About this English version: it was translated from the German original with AI assistance and checked against the original automatically and by spot checks. The editorial review described on this page applies to the German original texts.
By Seydhan Cakmak · Editor-in-chief · Updated:
We think it is only natural to disclose how our content is made. This page explains in full where we use AI as a tool, where we expressly do not, how every text is checked before publication and where every single image comes from.
Texts: created with AI support, editorially checked and answered for by a named person. Images: no AI, without exception manufacturer product photos or programmatically generated graphics. Data: from official data sheets and the Amazon interface, nothing invented.
Where AI helps, and where it does not.
For us, AI is a writing tool, not an author. It helps turn verified raw data into readable drafts. It does not decide which device gets recommended, and it does not create facts.
What we use AI for
- Wording text drafts based on product data that has already been verified
- Structuring comparisons and guides
- Language editing, shortening and harmonising
- Research preparation and outline suggestions
What we expressly do not use it for
- Inventing technical data, measured values or prices
- Generating customer reviews or star ratings
- Creating or altering images
- The final buying recommendation: that is made by the editorial team
How the editorial check works.
No text appears unseen. Before publication, every draft goes through the same four stages, for substance and not only for form.
Data basis first
The starting point is not a text but the verified data set: dimensions, consumption, noise level and price from manufacturer data sheets and the official Amazon interface. Only then is a draft written.
Fact check
Every number in the text is checked against the source data. Statements that cannot be backed up are deleted, not estimated. We calculate running costs from the energy figures and disclose the assumption.
Editorial sign-off
The assessment of who a device is worth it for and who it is not is set, changed or rejected editorially. That decision lies with a person, who can reject the text at any time.
Named responsibility
Every content page visibly shows its author and the date it was checked. Editorial responsibility lies with Seydhan Cakmak as editor-in-chief, as stated in the legal notice.
Not a single image is AI-generated.
We have evaluated the entire image inventory in full, not by sampling. All 1,049 images come from two sources, and neither is an image generator.
Official manufacturer and retailer images obtained via the Amazon partner interface. Real photographs, used unaltered.
Preview images for social networks, rendered by a script from a fixed text template. Pure typography, no generative model involved.
We deliberately do not label these images as AI-generated, because that would simply be false and therefore misleading in itself. Should we use an AI-generated image in future, it will be marked as such visibly in the image itself and additionally declared as synthetic in the image data.
Legal framework.
Since 2 August 2026, Article 50 of the EU AI Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) has applied. It requires certain AI-generated content to be disclosed.
For AI-generated texts, the regulation expressly provides an exception: the disclosure duty does not apply if the content has undergone human review or editorial control and a named person bears editorial responsibility. Both are the case with us.
We nevertheless label voluntarily and visibly on every page. Transparency is the basis of any buying recommendation, and anyone who hides how they work usually has a reason for it.
The rules on deepfakes in the same provision concern artificially generated image, audio and video content. As we use no AI-generated media, they do not apply here.
Frequently asked questions.
Are the texts on MiniHaushalt.de written by an AI?
Partly, yes. We use AI language models as a tool to create drafts from verified product data. Every published text is then editorially checked, corrected and approved. Responsibility for the content lies solely with Seydhan Cakmak as editor-in-chief.
Are there AI-generated images on this site?
No. All 1,049 images are either manufacturer and retailer product photos or programmatically generated graphic banners from a fixed template. Not a single image comes from an image generator. Should that change, the affected image will be labelled as AI-generated visibly in the image itself.
Are the ratings and technical data genuine?
The technical data comes from manufacturer data sheets and the official Amazon interface and is checked before publication. The score is an overall editorial assessment, not a measured value from controlled conditions. We invent neither measured values nor customer reviews, and we do not show Amazon star ratings at all, because we cannot check them independently.
Does AI content have to be labelled in Germany?
Since 2 August 2026, Article 50 of the EU AI Regulation requires disclosure for certain AI content. For editorially checked texts for which a named person bears responsibility, the regulation expressly provides an exception. We label voluntarily anyway, because transparency is the basis of any buying recommendation.
