Policy
Editorial policy
sudoai.net publishes free client-side tools and a curated set of practitioner playbooks. This page states how we write and what we refuse — so readers, partners, and crawlers get the same story.
Tools-first
The primary product is the browser tools (prompt cleaner, token & cost estimator, comparison checklist). Guides exist to explain workflows around those tools, not to inflate page count.
- Prefer deepening tools (features, UX, export, shareable state) over adding thin articles.
- When we publish a guide, it should map to a job-to-be-done you can do with a tool on this site.
- Cadence: improve or merge existing URLs before shipping net-new long-tail pages.
People-first content
AI-assisted drafting is fine when the result helps a human do a job. We do not mass-produce near-duplicate pages mainly to manipulate rankings (scaled content abuse). Checklists, worksheets, and honest tradeoffs beat “ultimate guide” filler.
No fake “tested” claims
- We do not invent bake-off scores, win rates, or “I tested N tools” leaderboards without a real method.
- Pricing figures are placeholders or dated references — verify against your vendor invoice.
- Comparisons are criteria-based (see the checklist tool), not vibe rankings.
What we will not do
- Nightly mass-publish of near-duplicate long-tail guides.
- Programmatic doorway / compare farms without unique utility.
- Paywalling the free client-side tools.
- Spun rewrites of the same outline under new titles.
Disclosures
