## Practical test

Run the same real task through each tool:

1. Define the task.
2. Record input length and time spent.
3. Save the raw output.
4. Note edits needed before publishing or delivering to a client.
5. Compare cost per finished result, not only subscription price.

## Red flags

- The tool is recommended without a pricing page or last-checked date.
- The review claims it is the best for everyone.
- The review ignores privacy, ownership, or export limits.
- The workflow cannot produce something useful without manual review.
