We never invent
If opening hours, a price or an address cannot be confirmed, it is left out.

The editor
Pixer
A Korean travel editor who has traveled and documented countries across Asia, Europe, the Americas and Oceania — and keeps traveling, adding to this site with every trip.

How one guide gets made
AI keeps coverage broad and fresh; data and people do the checking and the judging. Tap a step.
1 · Data
Collect live data
Whether a place is open right now, and its hours, rating and address, come from live sources. Which sources we use is public on the methodology page.
What this step guarantees
- Only places confirmed open and well rated become candidates
- Anything that cannot be confirmed is dropped at the start
2 · AI
AI writes a draft
AI turns the checked facts into a readable first draft in plain language, so we can cover many countries and keep them current.
What this step guarantees
- Prices, hours and addresses come from step 1, not from the model
- Every guide is labeled as AI-assisted
3 · Data
Check against live data
Automated checks compare the draft with the source data: names, numbers, dates, photos. A draft that fails is held back, not published.
What this step guarantees
- A wrong place, a mismatched photo or an ended event still written as upcoming holds the draft back
- Each photo is checked to show the actual place
4 · Human
Editor review
The editor reads every guide, fixes tone and judgment calls, and removes anything that reads like guesswork.
What this step guarantees
- A person reads every guide
- Firsthand tips only where the editor has actually been
5 · Human + data
Re-check and correct
Places close and prices change. Guides are re-checked on a schedule, events are rewritten once they end, and reader reports are fixed.
What this step guarantees
- Closed places come down
- Reader corrections are applied and the guide re-checked
What AI helps with
- Writing drafts
- Covering many countries, freshly
What AI does not replace
- The editor’s review
- Fact-checking
- Having actually been there

Other questions → contact pageFrequently asked questions
Numbers, sources and how often we re-check are on the methodology page.
Is this written by AI?
Drafts are written with AI assistance, checked against live data, and reviewed by the editor. Every article says so.
Is Pixer a real person?
Yes. Pixer is the pen name of a real Korean travel editor who reviews every guide. We use a pen name and say so, rather than inventing a persona with a fake photo.
Has the editor been everywhere you cover?
No. The editor has been to the places listed above, and only those guides speak from firsthand experience. Everything else is curated from live data and verified — and we say which is which.
What if something is wrong?
Use the correction form above or email us. We fix confirmed errors and re-check the guide.
How is the site funded?
Some links are affiliate links: if you book through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never decides what we write or recommend.
