I'm building an affiliate site where the #1 recommendation pays me nothing.
Every "best AI tools" list ranks by commission size. Jasper pays ~30% recurring, so Jasper tops every list, even for use cases where a $20 general assistant is plainly better.
So ProvenStacks does the opposite: profession-specific AI stacks where the best tool wins, period. Claude tops our writer stack. It has no affiliate program. That line costs me real money every month and it's the whole moat: nobody optimizing for commissions can copy it without pay cuts.
Every review has a "who should skip this" section. The most profitable thing an affiliate site can tell you is "buy the expensive one." The most *trusted* thing it can tell you is "you don't need it yet."
Eleven profession stacks live at launch: writers, consultants, developers, therapists, teachers, accountants, recruiters, agents, tradespeople, Etsy sellers, video editors. I'm building in public and happy to share numbers as they come.
