My Favorite Tools
A curated list of tools and software I use daily for AI development, content creation, and running my business.
Kit
An email marketing platform built specifically for creators, with powerful automation, landing pages, and digital product selling features. I use it to grow my email list, send newsletters, and nurture my audience with automated sequences.
SimplerLLM
An open-source Python library I built to simplify working with LLMs across multiple providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and more) with a unified interface. It includes features like automatic failover, structured JSON output, embeddings, and mini-agents to speed up AI development.
Contabo
A VPS hosting provider offering the best price-to-performance ratio in the market. I use their affordable servers (starting ~$5/month with generous RAM and NVMe storage) to host all my apps and services with Coolify.
Coolify
An open-source, self-hosted PaaS alternative to Heroku and Vercel. I use it to deploy and manage all my apps, databases, and services on my own servers with automatic SSL, Git integration, and one-click deployments.
Digital Ocean
A cloud hosting platform known for simplicity and developer-friendly infrastructure. I use it for fast deployments and testing new projects quickly with their affordable Droplets before moving to production on Contabo.
Claude Code
Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal, understands your entire codebase, and helps you code faster through natural language commands. I use it to automate routine tasks, debug complex issues, handle git workflows, and build features end-to-end without leaving the terminal.
Canva
A design platform for creating graphics, thumbnails, presentations, and social media content without needing design skills. I use it daily for YouTube thumbnails, carousel posts, and quick visual assets for my courses and content.
Camtasia
A screen recording and video editing software designed for creating tutorials and educational content. I use it to record and edit my course videos, add annotations, and produce polished instructional content quickly.
Notion
An all-in-one workspace for notes, databases, project management, and documentation. I use it to organize my content calendar, plan courses, manage projects, and keep all my business knowledge in one searchable place.
