The launches getting real attention, compared with the tools you already pay for.

Launches & Reviews covers the software launches getting real attention and compares them with the tools you already pay for. Every review covers who built it, what it does, what it costs and what's broken or missing, with sources linked. Company numbers are labelled as company claims. Sponsored posts and affiliate links are always labelled.

How every story is checked

1. Research starts from primary sources: filings, company releases, official documentation, papers and government data.
2. Every person, company, product, place and number needs a primary source or two independent ones before it can appear.
3. A separate fact-check pass, which did not write the draft, re-checks each name and number against its source. A story that fails is held, not published.
4. Prices, salaries, scores and rankings carry an "as of" date. Company and lab claims are labelled as theirs.
5. We never claim hands-on testing we did not do.

Research, drafting and fact-checking are assisted by AI tools working under these rules. Sources are listed at the end of every story.

Corrections

When we get something wrong we fix it and add a dated correction note to the top of the story, saying what changed.
