AI Compass
Korte oordelen over agents, vibe coding, video, beeld, tekst, SEO, GEO en automatisering. Eenvoudig, met de afweging erbij.
Assistenten die tools gebruiken, een taak volgen en het werk teruggeven ter controle.
Editors en generators voor mensen die de wijziging beschrijven en daarna de diff lezen.
Generators, avatarstudio's en stemtools in een videowerkstroom.
Modellen voor stilstaande beelden, voor art direction, marketing en teams die een API nodig hebben.
Schetsen en herschrijven in een chat, of in de notities die je al bijhoudt.
Onderzoekssuites en on-page briefs voor klassiek zoeken.
Hoe antwoordmachines je citeren, en de tools waarmee je dat bekijkt.
Koppel apps, voeg een AI-stap toe en kies hoeveel je zelf host.
Eén redactionele suggestie per gebruik. Die plekken zijn niet betaald.
The best default for long documents and careful agent-style work. Easier to steer than most chats, and less of a do-everything platform than ChatGPT.
Free tier and paid Pro, team, and enterprise plans.

The editor most people mean by vibe coding: you describe the change, it edits the repo, and you review the diff.
Free hobby tier and paid editor plans.
Deze notitie is nog niet in het Nederlands, dus je leest Engels.
The broadest well-known video suite: generate, edit, and iterate in one product. Credits go faster than a demo suggests.
Starter credits, then paid credit plans.

Still the reference for art-directed still images. The workflow is less convenient than a normal app, and it is a paid product.
Paid plans. Do not count on a lasting free tier.

Deze notitie is nog niet in het Nederlands, dus je leest Engels.
On-page briefs and a content score for classic SEO. It will not tell you whether ChatGPT cites you. Use it for search pages, not as a GEO tool.
Paid plans, with limited free access.

A research box that shows sources beside the answer. Use it to see how an answer engine cites the web. It will not rank your site by itself.
Free tier and a paid Pro plan.

The automation pick when you want self-hosting, custom code, and AI steps in one workflow. More setup than Zapier.
Open source and free to self-host. Paid cloud plans if you do not want to host it.

Beeld
The practical pick when you already pay Adobe and you want the company's training-data claim in writing. Pure art direction still trails Midjourney and Flux.
Credits included with some Adobe plans, and also sold on their own.
SEO · GEO
The research suite for links, keywords, and competitive pages. Expensive. Some plans add reports about AI answers; treat those as a supplement to looking yourself.
Paid research suite. A limited free webmaster view exists.
Tekst · Agenten
The default general assistant. Broad enough for everyday writing and light tool use, and less predictable than Claude when a long edit has to stay careful.
Free tier and paid individual, team, and enterprise plans.
Tekst · Agenten · Vibe coding
The best default for long documents and careful agent-style work. Easier to steer than most chats, and less of a do-everything platform than ChatGPT.
Free tier and paid Pro, team, and enterprise plans.
Vibe coding
The editor most people mean by vibe coding: you describe the change, it edits the repo, and you review the diff.
Free hobby tier and paid editor plans.
Agenten · Automatisering
An on-call agent that starts the moment an alert fires, digs through telemetry and code, and hands you a fix as a pull request.
Part of Cognition's paid Devin plans; sessions draw on Devin usage limits.
Video
The default for realistic voiceover and voice cloning. Pair it with a video tool. Cloning a real person without permission is not a feature.
Free tier with a monthly character limit, and paid plans.
Beeld
The right pick for teams who want image generation in their own product or on their own machines. The wrong pick if you want a polished consumer app.
API pricing and a playground. Some weights are published to run yourself.
Tekst · Beeld · Agenten
Worth opening when the work already lives in Google, or when you want image generation in the same chat. Not the first pick for code or a long edit.
Free tier; higher limits sit inside Google's paid AI plans.
Vibe coding
The lowest-friction assistant if you already live in VS Code, Visual Studio, or a JetBrains IDE and on GitHub. Strong inline completions; the agent mode follows Cursor rather than leading it.
Free tier and paid individual and business plans.
Agenten
A speech-to-speech model for voice agents that tops a third-party index at the same price as its predecessor.
Usage-based API pricing per minute of conversation.
Video
The practical pick for avatar and spokesperson videos, translation, and lip-sync. It is not a cinematic generator. Get consent before you clone a face or a voice.
Trial credits and paid plans.
Beeld
The image model to try first when the picture must contain readable text: posters, thumbnails, simple layouts.
Free tier with limits, and paid plans.
Tekst · SEO
A marketing workspace with brand voice and campaign templates. Useful when a team wants process around copy. Individual writers usually get more from Claude or ChatGPT.
Paid plans aimed at marketing teams. Expect a trial, not a large free tier.
Video
Strong text-to-video and image-to-video. Often the one to compare with Runway on motion. The account and the interface can be less convenient.
Free tier with limits, and paid credit plans.
Agenten
A library for building agents as explicit graphs, not a consumer app. The right pick for engineers shipping agents in their own product.
Open-source library. You pay for the models, and optionally for LangSmith.
Automatisering
Visual automation with more control over branching than basic Zapier, usually at a lower price. The learning curve sits between Zapier and n8n.
Free tier with operation limits. Paid plans by usage.
Beeld
Still the reference for art-directed still images. The workflow is less convenient than a normal app, and it is a paid product.
Paid plans. Do not count on a lasting free tier.
Automatisering · Agenten
The automation pick when you want self-hosting, custom code, and AI steps in one workflow. More setup than Zapier.
Open source and free to self-host. Paid cloud plans if you do not want to host it.
Agenten · Automatisering
A cost controller for agents: it moves suitable calls to smaller models, caches repeats and stops runaway loops.
Free monitoring tier; paid plans take a share of measured savings, with a monthly minimum.
Tekst
Worth it when the notes already live in Notion. A weak standalone writing tool if they do not.
Included with some Notion plans, or sold as an add-on. Check the current plan table.
Vibe coding
Lets an agent answer with a real interface, built from your own components, instead of a wall of text.
Free and open source under the MIT licence.
GEO · Tekst
A research box that shows sources beside the answer. Use it to see how an answer engine cites the web. It will not rank your site by itself.
Free tier and a paid Pro plan.
Video
The broadest well-known video suite: generate, edit, and iterate in one product. Credits go faster than a demo suggests.
Starter credits, then paid credit plans.
SEO · GEO
The other full SEO suite, overlapping Ahrefs. Pick one. Some plans include AI-answer reporting; confirm it on the pricing page before you buy for that reason.
Paid research suite, with a limited free account.
SEO
On-page briefs and a content score for classic SEO. It will not tell you whether ChatGPT cites you. Use it for search pages, not as a GEO tool.
Paid plans, with limited free access.
Vibe coding
The fastest way to get a React and Tailwind interface from a prompt, tied to the Vercel stack. A weak choice for backend logic or a design system it has not seen.
Free tier and paid credits.
Vibe coding
An agentic IDE in the same class as Cursor. Try it when you want a second opinion on the editor workflow, on a real repository.
Free tier and paid plans. The quota model has changed before.
Agenten · Automatisering
A bouncer for your agents: it holds risky tool calls until the right person says yes, and waves routine ones through.
Open source, plus a hosted version.
Automatisering
The shortest path from one app event to another. It gets expensive at volume and awkward when the logic is really code.
Free tier with task limits. Paid plans by usage.
