The categories I review, test, and write about.
Writing, coding, image generation, automation, and AI-native workflows.
IDEs, version control, CI/CD, APIs, and developer experience platforms.
Static hosting, PaaS, serverless, edge, and managed infrastructure.
Payment processors, billing platforms, invoicing, and financial ops.
Website builders, app makers, automation tools, and visual development.
Auth, databases, email, analytics, CMS, and the glue that holds stacks together.
How I decide what gets recommended.
No vendor pays to be listed. No sponsored reviews. I pick the tools I'd actually use and recommend to a friend building something real.
I don't list ten options and leave you to decide. I pick a winner, explain why, and tell you when the alternatives make more sense.
Affiliate links exist and are always disclosed. They never influence what makes the list. The recommendation comes first; monetisation follows.

Every review on Fewer Tools follows the same process: I sign up, use the tool for a real task, evaluate it against the category criteria, and write an honest assessment. No preview access deals, no "partnerships" that blur the line.
Some links on this site are affiliate links. That means I may earn a small commission if you sign up through them, at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships are always disclosed and never determine which tools get recommended.
