Friday Deep-Dive
Six AI image models. One typed sentence. Zero browser tabs.
I just generated six versions of the same image — from six different AI models — in thirty seconds. One typed sentence into Claude Code, no browser tabs. For anyone in your shop building images on deadline — reporters, ad designers, page compositors — that's the difference between "this will take an hour" and "done before deadline."

AP style without the AI mush.
Quadd's AP-Style Proofreading flags grammar, style, and headline issues with accept-or-reject suggestions. It tightens copy without inventing facts, flattening your voice, or turning every story into AI mush. The accept-or-reject part matters: you stay the editor. The AI just catches what a tired second pair of eyes would catch — if you had a second pair of eyes.
