How we test
A measured test at Lezzwork has four parts, and all four are public.
- 01
Fixed inputs
Every test runs on a dataset we publish before the test: synthetic emails, invoices, meeting notes or records built to look like a small business's real data without containing anyone's real data. You can download it from the article and run the same test yourself.
- 02
A rubric written first
We decide what "correct" means before running anything: fields to extract, categories to assign, actions to produce. The rubric is in the article. We do not change it after seeing results.
- 03
Scored outputs
Each tool's output is scored against the rubric. We report the score, the failures, the time it took and what it cost. Where a tool has a free tier or a trial, we say which one we used.
- 04
Limitations left in
A test on twenty emails is a test on twenty emails. We say what the test cannot tell you, and we date every check because tools change.
Datasets
Every dataset is synthetic: no real people, companies or invoices. Files are small and plain (TXT, CSV, JSON, Markdown) so they open anywhere. Download, run the same test, compare.
What we do not do
- Call something "best" without a comparison set and a rubric.
- Quote prices or limits we did not check near publication.
- Present desk research as a test. Articles say "tested" only when we ran it.
- Give medical, legal, tax or investment advice.
