About

I write here as nipponhashi. I use AI tools all day — for writing, research, coding, and the unglamorous work in between — and this site is where I write down what actually works.

The rules here are simple. I only write about things I've used myself. I don't publish a number I haven't checked. When a tool is good at one thing and bad at three others, the post says so. And when something stops being true — pricing changes, a feature disappears — the post gets fixed or taken down, not left to rot.

How this site makes money

Some links are affiliate links, and pages may carry ads. Every affiliate link is disclosed on the page it appears on, and no recommendation here exists because of a commission — plenty of tools I recommend pay me nothing. If that balance ever changes, this page will say so.
