ClaudeAI.Guide is an independent, practitioner-run publication about Anthropic’s Claude AI. We use Claude every day — the web app, the desktop apps, Claude Code, and the API — and we write about what we actually find: what works, what doesn’t, what it costs, and how it compares to the alternatives. If you’ve ever wanted the answer a colleague would give you rather than the one a landing page would, that’s the gap this site exists to fill.
We Are Independent
ClaudeAI.Guide is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic PBC. We have no commercial relationship with Anthropic or any other AI vendor we cover. Nobody pays for coverage, placement, or a favorable verdict — and if that ever changes, we will say so plainly on the page where it applies. Our opinions are our own, formed at the keyboard.
Our Editorial Standards
A few rules govern everything we publish:
- Hands-on testing. We don’t summarize press releases. Claims about how Claude behaves come from using it ourselves, on real work.
- Dated updates. AI products change fast. Every article shows both its published date and its last updated date, so you always know how fresh the information is.
- Corrections, promptly. When a verified error is reported, we fix it and reflect the fix in the article’s Updated date. You can reach us at [email protected] — corrections jump the queue.
- No marketing fluff. If a feature is mediocre, we say it’s mediocre. If a plan isn’t worth the money for your use case, we say that too.
- No pay-for-coverage. We accept no payment, free subscriptions, or other consideration in exchange for reviews or rankings.
The full methodology behind that testing — our model testbed, how comparison tasks are chosen, and what our ratings do and don’t mean — is documented on our how we test page.
What We Cover
The site is organized into nine sections, each with its own landing page:
- Guides — foundational explainers, from first login to model selection.
- Prompts — tested prompt libraries for coding, writing, business, and more.
- Comparisons — Claude against ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, and the rest.
- API — developer guides, pricing breakdowns, and integration tutorials.
- Use Cases — how Claude fits into real workflows: Excel, coding, research, teaching.
- Status — outage tracking and incident history.
- FAQ — direct answers to the questions people actually search for.
- Alternatives — honest looks at what else is out there.
- Reviews — long-term, hands-on verdicts on Claude’s models and plans.
How We Keep It Current
Anthropic ships changes constantly — new models, new pricing, new features. We track those releases, re-test the affected workflows, and revise articles rather than letting them rot. When a piece is updated, its Updated date changes; when something we recommended is no longer the right call, we rewrite the recommendation, not just the date.
