Start with one recurring task. Build a small toolkit around work you actually do.

Our editorial promise

A useful tool should
earn its place.

There's plenty of AI hype. Our plan is to bring a little common sense: try the work, show the results, and tell you where the tool falls short.

  1. 01

    Give it a real job.

    A practical business task, with a clear brief and a usable result to aim for.

  2. 02

    Show the whole picture.

    The output, the mistakes, the cost and the time spent fixing things.

  3. 03

    Be clear about who it's for.

    Explain when we'd use it, when we wouldn't, and any affiliate relationship.

A good place to begin

One task. One tool. Start there.

Pick a job you repeat each week. Try AI on a draft. Check the result yourself.

Content plans

These are editorial outlines for the site. Open a topic to explore.

Writing: a better client proposal

Planned guide: start with fictional client notes, ask for a structured draft, then check scope, deliverables, dates and tone. Show the original notes, first output and human edits side by side. Never let the tool invent prices or promises.

Admin: turn meeting notes into next steps

Planned guide: use a fictional meeting to compare a manual summary with an AI draft. Check every action, owner and deadline against the notes, and record the editing time. Explain what information should be removed before using a third-party tool.

Marketing: one useful idea, three social posts

Planned guide: turn an example business update into three channel-appropriate drafts. Compare clarity, factual accuracy and brand voice, then show how a business owner can edit the drafts without losing their own personality.

Research: compare options without losing the sources

Planned guide: give tools the same business research question. Check whether sources support each answer, identify missing information and compare the work needed to reach a reliable conclusion.

Katteb: the proposed hands-on test

We have not tested or rated Katteb yet. The proposed review will check a practical task from brief to finished output, note intervention and errors, and verify current pricing and referral terms. Any eventual recommendation will depend on those results.
