Tom's Guide Relaunches With AI Shopping Tools and a Real‑Time Homepage

The overhaul aims to speed decisions using expert advice powered by AI.

Overview

  • Tom's Guide rolled out a redesigned site Wednesday in what editor in chief Mark Spoonauer called the biggest relaunch in its history.
  • The homepage now features a live feed for breaking consumer tech news with staff reactions and a panel that streams the site's most‑viewed TikTok unboxings and tests.
  • AI tools debut with Product Finder, which scans Tom's Guide reviews to surface editor picks and prices for natural‑language prompts such as “best OLED TVs under $1,000,” and it currently works only for TVs.
  • A new Leap‑O‑Meter lets users enter the device they own and the model they want to buy, then returns a Leap Score that sums up meaningful upgrades and pulls in current deals.
  • Tom's Guide Club expands with exclusive Live Q&As with staff experts, a relaunched daily newsletter, and new specialty emails, with added social push through dedicated Instagram and TikTok pages.
