About AutoKaam

Last updated: 2026-07-13

AutoKaam is an independent AI field guide run by an Indian operator. We publish sourced reporting, practical tutorials, and clearly labelled verdicts shaped by hands-on evaluation. The site lives at autokaam.com. The angle: most AI coverage in 2026 is written for hyperscalers, VCs, and prompt-engineers. Almost none of it is written for the procurement lead at a 60-person logistics firm trying to figure out whether to roll Claude or ChatGPT to her sales team next quarter, or for the solo builder in Pune deciding between Cursor and Cline. We try to be that second publication.

Who runs this

Aditya Sharma, founder of AutoKaam

Aditya Sharma

Founder & Editor · Delhi NCR, India

AutoKaam is owned and operated by Aditya Sharma, an independent builder and writer based in Delhi NCR, India. Aditya runs the editorial calendar, commissions and edits every piece, ships the engineering, and signs the cheques. There are no outside investors, no advertorial partners, and no paid product placements masquerading as editorial. AutoKaam is part of a small portfolio of self-funded internet products built solo from India.

Editorial decisions are independent of any current or former employer of the owner and are not coordinated with any AI vendor, distributor, or reseller. When Aditya has a personal stake in a product or competitor relevant to a piece, that stake is disclosed inline.

What we cover

The site is divided into four surfaces, each with a distinct editorial job:

  • News, reviewed reporting on AI launches, pricing changes, model releases, regulatory actions, and procurement- relevant moves from US, EU, India, and China-based vendors. Stories are framed from the buyer’s seat, not the developer’s.
  • Tutorials, applied walk-throughs that show, end-to-end, how to deploy a tool to solve a specific recurring SMB problem (lead-routing, contract review, support triage), with reproducible steps, version details, and screenshots where they add evidence.
  • Playbook, 30 cornerstone entries on the tools we actually run on our own stack, with own-take, INR-anchored pricing, when-to-use vs when-not-to-use, and alternatives. Operator-grade, not buyer-guide-grade.
  • AI directory, a comparative reference table for the most-asked tool categories, refreshed when material specs change.

Editorial angle

Our internal frame is “operator-grade.” That means three commitments:

  • Verdict over coverage. Every story ends with a clear take. We do not publish two-sides-to-every-story stenography of vendor press releases. If a launch is a strategic move, we say what against. If a price cut is bait, we say so.
  • Numbers as subjects.Headlines and decks use the actual amount, seat count, latency, or context window when the story turns on it. Vague adjectives (“massive,” “industry-leading,” “game-changing”) are banned in our internal style guide.
  • Named stake. Every story names who loses and who wins from the development being covered. If we cannot name a stake, the story is not ready to publish.

How articles get made (and our AI-assistance disclosure)

AutoKaam is transparent about its workflow because readers deserve to know how the words they are reading came to be on the page.

A story typically starts with a primary source: a vendor announcement, a regulatory filing, an SEC document, a benchmark release, a maintainer’s blog post, a published dataset. From that source, our workflow can use language models to accelerate research synthesis, structure drafts, and enforce style rules. AI output is not publication authority. Releases require explicit editorial review plus the repository's content and build gates. Scheduled publishing workflows are currently disabled, so new material is released through a deliberate manual path.

We do not publish wholesale model output as editorial. We do not invent quotes. We do not fabricate sources. When a model gets something wrong in draft, we correct it in edit. When an error makes it to publication, we correct it with a dated note on the article (see “Corrections” below).

The site uses two canonical bylines: Aditya Sharma for founder-led analysis and AutoKaam Editorial for desk reporting. AutoKaam is a single-operator publication, not a multi-person newsroom, and does not present generated personas as people.

Sources, attribution, and originality

Every news article on AutoKaam links out to its primary source on first reference. When we paraphrase a competitor’s reporting we attribute it inline and link back. When we use a quote that originated in another publication we say so. When a story rests on a single rumour-tier source we label it as such.

Original written content on the site is copyright AutoKaam. You are welcome to quote short excerpts (a paragraph or two) with a clear attribution and a link back to the source URL. Wholesale republishing or full translation requires written permission; email [email protected].

Imagery

Visuals include product screenshots, attributed source imagery, editorial diagrams, and typographic cover cards generated from article metadata. Decorative treatments are not presented as documentary evidence. We do not host reader-uploaded images.

How we make money

AutoKaam is configured to support display advertising through Google AdSense. Google analytics and advertising code loads only after a reader explicitly allows it in the privacy panel. We may add additional monetisation surfaces over time (sponsored newsletter sections, premium tools, paid research downloads); when we do, they will be clearly labelled as such, and editorial coverage will remain independent of any advertiser relationship.

We do not accept paid placements presented as editorial. We do not run sponsored content inside the news flow. Affiliate links, where used, are disclosed at the top of the article and do not influence the verdict.

Corrections

When a published article contains a factual error, a wrong dollar amount, a mis-stated launch date, an attribution to the wrong company, a misquoted source, we correct it on the original URL and add a dated correction note at the foot of the article describing what changed. We do not silently rewrite history. If you spot something to correct, write to [email protected] with the URL and the mistake.

Tips, pitches, and right of reply

We read every editorial tip. The fastest way to reach the desk is [email protected]. If you are a vendor who feels we got something wrong about your product, mail the same address and we will look at it on the same news cycle wherever practical. We honour right-of-reply requests for live disputes when they are sent before press.

Unsolicited PR mass-blasts do not get coverage and are not acknowledged.

Where the site is hosted

AutoKaam is built as a Next.js static export and deployed on Cloudflare Pages, with Cloudflare as the CDN and DNS provider. The source repository is public, and the current release path is explicitly gated while scheduled workflows remain disabled. The site has no logged-in user surface and no comment system. Reader logs and optional third-party services are described in our Privacy Policy.
