I asked Jenni for a cited paragraph on the daguerreotype. Every source it cited was a real paper, three of four actually backed their sentences, and a paraphrase took four seconds. The reference list itself is paywalled on free. Final rating: 4 out of 5.

I pasted an 86-word paragraph with seven planted grammar slips into Paperpal's free tier. It caught all seven, rewrote one sentence with Make Academic in about 2.5 seconds, and quietly charged 11 of my 200 monthly edits before I'd accepted a single fix.

I pasted my own 273-word ToolifyNav submitter guide into Quizgecko and got 38 questions in 53 seconds without a single wrong answer key. Then the one free course of the month was gone, the mind map lost five categories, and the question I edited exported with '@' as its answer.

I pasted my own paragraph on the ToolifyNav submit flow into Napkin AI and got a flowchart with the right branches and retry loop in 8 seconds. Then a palette change turned my branch labels white on a transparent PNG, and every free export kept its "Made with Napkin" mark.

I upscaled a 512 px copy of a rainy Buenos Aires frame to 2048 × 2048 with Let's Enhance — Prime in 29 seconds, Gentle in 22, one credit each — then checked both against the real original. Prime invented a face. Every free file carries a watermark.

I signed up for NightCafe with email, typed a rainy Buenos Aires street prompt, and had a 1024×1024 frame back in about 7.6 seconds for 0 credits — then an Evolve run, a Prompt Magic warning, and a pricing page full of upsells.

I liked fifty swatches on Khroma, waited ~48 seconds for the in-browser net to hit ~95% accuracy, then searched pastel and got 24 pairs — Surf #B6D8BB and Persian Blue #242EBB copied with WCAG AA (6.2:1), no account and no card.

LanguageTool scored my seeded ToolifyNav draft 64/100 in about 1.5 seconds. One click on Their→There moved it to 76 — then the free 2,000-character wall made itself obvious.

I fed SciSummary a two-page paper with numbers I knew by heart. The hidden summary got them all right. The free account let me read about one sentence of it.

Email magic-link into Wordtune Free: Rewrite and Formal in ~2–3s, but the first suggestion said “Please provide…” instead of status-page copy. Meter dropped 9→8. Final rating: 3 out of 5.
