Hi, we're analyst.ai—the buyer's lab for AI software. AI tools make big promises. We test them on real tasks and show what works, what fails, and what's worth your time and money. See the results at analyst.ai. Vendors can't buy the verdict.

analyst.ai — the buyer’s lab for AI software

analyst.ai tells you which AI tool to buy for a task, or whether the ChatGPT you already pay for is enough. See the results for four tasks.

Imagine never arguing about money at home again. Car loan or emergency fund? Just ask your personal agent. We gave Dots @ChatGPT , @grok @bot , @Muse and Instinct 72 family finance questions. All four got the math right. But about 1 in 4 answers left something out: a number, a condition or a source. The biggest gap was in weighing options: 10 of 12 for Dots, 5 of 12 for Instinct. Full review👇analyst.ai/reviews/ai-assist…

Can an AI assistant be your personal financial advisor?

Yes, for everyday money questions: every assistant worked out net worth, savings interest and a monthly savings goal, and got 279 to 290 of ~300 figures right.

Instinct @noahrshinn , you didn’t lose our email test on the basics. You lost it in the extra sentences. You passed 71 of 72 basic checks—same as Dots. But only 11 of your 72 answers were concise. Grok needs to check its opening line. Muse needs real sources. Dots needs to tell people what to do next. You need to find the delete key.#AIAgents analyst-ai-dev.vercel.app/re…

Can an AI assistant read your email so you don't have to?

Yes: every assistant found what mattered on 69 to 72 of 72 email tasks. They differed in how much of the answer you still have to read.

Your turn, Dots @ChatGPT . You came first in our travel planning and personal finance tests. @grok beat you on email. Fine. I'm putting you in charge of my paycheck. Please be normal about it.And show your math this time. #AIAgents analyst.ai/reviews/ai-assist…

Congrats, @grok 🏆 You beat Dots, Muse and Instinct in our email test. The inbox is yours. Then came travel and personal finance. You suggested a bus-to-train connection nobody could make, and quoted deposit-insurance limits from “general knowledge”—no source, no date. Fix those two, and we’ll consider expanding your jurisdiction beyond the inbox. analyst.ai/reviews/ai-assist…

We’re testing personal agents on real-life tasks—research, email, travel, personal finance and more—to find out which one you can actually count on. Dots (@ChatGPT), Grok (@grok), Muse (@Meta) and Instinct (@noahrshinn). One made serious errors in both travel and finance: an impossible train connection, then deposit insurance limits from “general knowledge”—no source, no date.👀 Which one was it? Drop your guess below 👇 We’ll reveal it in our next review. #AIAgents

New review: Every AI tool we tested on marketing copy slipped up somewhere... @ChatGPT stayed close to the facts, but sometimes left internal notes in public copy and ran short on thin briefs. @Jasperaisignup usually met the format, but added unsupported details and sometimes missed product limits. @copy_ai often missed length requirements and left internal fields in finished copy; none of its 6 revisions was ready to ship. @Get_Writer met all 12 first-draft format specs, but added unsupported claims on thin briefs and repeated copy across channels. For more hands-on AI software reviews, head to @AnalystAIlab . analyst.ai/reviews/ai-market…

Can you ship AI-written marketing copy as it is?

Not without reading it first. ChatGPT and Jasper led with 4 of 6 revisions ready to ship; ChatGPT added no unsupported claims on thin briefs.

Every AI copy tool we tested needed a human editor. Are they saving marketers time—or giving them more to fix? We tested @ChatGPT @Jasperaisignup @Get_Writer @copy_ai . Scored on 4 criteria: • Facts • Met the brief • Fit each channel • Revisions Every tool slipped somewhere. Full report next. #copywriting #MarketingStrategy #AI

New review: Is ChatGPT enough for GEO? We tested @ChatGPTapp and 5 GEO tools (@Writesonic @peec_ai @otterlyai @scrunchai @tryprofound) across 9 brands, scoring 54 outputs on 3 weighted criteria, from finding buyer questions to suggesting website fixes.#GEO #AISEO Full report: analyst.ai/reviews/geo-tools…

Can GEO tools tell you what to change so AI mentions you?

Rarely. Of five dedicated GEO tools, only Peec AI produced qualifying website tasks (6 of 9 brands). ChatGPT ranked first at all nine (composite 70.1/100).

Your brand may not need a dedicated GEO tool. We tested @ChatGPT and 5 GEO tools across 9 brands: @WriteSonic @peec_ai @ScrunchAI @profound The result surprised us: ChatGPT ranked #1. Scored on 3 tasks: • Prompt generation (30%) • GEO opportunity diagnosis (30%) • Action recommendations (40%) Full report in our next post.👏
