Plain-English guides to the AI tools that actually help you work Wednesday, 11 November 2026

Editorial Policy

Our goal is simple: give readers accurate, useful and honest information about AI tools. This page explains how we do that.

How we test tools

Before we review or recommend a tool, we use it on real tasks such as writing, research, image creation or automation. We note what works, what does not and how long things take. Where we compare tools, we give each one the same tasks and prompts.

Accuracy and fact-checking

We check features, prices and claims against official sources and link to them where helpful. If we cannot confirm something, we say so or leave it out.

How we use AI ourselves

We may use AI tools to help with research, outlines or editing, as many writers now do. Every article is checked, edited and approved by a human editor, and the opinions, tests and conclusions are our own. We never publish AI output without review.

Independence

Advertisers and affiliate partners have no say in what we write. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

Updates and corrections

AI tools change fast, so we review and update important articles regularly. Updated articles show the date of the last update. If you spot an error, please tell us and we will fix it quickly.
