How to choose between your matches

• Try before you pay. Give your top two matches the same real task from your week and compare the results.
• Start with one tool. Learning one assistant well is more useful than signing up for five.
• Check privacy settings. Before you paste work or personal information, read how the tool stores and uses your data.
• Check the output. AI tools can make mistakes, so review facts, figures and code before you rely on them.
