How we work

Latest, without pretending.

AI changes weekly. We show what is known, what is only claimed, and when it should change what you do.

How sure are we? Seven labels.

We use these labels to distinguish company announcements, observations and tests. A company announcement is not a result from our own testing.

  • Announced

    The company says something changed.

    Worth knowing. Not proof it works well.

  • Observed

    Someone has seen it working, and we say where and how.

    The conditions stay attached.

  • Tested by us

    We ran our own published test.

    We show the model, settings, inputs, how we judged it and the date.

  • Reported by users

    People doing the job told us what happened.

    Useful, but one person's result, not everyone's.

  • Inferred

    A conclusion we drew from named evidence.

    We show the reasoning so you can argue with it.

  • Watching

    It might matter, but not enough to change our advice yet.

    It stays on the list, not in the recommendation.

  • Unverified

    Not enough evidence, or the evidence disagrees.

    We do not build advice on it.

Where facts come from, in this order.

  • 01The company itself

    Release notes, help pages, pricing and policy pages.

  • 02Independent sources

    Reputable reporting, research and published evaluations.

  • 03People doing the job

    Named reports and things several people have seen repeat.

  • 04Our own tests

    What we ran, under which conditions, what happened and what it cannot tell you.

What every page records.

  • Where it came from

    A link to the source for each changing fact.

  • When we checked

    The date someone last read that source.

  • When we check again

    A due date for the next re-read.

  • What changed

    Updates are added to the history, never quietly overwritten.
