AI tools, new models, and what actually works
Tool reviews, new-model breakdowns, and the best builders' work synthesized in one place. Free, cited, no hype.
Made, not commissioned
A character reference sheet, ten scenes, and Seedance 2.0. Generated in April 2026, with no shoot and no crew. This is what the video models can already do.
The library
Deep, first-hand reviews of AI tools after real production use. The credit math, the breaking points, the verdict.
Fast breakdowns when a model drops. What changed, what it costs, whether you should care.
Synthesis of the best builders' work, distilled into playbooks you can run this week.
I track who actually knows AI, then bring the best of their work into one place.
What ships here held up on real work, not what a press release claimed.
Every claim links to its source. No paywall, no funnel.
Fresh off the bench
No weekly noise. The letter goes out when a tool, model, or playbook survives real testing and deserves your attention.
