The answer is
on page one
Nichetel is a small research desk that writes reports on AI tools for professional-services firms. Each report covers one job at one kind of firm, compares the tools that do it, and names the one we would choose.
The executive summary and the contents page of every report are free to read. If the summary answers your question, that is fine by us.
Reports
Every report answers a question a small firm actually asks, like which intake tool a five-partner practice should switch to this year.
One job, one kind of firm
Client intake for law firms. Bookkeeping for accountancy practices. Narrow on purpose, so the advice fits the way your week really runs.
The pick comes first
Page one says which tool we would choose and why. The pages after it hold the comparison, the pricing tables and the sources, for when you need to show your working to a partner.
Dated, never evergreen
Each report shows the day it was last edited. That date moves only when someone has actually changed the report.
Edited
Software drafts the first version. A person decides what stays, and says so on the cover.
Drafted with AI, and we tell you
We use AI to gather sources and write the first draft. Every report says that on the page, because you should know how it was made.
Checked by an editor
An editor checks the claims and the prices against their sources, cuts what cannot be backed up, and rewrites anything that reads like a brochure.
Originality-checked before it ships
If a report fails the check, it does not go out. The sources are named at the back.
Who we write for:
If your kind of firm is missing, tell us what to cover next. Requests from people who do the work are the most useful thing we get.

How this compares with the big research firms
The large platforms are built for analysts at big companies, and they are good at that. This table is about what changes when you are a firm of five.

Yes. Every report page shows the executive summary and the full contents list for free. The Research notes are free long-form articles, and each one links to the reports it draws on.

Not yet. Card payment is not set up, and until then we don't take invoices or bank transfers. Use the "Email me when buying opens" link on any report, or write to support@nichetel.com, and we will tell you when buying opens.
No. Reports are digital, so sales are final. That is why every summary and contents list is free to read first. If a report is faulty or not what we described, we put it right; the refund policy explains how.
