AI Disclosure
Every listed practice publishes its position on AI. This page publishes ours.
Last updated: October 9, 2026
The standard
Personal Branding Agencies follows the standard MCG sets for every MASHMAN property: artificial intelligence is the near equivalent of a spotter or personal trainer in the gym. It exists to empower, guide, and help, not to do the heavy lifting of what would otherwise be human judgment. The MCG AI Disclosure (opens in a new tab) sets out the full position.
What AI never decides here
- Vetting. Every application is reviewed by a person against the published seven criteria.
- Reviews. A person reads every review before it publishes. Corrections are limited to spelling and grammar, made by a person, and labeled.
- The PBA Power Ranking. A fixed formula over verified client reviews. How ranking works.
- Find Your Match. Fixed, published weights, scored in your browser. How the fit score is calculated.
- Reports. Every report is read and answered by a person.
AI disclosure by listed practices
A published position on AI is one of the vetting criteria. Concealing AI use is disqualifying; using it is not. Each listing shows the practice’s own disclosure in its own words.
