Here's what we learned.
Everyone knows online reviews are broken. What's less obvious is why traditional review sites can't fix it. They're stuck testing one product at a time:
The result: You spend hours researching, but still buy blind.
When 847 people mention 'stops working after 13 months,' we catch it.
Processing millions of data points to find patterns
The result? This combination—AI finding patterns, humans making judgment calls—is what makes our recommendations actually useful.
We don't pretend there's one "best" anything. That's why we created labels that match products to priorities
When cheap is actually good
The $45 vacuum that cleans as well as the $300 one (if you have a small apartment)
The goldilocks choice
Not the cheapest, not the fanciest, just... right. The one we'd buy ourselves.
What people who know buy
The pressure cooker professional chefs use—40% less than the trendy one
Good product, bad timing
Drops to half price every Black Friday. Set a reminder.
We make money through commissions (typically 2-8%) when you buy through our links. We also run ads—but keep them minimal because we actually use our own site.
The commissions don't change what we recommend—we get paid roughly the same whether you buy the $50 option or the $500 one. Sometimes we recommend buying nothing at all.
Our goal is simple: help you buy the right thing the first time. Happy customers come back, tell friends, and everyone wins.
