What is actually in my toolkit.
These are the tools I use day to day and recommend to clients. No sponsored content, no tools I have not used. Some links are affiliate links — if you sign up I may earn a small commission at no cost to you.
Build & Deploy
Vercel
HostingWhere I host everything. Fast, reliable, and connects to GitHub so your site deploys automatically every time you push code. If you are building anything on the web, this is where it should live.
AI Presentations & Decks
Gamma
PresentationsI use Gamma to build client decks, proposals and presentations in a fraction of the time. You describe what you want and it builds a polished deck. Then you edit. No starting from a blank slide.
AI Assistants
Claude
AIMy primary AI assistant for writing, analysis, research and building. Better than most at following context, giving honest answers and not making things up.
ChatGPT
AIStill the most widely used AI tool. Good for general tasks, image generation and a broad range of plugins. Worth having as a second opinion.
Gemini
AIGoogle's AI assistant. Particularly strong when you need it to work alongside Google Docs, Gmail and the rest of the Workspace suite.
Research & Knowledge
NotebookLM
ResearchGoogle's research tool. Drop in documents, PDFs, reports or URLs and it reads everything and lets you ask questions across all of it. I use it constantly for client research and briefing prep.
Voice & Dictation
Wispr Flow
ProductivityVoice dictation that actually works. I use it to draft emails, messages and notes hands-free. Much faster than typing and it handles natural speech well.
