Evidence before rankings

The existing gallery proves that particular Donatello outputs were generated. It does not compare equal prompts and attempt counts across providers. The platform comparison pages document features and licences. Neither is relabelled here as a measured quality benchmark.

This protocol release makes the next experiments inspectable before execution. Image testing needs an enrolled model cohort and approved generation budget. Reference testing also needs cleared source assets. A protocol alone cannot answer which tool makes the best image.

Later phases—not live tests

Spanish/English voice, text-to-video, image-to-video, faceless YouTube, music and complete-ad workflows remain future tracks. Native-audio video will be separated from silent video; provider voices from controlled voice; and instrumental music from songs. Public voting and measured leaderboards are not active.
