What's the deal with all the different USB fast-charging standards?

I have a laptop that charges via USB-C Power Delivery and a phone and battery bank that use Qualcomm Quick Charge.

But when I look for chargers it appears they're kind of all over the place. I want a charger that has a PD out and maybe 2-3 QC outlets.

Aukey with PD but with "AiPower Adaptive Charging"? So it won't do fast charging with Qualcomm QC phones?

Anker with PD but with "Anker PowerIQ 2.0"?

What's the deal? Will QC phones just charge at regular speeds @ 5V when connected to PowerIQ and AiPower?

I would bet its about licenses for each standard.
