AI agents are no longer demos. They're closing tickets, sending cold email, writing code, paying invoices, and posting on social — at companies of every size. The pace of new launches is brutal, and most "best of" content online is recycled marketing copy.
AI Runs My Company is an independent editorial site that tracks the agents and platforms moving the needle, with three commitments:
- We're honest about what we've used. Where we have hands-on experience with a tool, the review reflects that. Where we're synthesizing from operator reports and vendor docs, we say so. We don't pretend to have run every product through a benchmark — that would be a fabrication.
- We say when something's bad. The space is full of overhyped wrappers and platforms that look great in a demo and fall apart in production. We name them.
- We update. Pricing, features, and reliability change weekly. Each tool page shows when we last verified it.
How we cover the space
Three lenses: by tool (the canonical product page), by function (what does AI for SEO / cold email / support actually look like), and by use case (how the function shifts inside specific industries).
For the full editorial policy — what "verified" means, our affiliate policy, our conflict-of-interest disclosure — see our methodology page.
How we make money
Some of the tools we cover have affiliate programs and we may earn a fee when you sign up through our links. Affiliate status never changes what we say about a product — if a tool is bad, we say so. If you'd rather not use our affiliate links, skip them; the editorial doesn't change either way.
