    This isn't a bad idea, but please, I am begging everyone here. No more AI prose on your websites.

    Please take the time to read and edit. Get rid of the emdashes and the pithy little "The quick start lands here. Nothing expires into a paywall." / "Sign up and pay in one flow — checkout follows registration." zingers that are meaningless or already implied.

    Please stop allowing pragraphs like this:

    > Bounds are per organization — one organization can hold several teams, and its message count is metered across all of them. The monthly allowance is the real limit; the burst ceiling exists only to stop runaway loops and sits far above a normal day’s work.

    to appear on pages where you expect humans to read them. They are worse than useless to read.

      Thanks for the feedback. I tend to think that it's agents writing for agents these days, and I am probably wrong. Fixed your examples.

        You are probably still writing for agents. It's more than likely these constant "AI smell" insults on HN are simplY themselves agents scanning posts for any AI smell simply because it gets upvotes to post such slanders.

          We KNOW that people don't like reading AI's writing. Even the AI performs better with quality content. Why not just... edit the text?

          Did the creator even read the text? If they put real effort into the product, they would have also probably cared about how that product is presented. This shows me that they don't, so I'm not going to read it, and I'm certainly not going to buy it.
