RTINGS.com is a review website that publishes reviews, ratings, and comparisons of technology and consumer products. It was founded in 2011 by Cédric Demers in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.[1][2]
RTINGS.com reviews products that are put into categories, using the same benchmark testing across all products within each category. [2][3] These products are tested in-house at a dedicated testing facility in Montreal.
History
editCédric Demers founded the website in 2011 after leaving an engineering position at Microsoft.[3] Originally conceived as a Rotten Tomatoes-esque aggregate website, Demers wrote and published RTINGS.com's first TV review out of his basement.[2] The company expanded into headphones in early 2016 and monitors in 2017, followed by other product categories periodically.[citation needed]
In 2023, they launched an accelerated TV longevity test that received attention from a number of outlets.[4][5][6]
As of 2024, RTINGS.com now occupies an office in Montreal's Mile-End neighborhood, employing over 70 people.[2] They are ranked by Similarweb as the 17th biggest consumer electronics website in the United States.[7]
