Eric Eden (00:01):
Today we are talking about the top 50 AI tools you
need for your AI tech stack.
That's right.
We're going to go into all thetools that marketers, founders
and creators need to grow andautomate processes in their
business.
You got to streamline andautomate and streamline and
(00:24):
automate to drive growth, andI'm going to go through today
and share with you all 50 tools.
I'm going to tell you what theuse case is for them, what their
website is and how much theycost Before we dive into the
details of it.
I do want to share with yousome overall principles that I
(00:48):
think are very important when wetalk about these 50 tools,
because if you just have a bunchof tools, what good is that?
There is definitely a strategythat you need to have in using
these tools together.
So let's talk about that for afew minutes and then we'll jump
into the list.
So why these tools matter?
(01:09):
First of all, they're reallyeasy to use.
You don't have to be aprogrammer, you don't have to be
a professional designer, videoeditor or have any technical
skills to use these.
These are designed for businessusers, and so, because I'm not
(01:34):
a developer by training, I'm nota designer by training I don't
know how to use all the advancedfeatures of the Adobe Creative
Suite.
These tools are great foreasily quickly creating all of
the assets I need to automatebusiness processes and grow my
business.
I think you're going to findthe same.
The second thing to note isalmost all of these tools have a
free version available.
(01:55):
You can try it before you buyit, and I think that's really
cool because before you go inand start spending money on
things, you want to know if it'sreally going to work.
And the third thing is none ofthese tools are really that
expensive anyways.
Most of them range from $10 to$50 a month for the premium
(02:16):
versions of these tools.
They're not going to break thebank, even if you need to use a
bunch of them, but it's allreally cost effective at this
point.
The cost may go up in thefuture they may not, we'll see
but all of this is easy to use,free to try and pretty low cost,
even if you need a bunch ofthese tools.
(02:39):
The next key point is that youcan seamlessly integrate and use
these tools together, andthat's where a lot of the value
comes in for people.
We'll talk a little bit aboutthis as we get into these tools,
but some people like to usesome of the AI tools like
ChatGPT and Cloud together.
Some people like to use ChatGPTand Canva together to create
(03:02):
visuals in Canva and the writtencontent in ChatGPT.
There's a lot of greatcombinations and that sort of
blending and creativity is wherea lot of the magic really
happens, and we'll get into thathere in just a few minutes.
The one thing that I do that Ithink is very helpful is we're
still in the very early days ofthis AI transformation is that
(03:28):
you have to use multiple toolsand multiple AI models.
There's a couple reasons forthat.
It can be a little bitfrustrating you had to pay for
multiple tools if you're usingthem, but there's some good
reasons to do it.
It's not that much money, butthere's some good reasons to do
it.
It's not that much money.
The first reason is is you canbenchmark them against each
other.
Some of them are better thanothers at specific tasks, and
(03:54):
particularly as you get intoChatGPT.
Most people are using the freeversion of ChatGPT.
Once you get to the plusversion, it's just $20 a month.
There gets to be seven or eightdifferent models that you can
use that are slightly better atdifferent things.
The same thing is true withGoogle's Gemini models.
(04:15):
They have a bunch of differentmodels and you have to test and
see which ones work best forcertain tasks.
So the benchmarking is veryimportant.
Also, accuracy they're trainedin different ways so they'll
come up with different answersto the same question potentially
.
So if you check things againstall the different models, you'll
(04:37):
get the best comprehensiveanswer and then you can optimize
the results you get.
So I think it makes sense toreally use all of the top tools
out.
So I think it makes sense toreally use all of the top tools
out there and I'll share thosewith you.
Let's talk a little bit abouthow to unlock massive
productivity using these 50tools.
There's a couple of great usecases just right off the bat
(05:00):
that go across a lot of thesetools Content creation,
marketing, automation forprocesses and marketing, sales
and customer service.
Software development is likemagic.
With AI, you don't have to be acoder anymore.
You can build websites and evenfull apps.
It's crazy.
I'll show you some of thesetools.
(05:21):
Project management andcollaboration tools are also at
the next level.
There's a lot of practical usecases for these tools in your
business.
One of the other biggestreasons is, if you're using
these tools, you can have anunfair advantage over them and
(05:42):
your competitors are not.
You'll be able to work five,six, seven times faster than
them and produce much betterresults, much higher quality.
And so if you can innovatefaster, if you can be more
efficient and you can reduceyour costs, you're going to beat
the competition, and that'sreason enough to figure out what
(06:07):
tools make sense and how toautomate almost every process in
your business.
It makes sense to look and sayhow does AI impact every process
in your business?
As I mentioned, all these toolsare very affordable right now.
You can start small Start byusing ChatGPT.
(06:27):
A lot of people are just doingthat, the free version of it.
That's great.
But then scale and figure outhow to automate and streamline
those processes so that you canspend more time being strategic
(06:48):
and growing your businessinstead of doing administrative
tasks that the AI can do for you.
And then, once you've made thatleap maybe you're using a
number of these tools.
Then really look to optimize itand look how to integrate these
tools together.
That is the maturity model thatyou should be thinking about
with these tools.
(07:08):
I want to point out that thereare ways to get all of these AI
tools to start working togetherin Symfony like an orchestra,
and some of the tools Zapier,makecom are great for doing that
and we'll talk a little bitabout that.
But the real magic comes whenyou start using these tools
(07:31):
together.
Here's a couple best practicesthat apply for all of these
tools and it's very important.
If you don't do these things,you could try some of these
tools and you say, oh, it didn'twork or they're not good.
But here's a couple pro tipsthat will make your testing of
these tools very successful.
(07:59):
You got to give clear direction.
The real secret to AI is you'relike a movie director.
There's a lot of variables youhave to manage.
The better direction you give,the better results you get.
You have to manage the betterdirection you give, the better
results you get.
Period Be specific with yourexpectations.
I think that this is superhelpful.
If you want something to bedelivered to you in a result, in
a column format or a table,tell the AI what format you want
(08:20):
the results in.
Don't expect it to just guess.
You can do that but just don'tget frustrated if it doesn't
give it to you perfectly how youexpect it, iterate and refine.
So this is very important.
I never turn in as an executivework to other executives without
(08:41):
having done multiple drafts ofit.
You never turn in a first draft, so you shouldn't expect that
the first draft of anything AIgenerates is going to be great,
and so what I often do is Igenerate something, then I'll go
in and edit the prompt andtweak it further and get a
better result.
Sometimes, once you get theresults, I will give it back the
(09:01):
result and say I just generatedthis report.
I need you to make this better,tell me how to make it better.
And once you go through anditerate a few times, it will
improve itself.
And part of this has to do withthe fact of there's limits on
the inputs that you can put intoprompts and there's limits on
(09:23):
the outputs.
But if you give it the rightcontext, it'll come back and say
, oh, you should add these threethings that it didn't put in
the first version because itdidn't have room.
But in a follow up prompt it'llgive it to you and then you can
add it.
So iterate and refine.
That's one of the keys towinning.
And then human AI collaboration.
(09:45):
I don't think that we're goingto get to the point anywhere in
the near future where humansshouldn't be in the loop.
It's probably not going to giveyou 100% perfect results, but
if it can generate 80 or 90% ofthe result you need and then you
do a couple of drafts, you'regoing to get to 100% really
quickly and so if you put theseprinciples against these tools,
(10:10):
you'll have a lot of success.
The other main reason to reallyuse these AI tools is to drive
growth.
It's a force multiplier.
You can do the work of multiplepeople if you use these tools.
There's many tasks at marketing, as a founder, as an executive,
(10:30):
that I can do literally fivetimes faster.
And if you can move faster, youcan grow faster times faster.
And if you can move faster, youcan grow faster.
That's the real reason to belooking at these innovative
tools.
They are going to disrupt everyprocess across sales, marketing
, customer success in yourbusiness they will.
(10:54):
I think the biggest hurdle thata lot of people have in
embracing different AI tools isthat they feel the tools are not
there yet or that the AI toolswill not impact a certain work
process that they're working on.
And the reality is, with thebillions of dollars being
invested in AI.
(11:14):
It's going to affect everything.
So just embrace it and figureout how to be a master at it.
That's the best way to havecomplete job security is to
become a master of it, and thenyou can be the one giving the
direction, overseeing it,innovating and it's a lot more
fun than doing the boringadministrative work anyways.
(11:38):
Okay, let's get into it.
Now here's the real fun.
We're going to go through all50 of these AI tools.
I broke them into a number ofcategories just so it doesn't
seem like a huge barrage oftools to look at, because I
think they do have specific usecases and functions tools to
look at because I think they dohave specific use cases and
(11:59):
functions.
So the first group is theactual large language models to
use, and many of you are likelyusing ChatGPT getting started
getting going.
There is probably 95% of peopleare still using the free version
of ChatGPT, which is great thatpeople are getting going on
that, but there's a $20 a monthversion, the plus version, and
(12:21):
there's a $200 a month version,and the paid versions are much
better than the free version andyou get access to a lot more
innovation, including thingslike GPTs, which allow you to
customize and optimize your workfurther.
You can create your own customGPTs.
Then there's other tools likethe Sora, the video AI tool you
(12:46):
get access to with the paidversions.
You get access to projects.
You get access to the operatorAI agent that will complete
scheduled tasks for you at thetop version.
In the pro version that's $200a month, and OpenAI just
released a deep research modelthat's available in the $200 a
(13:09):
month plan.
So you can work your way up toit.
But I would say 95% of peopleare still using the free version
and not really seeing the truemagic of even ChatGPT.
So you should use it andconsider, at the right time,
upgrading to the versions thatyou need.
The other big models are Claude,which is by the company
(13:33):
Anthropic.
Amazon is putting $100 billionbehind this, and so it's pretty
good.
A lot of people would say thatClaude writes more naturally and
writes better code for softwarethan ChatGPT.
It's sort of an arms race.
(13:54):
They keep making it better andthen the other one comes out
with a new model, but thereality is is that they don't
give the same answers.
So benchmarking Claude againstChatGPT, figuring out which
tasks are better for each model,it makes sense you can sign up
for $20 a month for Claude andget the paid version there.
(14:15):
They have a great projectmanagement tool.
One of the things an exampleClaude is better at is it's
better at doing things likeinfographics than ChatGPT.
So there's reasons to belooking at each of these.
Google has been catching up.
Gemini is their offering.
They are on version two of thatand they have a deep research
(14:38):
offering.
They have a number of reallycool AI tools in the Google
Advanced Studio, which is partof Gemini.
You can get onto it for $20 amonth.
Their pricing structure getspretty complicated If you use
the Google workspace for yourbusiness.
(14:59):
There's different combinationsyou can look at there, but a lot
of the tools you can get for$20 a month and the deep
research model they have is veryinteresting.
You give it one prompt it'll go, do 100 queries and write an
analyst report with you thatlooks like it was written by
(15:21):
Forrester or Gartner.
It's pretty awesome.
And so again, I like tobenchmark Gemini against Claude,
against ChatGBT, and see whichgives me the best answer.
And then Perplexity is slightlydifferent.
It's a view of the searchengine.
So instead of querying Googlefor an answer, like people have
(15:45):
for the last 25 years.
You can ask perplexity aquestion and instead of sorting
through a million links to tryto find the answer, it just
tells you the answer.
It's like why don't you justtell me the answer instead of
making me look for it?
And a lot of people reallyprefer that experience.
Not a big shocker, but each ofthese tools 20 bucks a month.
(16:06):
For 80 bucks you can be usingall four of them and the world
is at your fingertips.
So the workflow, automation andintegration I mentioned, there's
really these three tools tolook at.
You can look at makecom, zapierand N8n.
All of these allow you toconnect all of the different AI
(16:27):
tools I'm talking about today.
Together you can createworkflows, you can send data
between them.
I would say, try them out.
Zapier has been around for along time.
Makecom is much cheaper in myview and it gives you a canvas
where you can easily chart outwhat you're trying to do.
(16:47):
So that's my choice in thisgroup.
I think N8n is a newer playerand they have some interesting
stuff.
So have a look at these.
But it's really important to sayhow can we start using this
stuff together instead of insilos?
I think that's very helpful.
As we move on to talking aboutwhat can agents do.
Agents are really multiple AItools working together to
(17:09):
accomplish a task for you.
All right, ai, productivity andcollaboration tools.
I have seven of them listedhere, so there's some really
awesome stuff that you can dowith these tools.
So Lindy AI is a great tool ifyou need an executive assistant.
It can do everything thatexecutive assistants do in the
(17:34):
office for you, from taking thenotes to preparing your schedule
for the day to schedulingmeetings for you.
It really has some powerfulcapabilities.
So when you think about howmuch administrative roles cost
and how much it costs, it's adrop in the bucket.
How much it costs, it's a dropin the bucket.
(17:55):
So have a look at Lindy for thepersonal assistant, executive
assistant type roles.
I think creating great images.
You just need that for a lot ofcontent and marketing work.
I use falai, which will giveyou images from multiple image
(18:16):
models, including Flux, which isone of the best AI image
generation models out theretoday.
There's Julius AI, which is adata analyst capability, so
that's what the use case is.
You can have AI act as yourdata analyst.
That's a pretty awesome thing.
(18:37):
No one loves like sitting theregoing through data for hours.
That's not something peoplelove.
I can't tell you how many hoursof my life I have lost to
creating charts and graphs forpresentations and PowerPoints,
so Graphyapp is a great solutionfor creating the graphs and
(19:00):
business images you need.
I created this presentationusing Gammaapp.
I have wasted thousands ofhours of my career creating
PowerPoint presentations andGammaapp just creates
presentations for you and thenyou can customize it a little
(19:20):
bit as you need it.
It's like PowerPoints alwaysshould have been.
So just use Gamma app for allof your presentations going
forward.
There's no reason to have to besitting there manually creating
presentations and PowerPoint orGoogle Slides.
You can create your own themes,you can pick your own images,
(19:42):
you can pick your own colors.
They have great templates andit just does it.
It's like magic.
So that's a great way to getmany, many hours back in your
life.
If you don't use a tool likeFireflies or Otter to take all
of your meeting notes already,it's a huge productivity boost
(20:02):
because what you can do is youcan do things like summarize all
of your meeting notes for theentire day If you have 10
meetings in a day, like me, orif you have 50 meetings in a
week.
You can summarize all of themeetings for the week and look
across the action items for allof the meetings for the week.
There's some really powerfulthings that you can do there to
be more productive, things that,in a lot of cases, people would
(20:26):
have asked their executiveassistants or colleagues to help
them stay organized with, andyou don't need that anymore.
Just use tools like that.
I use Fireflies, it's great.
I think Otter is great.
There's a number of those tools.
I also just want to call outthat one of the other advanced
tools within ChatGPT is our dataanalysis tools.
(20:47):
They are actually very strong,so, similar to the other tool,
julius AI, for being your dataanalyst, I do think that having
AI do your data analysis for youis huge.
Let's talk about AI videocreation and editing.
(21:09):
I have some really great toolshere.
There's nine video tools.
I think video and AI is one ofthe next big frontiers and,
visually, when you think aboutTikTok and Instagram Reels,
people are really excited aboutthis aspect of it, and so these
(21:29):
are nine really great tools tolook at.
Even if you're not aprofessional videographer or
professional editor of videos,you can now use these tools to
create some really great videos,and it's everything from using
a tool like HeyGen to create adigital twin of yourself and
(21:50):
create product videos where youjust put in the script and then
your avatar is reading thescript in your own voice, just
like you would if you weretrying to perfectly read a
script.
There are tools where you cantake an image and make it into a
video, and there are tools thatwill create entire characters
(22:11):
for you.
So there's a broad spectrum ofthings that you can do with
these video AI tools that canhelp you create great video
content, tell great stories.
You can be a super creator usinga lot of these tools, and
they're not expensive.
They're not hard to use.
You don't have to learn how tobe a professional video person.
(22:34):
You just need to spend a littlebit of time, come up with a
great idea and then work on aproof of concept.
It's simple.
On a proof of concept.
It's simple Audio and musiccreation.
This is something that's superfun.
So 11 Labs is a great AIsolution where, if you upload
(22:57):
just two hours of your voicetalking, like I am in this
episode, it will clone yourvoice for you.
It will sound so realistic thatyour best friends and people in
your family won't even knowthat it's not you, and so if you
want to produce a lot morecontent and you don't want to
have to perfectly read thescript and spend hours doing
second, third, fourth, fifthtakes, you can create great
(23:18):
audio content using 11 Labs.
Also, think about things likeaudiobooks.
If you're an author and youwant to do your own audiobook,
then 11 Labs can be a greatsolution for you to do something
like that.
Suno AI you can make your ownsongs about anything you can say
(23:41):
.
I want to create a 1990s rapsong about AI and the style of
Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, and it'lldo it for you and it'll be
pretty good, and you can keepexperimenting with it to get it
just how you want it.
But I think these music toolscan enhance the video files and
(24:04):
the audio projects that we'reworking on and it is a really
fun, great tool.
And there are other tools likeMurph AI, which you can use to
quite simply do voiceovers.
So think about the Ken Burnsdocumentary right, it's just
(24:25):
still images with Ken Burnstalking and so you can do some
really cool, creative projectsto tell your story using these
tools.
Let's talk about tools formarketers and sales and
go-to-market.
Overall.
There's a couple of reallygreat tools here.
So the first one is Clay.
(24:46):
So they use AI to help youbuild your database of people
that you want to go out to thepeople in your audience.
So it's AI-powered go-to-marketdata and engagement, and I
think that they have some reallycool tools in that tool set.
And then you have tools likeChatbase and Voiceflow and Bland
(25:10):
AI, and these tools are workingtowards becoming the new AI SDR
the person who setsappointments, qualifies
prospects, just sets up meetingsbut actually doesn't do a lot
of selling in the traditionalB2B model.
(25:30):
These tools are improvingrapidly and they are very low
cost.
You can add agents like this toyour website, agents like this
to your website, and when peoplewant information at 11 o'clock
at night, the AI agent can givethem the information that they
(25:53):
need, and then they can schedulea time to talk to the people at
your company the sales reps toget more information, and so
there's no more fill out a formand someone will get back to you
three weeks from now.
It's I want to get theinformation I want right now.
I want to see if this is theright fit for me, and if it is,
then I'm willing to engage andtalk to somebody, and so I think
these tools can help companiesbe massively more efficient.
(26:18):
You don't have to throttle thegrowth of your business based on
how many appointment centersyou have on staff.
That's just not where we're atanymore.
This is one of my favorite partsof the presentation AI builder
and development tools.
So this is like magic.
You can now chat just like youcan with ChatGPT and give these
(26:43):
developer tools direction andsay I want you to build me a
website, I want you to build mean app, and here's what I want
you to do.
And you can just talk to itlike you would a developer and
say build me a homepage, buildme a resources page for my
website, add this to the website, change this on the website and
just give it clear direction.
(27:04):
And these tools just do that.
But it goes even further.
You can build an entire webapplication.
You can put a survey on thewebsite.
You can link it to other toolslike Calendly.
You can integrate Stripee-commerce.
You can integrate it with AIchatbots on the website.
You can build your own app thatpeople log into and use and
(27:27):
subscribe to, and this is greatfor building proof of concepts
to see hey, I have this idea fora startup.
Instead of spending millions ofdollars and years of your life
to get to a working prototype,you can have a working prototype
up in hours or days for lessthan a couple hundred dollars.
That changes everything andthese tools are really good.
(27:52):
Like at one side of the screenyou type in a text command.
On the other side of the screen, you see it, the code scrolling
.
It's mind-blowing.
It's like you can become asuper developer now and I've
used Replit to build entirewebsites in less than a few
hours.
This is much different thanwebsite tools like GoDaddy or
(28:18):
Squarespace or Wix that I'veused in the past that have like
templates that look kind ofcheesy.
You can build custom websiteswith your direction using these
tools like Replit, cursor,lovable.
So try out these tools.
I think this is the waydevelopment is going.
I don't think going forward,people are going to be learning
(28:41):
how to do coding.
I think people are going torely on these tools.
The one other note before Imove on is that I think in the
model going forward, the rightway to think about this is that
ChatGPT, claude or Geminiwhichever is your choice is
(29:02):
going is your product managerthat writes the product
requirements for a website or anapp and you create those
requirements.
You create the content inChatGPT and then you give it to
a tool like Replit and you saythese are the requirements for
the website or the app I wantyou to build and this is the
(29:25):
content that you generated inChatGPT.
And this is the content thatyou generated in ChatGPT.
So it becomes very powerful touse ChatGPT with a tool like
Replit to create an entireapplication.
It reduces the amount of timeit takes to create a website or
an application by 95%.
(29:46):
It's amazing.
It's not perfect.
You will often have to tellthese tools to fix an error, to
fix an error multiple times andeventually it'll fix it.
So it's not magical perfect,but it's really great compared
to having to get an entire teamof product managers.
(30:08):
Really great compared to havingto get an entire team of
product managers, graphicdesigners, ux experience people,
marketing people, developers,and get them to all work
together.
It could take months or yearsand maybe you still don't even
get what you want, whereas ifyou just use the tools in unison
, like ChatGPT and Replit, forexample, and some of the other
(30:30):
image creation tools.
You can create beautiful,amazing websites and apps, and
so I think this is a gamechanger.
This changes everything interms of how fast things can get
published on the Internet, ofhow fast things can get
published on the internet, andthis is another reason that
(30:52):
we're all super creators.
Now, if we're leveraging thesetools, punching over our weight
and having an unfair advantageover the competition.
Okay, ai creator tools.
There's 200 million creatorsout there in the world and some
of these creator tools arereally great.
You creators out there in theworld and some of these creator
tools are really great.
You're familiar with Canvalikely.
It's great for generatinganything from YouTube thumbnails
(31:15):
to the images you need for yourmarketing assets.
I use Descript to recordepisodes like this, to edit
episodes like this.
It has great AI functionalitythat makes it so fast and so
easy to edit videos and audiofiles, and you don't have to be
(31:37):
a professional video editor.
It does so many great things.
It even gives you studioquality sound.
If you don't have the rightmicrophone or the right
equipment at that moment in time, I think there's a lot of
really great graphics tools likeSecta AI is the one I use for
AI headshots.
You need to have great AIheadshots for your online
(31:59):
profiles and it does a great jobwith that.
There are great image tools likeMidjourney and you can create
professional quality productimages using tools like
Midjourney.
If you give it the right prompt, you can create something that
(32:19):
is better than a professionalphotographer shot for you for
your product.
I've seen people doing foodphotography and they put in a
very long prompt that's five,six paragraphs.
You know it's even giving thecamera settings for what the
professional photographer wouldset and you can get pictures of
(32:41):
food that are created by the AI.
That looks so good.
I'm like I would eat all ofthat and I give it a hundred out
of 10.
It looks so good and I thinkthat that's the power of these
creator tools is that they canmake your story come to life,
(33:05):
and the intersection is is thatyou can actually teach ChatGPT
to help you write the promptsfor tools like MidJourney.
You can load in a document thatsays to ChatGPT here's how to
give MidJourney prompts.
Now I want you to create thebest prompt for me for this
image and it will actuallygenerate a 10 paragraph prompt
(33:27):
that will give you the bestimage you could ever imagine out
of a tool like Midjourney.
So again, the intersection ofthese tools is really where a
lot of the magic happens.
Since you're listening to this,you know that I'm very into
podcasting.
I'm a big fan of Buzzsprout.
That's where I host my podcastand they have great AI tools
(33:51):
built into their solutionEverything from leveling the
sound to helping you creategreat show notes and social
media posts and blog posts foreach podcast episode.
But I think they have the besttranscripts and if you have
(34:13):
really great transcripts, thenyou can leverage those
transcripts to create othercontent using the AI.
You can take the transcript andsay, write a really great
content piece referencing thisinterview transcript, and I
would say Buzzsprout has thebest AI transcripts that I've
seen.
(34:34):
I also am a huge fan of theGoogle Notebook LM tool.
It's very interesting.
What you can do is you canupload a hundred page or
multi-hundred page document or abook and you upload that into
google notebook lm and it willcreate, using ai hosts a man and
(34:58):
a woman a five to ten minuteepisode that gives a summary of
whatever document you uploaded,and they do it in a fun and
creative way.
They often tell jokes.
The hosts sound like realpeople.
They even add human interruptlanguage transition words so it
(35:23):
doesn't sound like they're AIbots.
They sound like real humanswith personalities.
And they recently added a newfeature to Google Notebook LM
where you can interrupt and askthe host questions if you're
listening to it in the GoogleNotebook LM tool and it's
hilarious because the host willget a little bit annoyed when
you interrupt.
They're like I was just gettingto.
That.
It's too much.
It's great.
(35:45):
It's great, it's fantastic.
So Google Notebook LM is agreat way to get a summary cliff
notes, if you will of justabout anything in the world.
It's amazing, and you can evenpublish those summary episodes
if you wanted and share themwith friends, and I think that
(36:05):
that's amazing and really fun.
All right, the last thing I wantto mention, tool number 50, is
agentai.
It's by the co-founder ofHubSpot and he has this site
that he's created that hashundreds of AI agents on it
(36:29):
which will go out and completespecific tasks for you and at
the moment, because it's in beta, a lot of these agents are free
.
So, for example, one of theones on their website is company
research and you can put in acompany name and it'll go hit a
bunch of different sites and itwill tell you all the
(36:52):
information you want to knowabout a particular company.
So that's it.
That's my list of the 50 toolsyou should consider for your AI
tech stack.
Try these tools out.
The reason I highlighted these50 is not because they're the
only 50.
It's because these are the 50that I like.
These are the 50 I use.
These are the 50 I think thatare super helpful.
Again, most of them have freetrials.
(37:14):
They're not expensive.
The magic comes when you usethem together.
So I encourage you all to getout there, automate and
streamline your business andgrow your business using these
AI tools.
Today we are talking about the top 50 AI tools you
need for your AI tech stack.
That's right.
We're going to go into all thetools that marketers, founders
and creators need to grow andautomate processes in their
business.
You got to streamline andautomate and streamline and
(00:24):
automate to drive growth, andI'm going to go through today
and share with you all 50 tools.
I'm going to tell you what theuse case is for them, what their
website is and how much theycost Before we dive into the
details of it.
I do want to share with yousome overall principles that I
(00:48):
think are very important when wetalk about these 50 tools,
because if you just have a bunchof tools, what good is that?
There is definitely a strategythat you need to have in using
these tools together.
So let's talk about that for afew minutes and then we'll jump
into the list.
So why these tools matter?
(01:09):
First of all, they're reallyeasy to use.
You don't have to be aprogrammer, you don't have to be
a professional designer, videoeditor or have any technical
skills to use these.
These are designed for businessusers, and so, because I'm not
(01:34):
a developer by training, I'm nota designer by training I don't
know how to use all the advancedfeatures of the Adobe Creative
Suite.
These tools are great foreasily quickly creating all of
the assets I need to automatebusiness processes and grow my
business.
I think you're going to findthe same.
The second thing to note isalmost all of these tools have a
free version available.
(01:55):
You can try it before you buyit, and I think that's really
cool because before you go inand start spending money on
things, you want to know if it'sreally going to work.
And the third thing is none ofthese tools are really that
expensive anyways.
Most of them range from $10 to$50 a month for the premium
(02:16):
versions of these tools.
They're not going to break thebank, even if you need to use a
bunch of them, but it's allreally cost effective at this
point.
The cost may go up in thefuture they may not, we'll see
but all of this is easy to use,free to try and pretty low cost,
even if you need a bunch ofthese tools.
(02:39):
The next key point is that youcan seamlessly integrate and use
these tools together, andthat's where a lot of the value
comes in for people.
We'll talk a little bit aboutthis as we get into these tools,
but some people like to usesome of the AI tools like
ChatGPT and Cloud together.
Some people like to use ChatGPTand Canva together to create
(03:02):
visuals in Canva and the writtencontent in ChatGPT.
There's a lot of greatcombinations and that sort of
blending and creativity is wherea lot of the magic really
happens, and we'll get into thathere in just a few minutes.
The one thing that I do that Ithink is very helpful is we're
still in the very early days ofthis AI transformation is that
(03:28):
you have to use multiple toolsand multiple AI models.
There's a couple reasons forthat.
It can be a little bitfrustrating you had to pay for
multiple tools if you're usingthem, but there's some good
reasons to do it.
It's not that much money, butthere's some good reasons to do
it.
It's not that much money.
The first reason is is you canbenchmark them against each
other.
Some of them are better thanothers at specific tasks, and
(03:54):
particularly as you get intoChatGPT.
Most people are using the freeversion of ChatGPT.
Once you get to the plusversion, it's just $20 a month.
There gets to be seven or eightdifferent models that you can
use that are slightly better atdifferent things.
The same thing is true withGoogle's Gemini models.
(04:15):
They have a bunch of differentmodels and you have to test and
see which ones work best forcertain tasks.
So the benchmarking is veryimportant.
Also, accuracy they're trainedin different ways so they'll
come up with different answersto the same question potentially
.
So if you check things againstall the different models, you'll
(04:37):
get the best comprehensiveanswer and then you can optimize
the results you get.
So I think it makes sense toreally use all of the top tools
out.
So I think it makes sense toreally use all of the top tools
out there and I'll share thosewith you.
Let's talk a little bit abouthow to unlock massive
productivity using these 50tools.
There's a couple of great usecases just right off the bat
(05:00):
that go across a lot of thesetools Content creation,
marketing, automation forprocesses and marketing, sales
and customer service.
Software development is likemagic.
With AI, you don't have to be acoder anymore.
You can build websites and evenfull apps.
It's crazy.
I'll show you some of thesetools.
(05:21):
Project management andcollaboration tools are also at
the next level.
There's a lot of practical usecases for these tools in your
business.
One of the other biggestreasons is, if you're using
these tools, you can have anunfair advantage over them and
(05:42):
your competitors are not.
You'll be able to work five,six, seven times faster than
them and produce much betterresults, much higher quality.
And so if you can innovatefaster, if you can be more
efficient and you can reduceyour costs, you're going to beat
the competition, and that'sreason enough to figure out what
(06:07):
tools make sense and how toautomate almost every process in
your business.
It makes sense to look and sayhow does AI impact every process
in your business?
As I mentioned, all these toolsare very affordable right now.
You can start small Start byusing ChatGPT.
(06:27):
A lot of people are just doingthat, the free version of it.
That's great.
But then scale and figure outhow to automate and streamline
those processes so that you canspend more time being strategic
(06:48):
and growing your businessinstead of doing administrative
tasks that the AI can do for you.
And then, once you've made thatleap maybe you're using a
number of these tools.
Then really look to optimize itand look how to integrate these
tools together.
That is the maturity model thatyou should be thinking about
with these tools.
(07:08):
I want to point out that thereare ways to get all of these AI
tools to start working togetherin Symfony like an orchestra,
and some of the tools Zapier,makecom are great for doing that
and we'll talk a little bitabout that.
But the real magic comes whenyou start using these tools
(07:31):
together.
Here's a couple best practicesthat apply for all of these
tools and it's very important.
If you don't do these things,you could try some of these
tools and you say, oh, it didn'twork or they're not good.
But here's a couple pro tipsthat will make your testing of
these tools very successful.
(07:59):
You got to give clear direction.
The real secret to AI is you'relike a movie director.
There's a lot of variables youhave to manage.
The better direction you give,the better results you get.
You have to manage the betterdirection you give, the better
results you get.
Period Be specific with yourexpectations.
I think that this is superhelpful.
If you want something to bedelivered to you in a result, in
a column format or a table,tell the AI what format you want
(08:20):
the results in.
Don't expect it to just guess.
You can do that but just don'tget frustrated if it doesn't
give it to you perfectly how youexpect it, iterate and refine.
So this is very important.
I never turn in as an executivework to other executives without
(08:41):
having done multiple drafts ofit.
You never turn in a first draft, so you shouldn't expect that
the first draft of anything AIgenerates is going to be great,
and so what I often do is Igenerate something, then I'll go
in and edit the prompt andtweak it further and get a
better result.
Sometimes, once you get theresults, I will give it back the
(09:01):
result and say I just generatedthis report.
I need you to make this better,tell me how to make it better.
And once you go through anditerate a few times, it will
improve itself.
And part of this has to do withthe fact of there's limits on
the inputs that you can put intoprompts and there's limits on
(09:23):
the outputs.
But if you give it the rightcontext, it'll come back and say
, oh, you should add these threethings that it didn't put in
the first version because itdidn't have room.
But in a follow up prompt it'llgive it to you and then you can
add it.
So iterate and refine.
That's one of the keys towinning.
And then human AI collaboration.
(09:45):
I don't think that we're goingto get to the point anywhere in
the near future where humansshouldn't be in the loop.
It's probably not going to giveyou 100% perfect results, but
if it can generate 80 or 90% ofthe result you need and then you
do a couple of drafts, you'regoing to get to 100% really
quickly and so if you put theseprinciples against these tools,
(10:10):
you'll have a lot of success.
The other main reason to reallyuse these AI tools is to drive
growth.
It's a force multiplier.
You can do the work of multiplepeople if you use these tools.
There's many tasks at marketing, as a founder, as an executive,
(10:30):
that I can do literally fivetimes faster.
And if you can move faster, youcan grow faster times faster.
And if you can move faster, youcan grow faster.
That's the real reason to belooking at these innovative
tools.
They are going to disrupt everyprocess across sales, marketing
, customer success in yourbusiness they will.
(10:54):
I think the biggest hurdle thata lot of people have in
embracing different AI tools isthat they feel the tools are not
there yet or that the AI toolswill not impact a certain work
process that they're working on.
And the reality is, with thebillions of dollars being
invested in AI.
(11:14):
It's going to affect everything.
So just embrace it and figureout how to be a master at it.
That's the best way to havecomplete job security is to
become a master of it, and thenyou can be the one giving the
direction, overseeing it,innovating and it's a lot more
fun than doing the boringadministrative work anyways.
(11:38):
Okay, let's get into it.
Now here's the real fun.
We're going to go through all50 of these AI tools.
I broke them into a number ofcategories just so it doesn't
seem like a huge barrage oftools to look at, because I
think they do have specific usecases and functions tools to
look at because I think they dohave specific use cases and
(11:59):
functions.
So the first group is theactual large language models to
use, and many of you are likelyusing ChatGPT getting started
getting going.
There is probably 95% of peopleare still using the free version
of ChatGPT, which is great thatpeople are getting going on
that, but there's a $20 a monthversion, the plus version, and
(12:21):
there's a $200 a month version,and the paid versions are much
better than the free version andyou get access to a lot more
innovation, including thingslike GPTs, which allow you to
customize and optimize your workfurther.
You can create your own customGPTs.
Then there's other tools likethe Sora, the video AI tool you
(12:46):
get access to with the paidversions.
You get access to projects.
You get access to the operatorAI agent that will complete
scheduled tasks for you at thetop version.
In the pro version that's $200a month, and OpenAI just
released a deep research modelthat's available in the $200 a
(13:09):
month plan.
So you can work your way up toit.
But I would say 95% of peopleare still using the free version
and not really seeing the truemagic of even ChatGPT.
So you should use it andconsider, at the right time,
upgrading to the versions thatyou need.
The other big models are Claude,which is by the company
(13:33):
Anthropic.
Amazon is putting $100 billionbehind this, and so it's pretty
good.
A lot of people would say thatClaude writes more naturally and
writes better code for softwarethan ChatGPT.
It's sort of an arms race.
(13:54):
They keep making it better andthen the other one comes out
with a new model, but thereality is is that they don't
give the same answers.
So benchmarking Claude againstChatGPT, figuring out which
tasks are better for each model,it makes sense you can sign up
for $20 a month for Claude andget the paid version there.
(14:15):
They have a great projectmanagement tool.
One of the things an exampleClaude is better at is it's
better at doing things likeinfographics than ChatGPT.
So there's reasons to belooking at each of these.
Google has been catching up.
Gemini is their offering.
They are on version two of thatand they have a deep research
(14:38):
offering.
They have a number of reallycool AI tools in the Google
Advanced Studio, which is partof Gemini.
You can get onto it for $20 amonth.
Their pricing structure getspretty complicated If you use
the Google workspace for yourbusiness.
(14:59):
There's different combinationsyou can look at there, but a lot
of the tools you can get for$20 a month and the deep
research model they have is veryinteresting.
You give it one prompt it'll go, do 100 queries and write an
analyst report with you thatlooks like it was written by
(15:21):
Forrester or Gartner.
It's pretty awesome.
And so again, I like tobenchmark Gemini against Claude,
against ChatGBT, and see whichgives me the best answer.
And then Perplexity is slightlydifferent.
It's a view of the searchengine.
So instead of querying Googlefor an answer, like people have
(15:45):
for the last 25 years.
You can ask perplexity aquestion and instead of sorting
through a million links to tryto find the answer, it just
tells you the answer.
It's like why don't you justtell me the answer instead of
making me look for it?
And a lot of people reallyprefer that experience.
Not a big shocker, but each ofthese tools 20 bucks a month.
(16:06):
For 80 bucks you can be usingall four of them and the world
is at your fingertips.
So the workflow, automation andintegration I mentioned, there's
really these three tools tolook at.
You can look at makecom, zapierand N8n.
All of these allow you toconnect all of the different AI
(16:27):
tools I'm talking about today.
Together you can createworkflows, you can send data
between them.
I would say, try them out.
Zapier has been around for along time.
Makecom is much cheaper in myview and it gives you a canvas
where you can easily chart outwhat you're trying to do.
(16:47):
So that's my choice in thisgroup.
I think N8n is a newer playerand they have some interesting
stuff.
So have a look at these.
But it's really important to sayhow can we start using this
stuff together instead of insilos?
I think that's very helpful.
As we move on to talking aboutwhat can agents do.
Agents are really multiple AItools working together to
(17:09):
accomplish a task for you.
All right, ai, productivity andcollaboration tools.
I have seven of them listedhere, so there's some really
awesome stuff that you can dowith these tools.
So Lindy AI is a great tool ifyou need an executive assistant.
It can do everything thatexecutive assistants do in the
(17:34):
office for you, from taking thenotes to preparing your schedule
for the day to schedulingmeetings for you.
It really has some powerfulcapabilities.
So when you think about howmuch administrative roles cost
and how much it costs, it's adrop in the bucket.
How much it costs, it's a dropin the bucket.
(17:55):
So have a look at Lindy for thepersonal assistant, executive
assistant type roles.
I think creating great images.
You just need that for a lot ofcontent and marketing work.
I use falai, which will giveyou images from multiple image
(18:16):
models, including Flux, which isone of the best AI image
generation models out theretoday.
There's Julius AI, which is adata analyst capability, so
that's what the use case is.
You can have AI act as yourdata analyst.
That's a pretty awesome thing.
(18:37):
No one loves like sitting theregoing through data for hours.
That's not something peoplelove.
I can't tell you how many hoursof my life I have lost to
creating charts and graphs forpresentations and PowerPoints,
so Graphyapp is a great solutionfor creating the graphs and
(19:00):
business images you need.
I created this presentationusing Gammaapp.
I have wasted thousands ofhours of my career creating
PowerPoint presentations andGammaapp just creates
presentations for you and thenyou can customize it a little
(19:20):
bit as you need it.
It's like PowerPoints alwaysshould have been.
So just use Gamma app for allof your presentations going
forward.
There's no reason to have to besitting there manually creating
presentations and PowerPoint orGoogle Slides.
You can create your own themes,you can pick your own images,
(19:42):
you can pick your own colors.
They have great templates andit just does it.
It's like magic.
So that's a great way to getmany, many hours back in your
life.
If you don't use a tool likeFireflies or Otter to take all
of your meeting notes already,it's a huge productivity boost
(20:02):
because what you can do is youcan do things like summarize all
of your meeting notes for theentire day If you have 10
meetings in a day, like me, orif you have 50 meetings in a
week.
You can summarize all of themeetings for the week and look
across the action items for allof the meetings for the week.
There's some really powerfulthings that you can do there to
be more productive, things that,in a lot of cases, people would
(20:26):
have asked their executiveassistants or colleagues to help
them stay organized with, andyou don't need that anymore.
Just use tools like that.
I use Fireflies, it's great.
I think Otter is great.
There's a number of those tools.
I also just want to call outthat one of the other advanced
tools within ChatGPT is our dataanalysis tools.
(20:47):
They are actually very strong,so, similar to the other tool,
julius AI, for being your dataanalyst, I do think that having
AI do your data analysis for youis huge.
Let's talk about AI videocreation and editing.
(21:09):
I have some really great toolshere.
There's nine video tools.
I think video and AI is one ofthe next big frontiers and,
visually, when you think aboutTikTok and Instagram Reels,
people are really excited aboutthis aspect of it, and so these
(21:29):
are nine really great tools tolook at.
Even if you're not aprofessional videographer or
professional editor of videos,you can now use these tools to
create some really great videos,and it's everything from using
a tool like HeyGen to create adigital twin of yourself and
(21:50):
create product videos where youjust put in the script and then
your avatar is reading thescript in your own voice, just
like you would if you weretrying to perfectly read a
script.
There are tools where you cantake an image and make it into a
video, and there are tools thatwill create entire characters
(22:11):
for you.
So there's a broad spectrum ofthings that you can do with
these video AI tools that canhelp you create great video
content, tell great stories.
You can be a super creator usinga lot of these tools, and
they're not expensive.
They're not hard to use.
You don't have to learn how tobe a professional video person.
(22:34):
You just need to spend a littlebit of time, come up with a
great idea and then work on aproof of concept.
It's simple.
On a proof of concept.
It's simple Audio and musiccreation.
This is something that's superfun.
So 11 Labs is a great AIsolution where, if you upload
(22:57):
just two hours of your voicetalking, like I am in this
episode, it will clone yourvoice for you.
It will sound so realistic thatyour best friends and people in
your family won't even knowthat it's not you, and so if you
want to produce a lot morecontent and you don't want to
have to perfectly read thescript and spend hours doing
second, third, fourth, fifthtakes, you can create great
(23:18):
audio content using 11 Labs.
Also, think about things likeaudiobooks.
If you're an author and youwant to do your own audiobook,
then 11 Labs can be a greatsolution for you to do something
like that.
Suno AI you can make your ownsongs about anything you can say
(23:41):
.
I want to create a 1990s rapsong about AI and the style of
Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg, and it'lldo it for you and it'll be
pretty good, and you can keepexperimenting with it to get it
just how you want it.
But I think these music toolscan enhance the video files and
(24:04):
the audio projects that we'reworking on and it is a really
fun, great tool.
And there are other tools likeMurph AI, which you can use to
quite simply do voiceovers.
So think about the Ken Burnsdocumentary right, it's just
(24:25):
still images with Ken Burnstalking and so you can do some
really cool, creative projectsto tell your story using these
tools.
Let's talk about tools formarketers and sales and
go-to-market.
Overall.
There's a couple of reallygreat tools here.
So the first one is Clay.
(24:46):
So they use AI to help youbuild your database of people
that you want to go out to thepeople in your audience.
So it's AI-powered go-to-marketdata and engagement, and I
think that they have some reallycool tools in that tool set.
And then you have tools likeChatbase and Voiceflow and Bland
(25:10):
AI, and these tools are workingtowards becoming the new AI SDR
the person who setsappointments, qualifies
prospects, just sets up meetingsbut actually doesn't do a lot
of selling in the traditionalB2B model.
(25:30):
These tools are improvingrapidly and they are very low
cost.
You can add agents like this toyour website, agents like this
to your website, and when peoplewant information at 11 o'clock
at night, the AI agent can givethem the information that they
(25:53):
need, and then they can schedulea time to talk to the people at
your company the sales reps toget more information, and so
there's no more fill out a formand someone will get back to you
three weeks from now.
It's I want to get theinformation I want right now.
I want to see if this is theright fit for me, and if it is,
then I'm willing to engage andtalk to somebody, and so I think
these tools can help companiesbe massively more efficient.
(26:18):
You don't have to throttle thegrowth of your business based on
how many appointment centersyou have on staff.
That's just not where we're atanymore.
This is one of my favorite partsof the presentation AI builder
and development tools.
So this is like magic.
You can now chat just like youcan with ChatGPT and give these
(26:43):
developer tools direction andsay I want you to build me a
website, I want you to build mean app, and here's what I want
you to do.
And you can just talk to itlike you would a developer and
say build me a homepage, buildme a resources page for my
website, add this to the website, change this on the website and
just give it clear direction.
(27:04):
And these tools just do that.
But it goes even further.
You can build an entire webapplication.
You can put a survey on thewebsite.
You can link it to other toolslike Calendly.
You can integrate Stripee-commerce.
You can integrate it with AIchatbots on the website.
You can build your own app thatpeople log into and use and
(27:27):
subscribe to, and this is greatfor building proof of concepts
to see hey, I have this idea fora startup.
Instead of spending millions ofdollars and years of your life
to get to a working prototype,you can have a working prototype
up in hours or days for lessthan a couple hundred dollars.
That changes everything andthese tools are really good.
(27:52):
Like at one side of the screenyou type in a text command.
On the other side of the screen, you see it, the code scrolling
.
It's mind-blowing.
It's like you can become asuper developer now and I've
used Replit to build entirewebsites in less than a few
hours.
This is much different thanwebsite tools like GoDaddy or
(28:18):
Squarespace or Wix that I'veused in the past that have like
templates that look kind ofcheesy.
You can build custom websiteswith your direction using these
tools like Replit, cursor,lovable.
So try out these tools.
I think this is the waydevelopment is going.
I don't think going forward,people are going to be learning
(28:41):
how to do coding.
I think people are going torely on these tools.
The one other note before Imove on is that I think in the
model going forward, the rightway to think about this is that
ChatGPT, claude or Geminiwhichever is your choice is
(29:02):
going is your product managerthat writes the product
requirements for a website or anapp and you create those
requirements.
You create the content inChatGPT and then you give it to
a tool like Replit and you saythese are the requirements for
the website or the app I wantyou to build and this is the
(29:25):
content that you generated inChatGPT.
And this is the content thatyou generated in ChatGPT.
So it becomes very powerful touse ChatGPT with a tool like
Replit to create an entireapplication.
It reduces the amount of timeit takes to create a website or
an application by 95%.
(29:46):
It's amazing.
It's not perfect.
You will often have to tellthese tools to fix an error, to
fix an error multiple times andeventually it'll fix it.
So it's not magical perfect,but it's really great compared
to having to get an entire teamof product managers.
(30:08):
Really great compared to havingto get an entire team of
product managers, graphicdesigners, ux experience people,
marketing people, developers,and get them to all work
together.
It could take months or yearsand maybe you still don't even
get what you want, whereas ifyou just use the tools in unison
, like ChatGPT and Replit, forexample, and some of the other
(30:30):
image creation tools.
You can create beautiful,amazing websites and apps, and
so I think this is a gamechanger.
This changes everything interms of how fast things can get
published on the Internet, ofhow fast things can get
published on the internet, andthis is another reason that
(30:52):
we're all super creators.
Now, if we're leveraging thesetools, punching over our weight
and having an unfair advantageover the competition.
Okay, ai creator tools.
There's 200 million creatorsout there in the world and some
of these creator tools arereally great.
You creators out there in theworld and some of these creator
tools are really great.
You're familiar with Canvalikely.
It's great for generatinganything from YouTube thumbnails
(31:15):
to the images you need for yourmarketing assets.
I use Descript to recordepisodes like this, to edit
episodes like this.
It has great AI functionalitythat makes it so fast and so
easy to edit videos and audiofiles, and you don't have to be
(31:37):
a professional video editor.
It does so many great things.
It even gives you studioquality sound.
If you don't have the rightmicrophone or the right
equipment at that moment in time, I think there's a lot of
really great graphics tools likeSecta AI is the one I use for
AI headshots.
You need to have great AIheadshots for your online
(31:59):
profiles and it does a great jobwith that.
There are great image tools likeMidjourney and you can create
professional quality productimages using tools like
Midjourney.
If you give it the right prompt, you can create something that
(32:19):
is better than a professionalphotographer shot for you for
your product.
I've seen people doing foodphotography and they put in a
very long prompt that's five,six paragraphs.
You know it's even giving thecamera settings for what the
professional photographer wouldset and you can get pictures of
(32:41):
food that are created by the AI.
That looks so good.
I'm like I would eat all ofthat and I give it a hundred out
of 10.
It looks so good and I thinkthat that's the power of these
creator tools is that they canmake your story come to life,
(33:05):
and the intersection is is thatyou can actually teach ChatGPT
to help you write the promptsfor tools like MidJourney.
You can load in a document thatsays to ChatGPT here's how to
give MidJourney prompts.
Now I want you to create thebest prompt for me for this
image and it will actuallygenerate a 10 paragraph prompt
(33:27):
that will give you the bestimage you could ever imagine out
of a tool like Midjourney.
So again, the intersection ofthese tools is really where a
lot of the magic happens.
Since you're listening to this,you know that I'm very into
podcasting.
I'm a big fan of Buzzsprout.
That's where I host my podcastand they have great AI tools
(33:51):
built into their solutionEverything from leveling the
sound to helping you creategreat show notes and social
media posts and blog posts foreach podcast episode.
But I think they have the besttranscripts and if you have
(34:13):
really great transcripts, thenyou can leverage those
transcripts to create othercontent using the AI.
You can take the transcript andsay, write a really great
content piece referencing thisinterview transcript, and I
would say Buzzsprout has thebest AI transcripts that I've
seen.
(34:34):
I also am a huge fan of theGoogle Notebook LM tool.
It's very interesting.
What you can do is you canupload a hundred page or
multi-hundred page document or abook and you upload that into
google notebook lm and it willcreate, using ai hosts a man and
(34:58):
a woman a five to ten minuteepisode that gives a summary of
whatever document you uploaded,and they do it in a fun and
creative way.
They often tell jokes.
The hosts sound like realpeople.
They even add human interruptlanguage transition words so it
(35:23):
doesn't sound like they're AIbots.
They sound like real humanswith personalities.
And they recently added a newfeature to Google Notebook LM
where you can interrupt and askthe host questions if you're
listening to it in the GoogleNotebook LM tool and it's
hilarious because the host willget a little bit annoyed when
you interrupt.
They're like I was just gettingto.
That.
It's too much.
It's great.
(35:45):
It's great, it's fantastic.
So Google Notebook LM is agreat way to get a summary cliff
notes, if you will of justabout anything in the world.
It's amazing, and you can evenpublish those summary episodes
if you wanted and share themwith friends, and I think that
(36:05):
that's amazing and really fun.
All right, the last thing I wantto mention, tool number 50, is
agentai.
It's by the co-founder ofHubSpot and he has this site
that he's created that hashundreds of AI agents on it
(36:29):
which will go out and completespecific tasks for you and at
the moment, because it's in beta, a lot of these agents are free
.
So, for example, one of theones on their website is company
research and you can put in acompany name and it'll go hit a
bunch of different sites and itwill tell you all the
(36:52):
information you want to knowabout a particular company.
So that's it.
That's my list of the 50 toolsyou should consider for your AI
tech stack.
Try these tools out.
The reason I highlighted these50 is not because they're the
only 50.
It's because these are the 50that I like.
These are the 50 I use.
These are the 50 I think thatare super helpful.
Again, most of them have freetrials.
(37:14):
They're not expensive.
The magic comes when you usethem together.
So I encourage you all to getout there, automate and
streamline your business andgrow your business using these
AI tools.
