Corrections & Updates

Wrong information is worse than no information. When Pick Right gets something factually wrong, the correction shows up here with a date, what was wrong, and what was changed. No silent edits on substantive errors.

Reader-flagged corrections that turn out to be substantive get logged here with attribution to the reporter (if you want it).

2026 Q2 corrections log

June 10, 2026 — OpenAI S-1 filing date correction

What changed: Our May 22 article on OpenAI's confidential S-1 filing was based on pre-filing reporting from Fortune, CNBC, and Axios that anticipated an imminent filing "as soon as Friday May 22." That reporting was credible at publication time, but OpenAI did not actually file on May 22. The actual confidential filing happened on June 8, 2026 — one week after Anthropic's June 1 filing.

Downstream fixes: The Anthropic S-1 filing article (June 1) originally claimed "OpenAI filed first by 10 days" — corrected to reflect Anthropic filing first. The Claude review TL;DR updated to reflect the corrected timeline.

Why: Pre-filing reporting from credible sources is not equivalent to the filing itself. Going forward we'll wait for filing confirmation before publishing as if a confidential S-1 has been submitted. Both prior articles carry visible correction notices linking to the June 8 actual-filing coverage.

May 4, 2026 — Site-wide editorial cleanup

What changed: 41 thin templated tool summaries removed entirely. 168 short comparison pages removed entirely. Sitewide content quality threshold raised: every published review is now long-form (1,000+ words) editorial. The previous practice of publishing "quick summary" placeholder pages for tools without full reviews was ended; tools are either covered substantively or not at all.

Why: The thin templated content was dragging down site-wide quality and reading as low-effort to both readers and quality classifiers. The fix was deletion, not paper-over expansion.

May 4, 2026 — Six new long-form comparison articles

What changed: Added six substantive comparison pages (Claude vs ChatGPT, Cursor vs Claude Code, Midjourney vs Nano Banana Pro, Claude Code vs OpenAI Codex, Runway vs Veo 3, Sierra vs Decagon). Each is 1,500-2,000+ words of original analysis per pair. The old templated comparison pages this replaces were removed in the same update.

May 4, 2026 — 10 short reviews expanded

What changed: Figma, Motion, Gumloop, Reclaim AI, Leonardo AI, Todoist AI, CapCut, Descript, HeyGen, and Canva reviews expanded from 400-540 words to 1,400-1,800 words each with substantive added analysis on use cases, pricing trade-offs, and competitor comparisons.

May 4, 2026 — Three news articles published

What's new: Pentagon AI procurement (May 1) covering Anthropic's exclusion. Meta Muse Spark launch (April 8 retroactive coverage). Decagon $4.5B valuation (May 4). All cross-linked to affected tool reviews.

May 2, 2026 — DeepSeek V4 Pro 75% promotional cut

What changed: Added news coverage of DeepSeek's promotional pricing cut (April 27 - May 5, 2026) plus permanent 90% reduction on cache-hit input charges. Updated DeepSeek review with new pricing context.

May 1, 2026 — Microsoft Agent 365 launch coverage

What's new: Microsoft Agent 365 launched with $15/user/month standalone pricing. Cross-linked to Sierra and Decagon reviews as the new enterprise governance layer.

April 30, 2026 — OpenClaw and Hermes Agent reviews added

What's new: Added long-form reviews of OpenClaw (most-starred GitHub repo of 2026 at 347K+ stars) and Hermes Agent (open-source agent breakout). Both with security caveats — 9 CVEs disclosed for OpenClaw in March 2026.

April 26, 2026 — Sora shutdown coverage

What's new: Covered OpenAI Sora's web/app shutdown (April 26, 2026) and API discontinuation timeline (September 24, 2026). Updated Runway, Veo 3, Kling reviews to reflect the post-Sora video generation landscape.

April 24, 2026 — Google–Anthropic $40B investment coverage

April 23, 2026 — GPT-5.5 launch coverage

What's new: Covered OpenAI's GPT-5.5 launch with native desktop control, FrontierMath Tier 4 lead, and Codex token efficiency improvements. Updated ChatGPT and OpenAI Codex reviews accordingly.
