What this is

AiStackCorner works out what AI tools cost once you use them for real work.

Not what the pricing page says. What a finished video costs after retakes, what a team of ten pays when the seat count multiplies, what happens to the credits you didn’t use, and where the upgrade path stops buying you anything.

Why four categories

There are directories with thousands of AI tools in them. They’re useful for discovering that something exists and useless for deciding whether to pay for it, because nobody can keep three thousand pricing pages current.

We cover four categories: AI voice and audio, AI video, AI meetings and transcription, AI writing and content. That’s few enough that the numbers on this site can be true on the day you read them.

When one of the four has enough depth to stand on its own, we’ll consider a fifth. Not before.

Who writes it

Andreu. I run a small portfolio of software review sites, and this one exists because the AI tools space has the worst signal-to-noise ratio of anything I’ve written about: opaque credit systems, plans that change quarterly, and a lot of published advice that was true in March.

I’m not a full-time reviewer with a lab. Where I haven’t used a tool, the page says researched rather than implying otherwise. That’s set out in full on the methodology page.

How it pays for itself

Affiliate commission, disclosed on every page that carries a link and explained on the affiliate disclosure page. Every article also names at least one option that earns us nothing, because that’s the only thing that makes the rest credible.
