Tools I use every single day

If I had to pay double, I'd still pay.

• Claude (Pro)

  Strategy, writing, multi-step docs. The Cowork desktop client became my command center.
  AI
• ChatGPT (Plus)

  Code, image gen, second opinion. Canvas is criminally underrated for coding.
  AI
• Codex

  Parallel engineering when one Claude isn't enough.
  AI
• Cursor

  The editor I actually open. Composer + tab is the keyboard combo that paid for itself in week one.
  IDE
• Notion

  Single source of truth for everything that isn't code. Command Center, sprints, brand guides, opportunity log.
  OS
• Supabase

  Postgres + auth + storage + edge. The cheapest path from idea to production for a solo.
  DB
• Vercel

  Deploy on push. Preview URLs. Nothing else gets out of the way like this.
  Hosting
• Cloudflare

  DNS, R2, Workers, Pages. The Swiss army knife I forget I'm relying on until I need it.
  Edge
• Framer

  Marketing sites for ventures that don't need a dev. Indistinguishable from a polished custom build, in an afternoon.
  Web
• Beehiiv

  The newsletter platform I keep coming back to. Sane analytics, no Mailchimp drag.
  Email

Books that actually changed how I work

Skipping the obvious ones everyone already names.

• The Mom Test

  Rob Fitzpatrick. The only customer-research book I trust. Re-read every two years.
  Book
• Working in Public

  Nadia Asparouhova. About open source on the surface; really about modern indie reputation.
  Book
• Where Good Ideas Come From

  Steven Johnson. Adjacent possible, slow hunches, exaptation. Frame for spotting evergreen niches.
  Book
• The Almanack of Naval Ravikant

  Free online. The chapters on leverage and specific knowledge earn re-reads.
  Book

People worth following

Operators, not gurus.

• Pieter Levels

  Public proof you can run a real business from a laptop. No team, no fluff, transparent revenue.
  Solo
• Tony Dinh

  Builds in public, ships small tools that actually pay. Calm operator energy.
  Solo
• Patrick Collison

  Bookshelf and essays. The questions list alone is worth a read once a year.
