About Vaelolab

Vaelolab is an independent publication based in Toronto. We help small business owners figure out which AI and marketing tools are worth their time and money, and how to get common marketing jobs done without hiring an agency.

We write for the people running cleaning companies, salons, cafes, clinics, shops, trades and consultancies: owners who have ten spare minutes, not ten spare hours.

What you will find here

• Tool profiles that say who a tool suits, what it costs and where the free plan stops.
• Free tools and trials, each with the date we checked it.
• Guides to Google, reviews, social media, websites and budgets.
• Comparisons built from published facts.
• Free calculators and checklists.

How we make money

Today, Vaelolab earns money from two paid services: the Business Health Report and done for you video ads. We are also preparing paid template packs. In the future we may earn affiliate commissions or show clearly labelled ads. When we do, we will say so on the page and on our disclosure page.

How we work

We use AI tools to help research and draft, and a person checks facts, prices and sources before anything is published. Read the details in our editorial methodology.
