The PolyBuzz AI Editorial Team
Last updated: 7 July 2026
Names matter. Coverage you can trust needs a person standing behind it, not a faceless byline, so here is who researches, writes, and edits everything you read on PolyBuzz AI.
Melissa Blake, Writer & Analyst
Harper leads our coverage of AI character chat, roleplay, and AI companion apps. Her background is in consumer technology and generative AI, with a particular focus on how these tools handle personality, memory, and above all data. She wrote the main PolyBuzz AI guide, and the same discipline runs through everything on the site: every claim about market size, safety, or popularity is traced to a named source before it is published.
Harper spends real time inside the products she covers, working through the free tier the way any reader would and paying for the plans that need a closer look. When she writes about privacy risk, she has read the policy in full; when she cites a study, she has read past the press release. Her aim is simple: give an adult reader enough honest detail to decide quickly and without regret.
How the team works
We keep the process deliberately human. AI tools may help with early drafts or research, but nothing reaches a reader without a person writing it, checking it, and standing behind it. A second read happens before anything goes live, and coverage is revisited on a rolling cycle because an app that looked solid in spring can quietly weaken its data terms by autumn. The full standards we hold ourselves to are set out in the Editorial Policy.
Independence
PolyBuzz AI is funded by affiliate commissions, and we say so plainly on the Affiliate Disclosure. That funding never decides a verdict. Coverage is written first and commercial links are added afterwards, only to products we would recommend to someone we know. The limits of what our coverage can promise are spelled out in the Disclaimer.
