Editorial Policy

These are the rules Charrette AI Room follows when it writes and corrects posts.

Sources

  • Important facts are checked against official documentation or the original source where one exists.
  • Posts link to their sources and give a checked date where the facts can change.
  • Star counts, view counts and search trends are treated as signals of interest. They aren't presented as proof of quality.

AI tools and automated publishing

  • AI tools help with research, drafting, source checks and review.
  • Posts can be published automatically after a separate AI review and a check of how the page displays. Automated review isn't the same as a person reviewing each post, and mistakes are possible.
  • Each post says that AI tools helped write it.

What counts as tested

  • A post says "tested" only when a test was actually run, and it states what the test covered.
  • Invented examples and sample data are labeled as invented.
  • If a tool's documentation was read but the tool wasn't run, the post says so.

Corrections

When a mistake is found, the post is corrected. Significant changes are noted at the end of the post with the date.

Images

Images are original diagrams, AI-assisted illustrations or images cleared for use. Illustrations aren't presented as screenshots.

Ads and independence

Charrette AI Room isn't affiliated with the tools it covers unless a post says so. If ads or affiliate links are added, they'll be disclosed in the post.

How to Clean Messy Excel and CSV Data With AI Without Breaking Your Totals

Image
A cleanup that strips currency symbols and adds everything into one column cannot tell you whether it was right. On a 60-row vendor file I tested on November 15, 2026, that shortcut reported 21,748,113.34 as a single total. The file's real USD total is 51,464.59. The working method separates USD from KRW into two columns. It parses dates with an explicit format list, removes duplicates by invoice number, and compares a checksum against the untouched source. Key Takeaways A currency-blind cleanup reported 21,748,113.34 for a file whose real USD total is 51,464.59, an overstatement of 21,696,648.75. Comparing whole rows as text removed 0 of the 4 duplicate rows. Keying on invoice number removed all four and cut USD by 238.75 and KRW by 2,480,000. One date format read 19 of 60 rows. A three-format parser read 58 and rejected the 2 impossible dates instead of guessing them. DATEVALUE() read only 25 of the 58 valid dates in a Korean-locale sheet, so 33 rows would have vani...

REA for AI Agents: What It Can Prove About an App

Image
REA, short for Reverse Engineer Anything , gives an AI agent tools to inspect software and collect evidence about how it works. It can help answer a concrete question, such as where an export file is created or which function handles a button. The useful part is being able to check the answer. A confident explanation alone leaves you guessing whether the agent found something in the app or filled a gap. For this article, we created a tiny JavaScript example and inspected it with REA. The tool found the file connection, reported no parsing failures, and still left a return value unresolved. That combination is a useful lesson in reading AI analysis. Key Takeaways REA connects an AI agent to software inspection tools. The agent turns their results into an explanation. Start with one feature and a specific question. A complete static scan can still contain unknown values. Keep code ...

TrendRadar AI: Start With a Smaller News Brief

Image
If keeping up with your industry means checking the same sites each morning, TrendRadar can gather and filter their headlines into a report. Start with a few RSS feeds and clear keyword rules, then add AI features when you know what you want them to do. sansan0’s TrendRadar is an open-source news and trend monitor. This article covers that project, including a small test of its English keyword matcher. The useful first goal is a brief you would actually read: relevant sources, a manageable topic and links worth opening. Key Takeaways TrendRadar combines trending lists and your chosen RSS feeds, with optional AI filtering, translation and analysis. Plain keywords match parts of words. In our small test, AI also matched rail and training . The starter rules below use whole-word matches and one exclusion. They were checked with nine invented English headlines. Collection, AI analysis and notification delivery need separate setup. Our trial tested the keyword module, rather t...
