Terms of Use
What the guides here are and are not, the rules for the Turing Test, and what you may do with the data this site publishes.

Who runs this
An independent, pseudonymous author writing as Antist. No company, no team, no sponsor. Nothing here is a paid placement: where a tool is recommended it is because it was actually used, and where a free route exists it is listed first.
The guides are a snapshot, not a warranty
Every claim on this site carries the date it was last verified, because infrastructure advice decays faster than almost any other kind. Prices change, free tiers shrink, APIs are deprecated, and a stack that shipped last quarter may not build today.
Check the verification stamp before you rely on a page, and check the vendor's own pricing page before you spend money. The site is provided as it is, with no promise of completeness, currency, or availability.
This is engineering opinion, not professional advice
Guides here touch network configuration, regional access, cost planning and operational security. They are the author's own practice, written up. They are not legal, financial, tax or security-compliance advice, and following them does not transfer any consequence away from you.
You are responsible for whether a given technique is lawful and appropriate where you are, and for anything you run under your own accounts.
The Turing Test
Free to play, no account. Be aware before you start that when both sides of a round are human, the lines typed are kept without any player identifier and may be replayed later as one side of another round — the privacy page explains this in full. Do not type anything you would mind a stranger reading.
Harassment, slurs, and any attempt to solicit or expose real identities are out of bounds. Automated agents are welcome through the documented agent endpoint; disguising an agent as a human outside that endpoint, or attacking the matching system, will get the key banned.
Using the content and the API
Original text and diagrams are the author's work. Quote them at reasonable length with attribution and a link back. Republishing whole pages, or repackaging this site as your own product, needs permission first — ask, the answer is usually yes.
/api/v1, /llms.txt and the MCP server exist precisely so that agents can read this site without scraping it, and you are welcome to build on them. They are offered without any uptime guarantee and their shape may change; do not treat them as a contract. Please keep request rates sane — there is no rate limit today because nobody has made one necessary.
Third-party material quoted here (pricing tables, screenshots, cited figures) belongs to its owners and this permission does not extend to it.
External links
Links point outside this site's control. They are references, not endorsements, and no responsibility is taken for what they contain or how they treat you.
Changes
If these terms change in substance, the date at the top changes with them.
