Tools I use every day.

These are the tools that let me build what most people hire a team for.
If I recommend it, I use it. Referral links below.

Claude

The AI I think with. Strategy, analysis, writing, problem-solving. If I'm working, Claude is open.

Building

The coding assistant behind the websites, automations, and systems we ship for clients. This is how one person builds what used to take a team.

Building

AI-native code editor. Paired with Claude, this is where the actual building happens. Fast, intuitive, and getting better every week.

Meetings

AI notepad that transcribes meetings and enhances your notes automatically. No bot joins the call. I use this for every client meeting.

Writing

Voice-to-text that actually works. Talk naturally and it writes clean, polished text in any app. I draft emails, notes, and docs with this daily.

I use this selectively for research and when I need a second perspective. Different models are good at different things.

Google's AI. I use Nano and specific models for tasks where Google's training data gives it an edge.

Design

Design tool for when I need to mock something up before building it. Quick wireframes, client presentations, visual thinking.

Building

Fast, GPU-accelerated terminal emulator. Clean, minimal, and stays out of the way. Where I live when I'm building.

Infrastructure

Where I deploy everything. Push to GitHub, live in seconds. Every client site we build runs on Vercel.

Infrastructure

Version control and collaboration. Every project, every client, every line of code lives here.

Infrastructure

Domain registration and DNS management. Simple, affordable, reliable.

Operations

Email, calendar, docs. The backbone for client communication and everything that isn't code.

Operations

Project management that stays out of the way. Every client engagement runs on Linear. Fast, clean, keyboard-driven.

Operations

Client wikis, documentation, and CRM. The single source of truth for every engagement.

Design

Quick design work. Social posts, presentations, banners. When Figma is overkill, Canva gets it done in minutes.
