Eliot Byteau

The founder

Hi, I'm Eliot Byteau

AI & SaaS Curator

Trained as a developer, I spent close to a decade building internal tools for startups and freelancers — always with the same obsession: save humans time, not waste it.

With the rise of generative AI, I saw the same story repeat itself: tools that look brilliant in demos but frustrating in production. I created DigitSelect to share my real-world tests, my honest verdicts, and the stacks I actually use day-to-day.

No marketing agency, no editorial committee: just me, my laptop, and the belief that an opinion is worth more than a product sheet.

Why DigitSelect?

The SaaS and AI world is exploding. Every day, dozens of new tools promise to revolutionize your productivity. But between polished demos and operational reality, the gap is often huge.

I've spent hundreds of hours testing platforms, configuring APIs and dealing with the rough edges of immature solutions. DigitSelect was born from that frustration: the need for an independent curation hub where quality trumps volume.

My approach is surgical. I don't list everything — I curate excellence so you don't have to.

What sets me apart

100% independent

I refuse sponsored content dictated by brands. My editorial line is not for sale.

Real-world tests

I build real projects with every tool before writing a single line. No technical copy-paste.

Full transparency

My reviews always include the flaws and limits of the tools. Perfection does not exist in software.

How I'm funded (transparency)

To stay independent and keep producing high-quality reviews without intrusive ad banners, I use affiliate links.

This means that if you subscribe to a tool through one of my links, I may earn a commission. It never increases the price for you, and it never biases my opinion. If a tool is mediocre, I will say so — whether it has an affiliate program or not.
