How We Test AI Marketing Tools
Most review sites copy features from press releases. We run real campaigns, spend real money, and tell you what actually works.
Our Testing Process
Real Campaign Testing
We don't just read feature lists. We run actual ad campaigns with real budgets ($500-1000 per tool) and measure CTR, CPC, and ROAS.
Independent Testing
We purchase our own subscriptions. No free review units. No special access. We test what regular users get.
Multiple Users
Each tool is tested by at least 3 people: a media buyer, a content creator, and a non-technical user. Different perspectives, honest ratings.
Long-Term Use
We use each tool for 30+ days before reviewing. First impressions are misleading. Real workflows reveal the truth.
Quantitative + Qualitative
We measure numbers (CTR, time-to-first-draft, cost-per-video) AND judge quality (realism, brand fit, emotional impact).
What We Measure
📊 Quantitative Metrics
- • CTR on real ad campaigns
- • Time from input to finished output
- • Cost per video / per copy piece
- • Output volume per hour
- • Learning curve (time to first result)
🎯 Qualitative Ratings
- • Output quality (realism, persuasiveness)
- • Brand voice consistency
- • Ease of use for non-technical users
- • Emotional impact and engagement
- • Value for money vs. alternatives
