      <p class="bx-hook">We read <em>5,000+</em> AI sources a week. So you don't have to.</p>
      <p class="bx-hero-sub">30+ new AI tools launch every day, plus the posts, the podcasts, the confident takes. No founder has time for that — and every one of them still has to bet on something. We do the reading. You get the decision.</p>

    <p class="bx-eyebrow">How we work</p>
    <h2 class="bx-h2">We don't have opinions. We have data.</h2>
    <p class="bx-lead bx-lead--onDark">Anyone can find five articles that agree with them. That's not research, that's a search query. Three rules keep this email honest:</p>
    <ul class="bx-method">
      <li>
        <span class="bx-method__icon" aria-hidden="true"><svg viewBox="0 0 24 24"><circle cx="11" cy="11" r="7"/><path d="M20 20l-3.5-3.5"/><path d="M8.5 11h5"/></svg></span>
        <strong>We look for what disproves it</strong>
        <span>Confirmation is easy to find and worth nothing. For every claim we go looking for the counter-evidence — and if we find it, it goes in the email.</span>
      </li>
      <li>
        <span class="bx-method__icon" aria-hidden="true"><svg viewBox="0 0 24 24"><path d="M2 12s3.5-6 10-6 10 6 10 6-3.5 6-10 6-10-6-10-6z"/><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="2.5"/></svg></span>
        <strong>We show the whole picture</strong>
        <span>Including the parts that spoil the story. No cherry-picked benchmark, no vendor case study standing in for evidence, no hype and no BS.</span>
      </li>
      <li>
        <span class="bx-method__icon" aria-hidden="true"><svg viewBox="0 0 24 24"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="9"/><path d="M9.5 9.5a2.6 2.6 0 015 .9c0 1.8-2.5 2.2-2.5 3.6"/><path d="M12 17.2h.01"/></svg></span>
        <strong>When it isn't clear, we say so</strong>
        <span>Some weeks the data is thin and the honest answer is "we don't know yet". You'll read that sentence here. It's more useful than manufactured certainty.</span>

        <p>The Briefing is written by Eduard Klein. He's written enterprise software, manages Sales, Marketing and Product Development — and scaled SaaS from zero to up to 8M ARR. Most AI commentary comes from one side of that table. This comes from both.</p>
        <p>That's the whole reason it's useful: the reading gets filtered by someone who can tell you whether something is technically real <em>and</em> whether it's worth your money.</p>

    <div class="bx-faq">
      <details open>
        <summary>How often will you email me?</summary>
        <p>Once a week. That's it. No "quick bonus email", no launch sequences, no drip campaign you didn't ask for.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>What does it cost?</summary>
        <p>Nothing. It's free, and there's no paid tier waiting behind it.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>What does "5,000+ sources a week" actually mean?</summary>
        <p>Research papers, vendor releases and changelogs, benchmarks, earnings calls, founder posts, podcasts, forums and press. 81,518 sources analysed so far, roughly 5,000 new ones every week. Almost none of it survives the filter — that's the point. What reaches you is the fraction that changes a decision.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>Is this just marketing for your consulting?</summary>
        <p>No. Every issue has to be worth reading on its own, or you'd unsubscribe — which is exactly the discipline that keeps it good.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>What happens to my email address?</summary>
        <p>It goes into our newsletter system and nowhere else. We don't sell it, rent it, or hand it to sponsors. You'll get a confirmation email first — the subscription only starts once you click it. Full details in the <a href="/privacy/">privacy policy</a>.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>How do I unsubscribe?</summary>
        <p>One click, at the bottom of every issue. No confirmation page, no "tell us why", no retention email afterwards.</p>
      </details>
      <details>
        <summary>Can I read something first?</summary>
        <p>Yes — the <a href="/blog/">blog</a> is the long-form version of the same thinking, including the experiments we run on our own business.</p>
