modeling.
- We disclose affiliate relationships clearly. When a link is an affiliate link, we will identify it as such where required by law or platform policy.
- We recommend products we believe in. We only participate in affiliate programs for products and services that we believe provide genuine value to our users.
4. FTC Compliance
This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255). The FTC requires that material connections between endorsers and advertisers be disclosed. This page serves as that disclosure for all affiliate relationships across the Chikoh platform.
5. Referral Program
Chikoh offers a user referral program where existing users can invite friends and earn rewards (such as tickets, account credits, or subscription discounts) when referred users sign up and meet qualifying criteria. Referral rewards are subject to:
- Our current referral program terms and reward structure
- Verification that referred users are genuine, unique individuals
- Anti-fraud measures (self-referral, fake accounts, and referral abuse are prohibited)
- Reward caps and limitations as published in the referral program terms
6. DFS and Sportsbook Affiliate Relationships
When Chikoh links to daily fantasy sports (DFS) platforms, sportsbooks, or prediction market platforms, these links may be affiliate links. We want to be clear:
- Chikoh is not a sportsbook, casino, or gambling operator. We are an analytics and intelligence platform.
- Our gambling-adjacent tools (line movement analysis, DFS optimizer, sharp money indicators) are behind a sports whitelist for compliance reasons, but our affiliate relationships with these platforms are separate from our analytical tools.
- We encourage responsible gaming. See our Responsible Gaming page for resources and support information.
- Availability of DFS and sportsbook affiliate links varies by jurisdiction. Links may not appear in jurisdictions where the linked service is not legally available.
7. Amazon Associates and Retail Affiliates
Chikoh may participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and similar retail affiliate programs. As an Amazon Associate, we may earn from qualifying purchases. Product recommendations on our platform (merchandise, books, equipment) may contain affiliate links to these retailers.
8. MCP and Agent Ecosystem
Chikoh's MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools and agent integrations are available through various AI platforms (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, etc.). When our tools reference or link to third-party services within agent responses, these references are based on relevance and utility, not affiliate compensation. Any affiliate relationships within agent-generated content will be clearly identified.
9. Revenue Transparency
Chikoh generates revenue from multiple sources:
- Subscriptions: Monthly, semi-annual, and annual subscription tiers
- Tickets: Pay-per-use credits for premium tools and simulations
- Affiliate commissions: As described in this disclosure
- API access: Developer and enterprise API subscriptions
- Agentic commerce: Execution billing for automated operations
Affiliate revenue is a supplementary income stream, not our primary business model. Our primary revenue comes from subscriptions and direct platform usage.
10. Changes to This Disclosure
We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time as we enter or exit affiliate programs. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
