Tools
What I actually use to ship digital products.
AI & Intelligence
Google Gemini
The most complete for research. My main AI.

Document and source analysis. I give it materials, it analyzes them. Still Google.
OpenAI Platform
Direct access to models and APIs from the developer dashboard.
Google Calendar
Calls, planning, calendars. Gemini Pro pays off across the whole ecosystem.
Handy
Open-source speech-to-text on your machine. Press, talk, paste - audio stays local.
Software & Apps

Devin Desktop
Main IDE for client work. Flow state included.

X (Twitter)
Always up to date on tech. My primary source.
I publish and pick up ideas. Professional networking.
YouTube
Needs a heavy filter. Many people serve crumbs, not real information. Be careful.
Hosting & Infra
