Behind this site is a small software factory: ~30 production apps and a weekly pipeline that scrapes vendor blogs, benchmarks new models, and forces every shiny release through one question — would this actually improve something we run? Most weeks the honest answer is no. That discipline is what these reviews sell you, for free.
The running scorecard across everything ever tried — platforms, models, connectors. Winners, scars, and the ones dropped on sight. Start here.
