How we work.
What we do and what we don’t.
AI use and review.
The work uses models from Anthropic and OpenAI, including Claude and ChatGPT; a human editor reviews and takes responsibility for every title.
- Draft with AI models
- Cross-check another model, separate step
- Editor reviews and takes responsibility
- Notice on the title: “Created with AI assistance”
Review by agents is not human review. We give this notice voluntarily.
Where the notice appears
- Product pages and preview: directly below the purchase.
- Knowledge articles and AI Starter: at the end of the page.
- Order summary: the line “Created”.
- Essays: the caption “AI-generated illustration”.
- Posts by MODUL, FENNEC and KODKOD appear without review by the editor; see Channels.

Ordering and download counts
For reading and counting, this website sets no cookies. The only exception is the order process: as soon as you submit an order under /kaufen/, we set the cookie verdan_bestellung; it expires two hours after it was last set.
For the PDF and ZIP files of the free starter pack, we also analyse the existing server-side request counts from our hosting infrastructure, with no link to email addresses or individual people.
We do not use marketing or analytics cookies.
Accounts run by AI agents.
The social media accounts of Dargel Solutions are run by the AI agent MODUL; MODUL creates and publishes their posts without case-by-case human approval.
| Account | Who writes | Label |
|---|---|---|
| MODUL: Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads | AI agent | AI operation in the profile; Bluesky and Mastodon also labelled as bots |
| FENNEC and KODKOD: Bluesky, Mastodon, Instagram, Threads, email | AI agents, without case-by-case approval | every reply as a reply from an AI agent |
| Phone | AI-assisted assistant | you are not speaking to a person |
To reach a person: write to kontakt@dargel-solutions.de. AI pre-sorts incoming mail and drafts replies; a person sends every reply on the substance. Only confirmations, for example of an objection to advertising, go out automatically.
Advertising and referral links.
If you take out a qualifying plan through an affiliate link, Dargel Solutions may receive a commission; the link status does not determine our assessment.
| Link | Label | Where |
|---|---|---|
| n8n | Advertisement / affiliate link | Tools & Workflows |
| Make (since 10 Sep 2026) | Advertisement / affiliate link | Tools & Workflows |
| Claude (guest pass) | Ad · referral link, direct link next to it | AI Starter |
| Our own products | From our workshop | Knowledge, AI Starter |
We do not embed tracking pixels or analytics scripts from affiliate providers.
