Hands-on tests

Platform reviews

The same checklist for each service: we signed up, used the product, then scored what we saw — not what the landing page promised.

How we evaluate

Marketing copy is treated as a claim, not a fact. We log in, try chat, pictures, voice and settings, then compare that to what the site said we would get.

  • Customization options
  • Interaction quality
  • Privacy and security
  • Usability
  • Pricing and value
