FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is AI Tools Guidance?

AI Tools Guidance is a website that explains and compares AI tools. It has a directory organised by category, reviews and how-to guides, and a set of free AI utilities you can use in your browser.

How do I find the right AI tool for my task?

Start with the category that matches your task, such as writing, image or video. Each category page lists the tools we cover, and our comparison and alternatives articles help you narrow the choice.

Are the tools on this site free?

Our own utilities, such as the AI Text Summarizer and SEO Meta Tag Generator, are free to use without sign-up. Third-party tools we review have their own pricing, which we describe in each review and link to so you can check the current plans.

Do I need technical skills to use AI tools?

No. Most AI tools work through a simple text box or editor. Our guides walk through the basics step by step.

Can I suggest a tool or contribute an article?

Yes. Use the contact page to suggest a tool, or see the Write for Us page for guest contribution guidelines.
