AI Amplifies

AI Amplifies

Practical AI tools, built from real work.

Verified reference material and decision tools for people using AI to run a business. Everything here started as something we needed ourselves, then got finished properly enough to hand to somebody else.

Built and maintained by an operator, not an affiliate site. When we do not know something, the page says so.

No affiliate links, ever Published criteria Free to use Corrections welcome

The tools

Each one answers a single question well. More arrive as we build them for our own work.

Live

AI Capture Register

128 recording devices, apps, and AI agents graded on one question: does audio reach an AI with zero manual steps? Includes products that turned out not to exist, and the reason a market leader only scores Viable.

Which device should I buy?

A guided path through the five deciding rules that returns one recommendation instead of a comparison table you have to read twice.

More, as we need them

Calculators, checklists, and reference tables come out of client work and internal builds. Anything that survives our own use gets published here.

How we work

Reference material is only worth something when you can check it. These are the rules we hold ourselves to, stated in public so you can hold us to them too.

  1. No affiliate links. Not now, not later. The value of a register that says a product does not exist evaporates the moment a commission rides on the verdict. Outbound links carry no tracking.
  2. Published criteria. Every grade names the standard it was measured against. Argue with the standard, not just the conclusion.
  3. Unverified stays labeled unverified. Research has a cost and we do not pretend otherwise. Each entry carries how deeply it was checked, and unsettled entries name the one specific thing that would settle them.
  4. Corrections beat consistency. Our own first pass on the Capture Register contained products that do not exist. We found them, fixed them, and left the wrong entries visible as negative results so nobody wastes time chasing them.
  5. A stated cadence, not a promise. Submissions publish immediately, badged unverified. We clear a batch weekly. We do not claim to review everything on arrival, because that promise breaks.

Who is behind this

AI Amplifies is the tools arm of Dead Simple Digital, run by Just Sturgis.

The background is forty years of spa and wellness operations, which matters here for one reason: everything published on this site gets used in a working business before it gets written up. The Capture Register exists because we needed to know which recorder would actually feed our own transcript pipeline, and the vendor comparisons all measured battery life instead.

If a tool here saves you an afternoon, that is the whole point.
