The tools I work,
think, and live with.

The performance and simplicity always brings me back to Chrome, although I like the native AI integration of the alternatives.

I use Notion for all my writing and to organize my projects. There is no alternative to the deep AI integration across desktop and mobile anywhere else.

Fast and accurate dictation built into the command bar I already live in. No need for a separate subscription anymore.

Meeting notes where the rest of my work already lives, and simply the best summaries. I use it a lot to capture ideas that pop in my head.

Family subscription via Apple One, and compared to Spotify more DJ Mixes (although YouTube is still the best in that regard).

Great for reading newsletters and RSS feeds (yes, I'm old school). Their UI could use some love. Also, Readwise to retain highlights. 🖤

If you can’t trust your brain remembering things, use Todoist. I love Ramble for quick voice capture!

Reliable inbox with search that actually works

AI-clipped highlights from Podcasts are great, and even better when they sync into Readwise

My backend engineer and architect

My frontend engineer

My UI/UX designer

It’s surprisingly therapeutic when your journal talks back to you.

The backbone of my digital life - impossible to live without it.

Google for the calendar backend to benefit from the integrations, but viewed in Apple Calendar

Free, no tracking, nice UI and forecast quality is good enough.

Great for tracking rain and storms on their weather map - Germany only

When you are into tech, you are on X

Cycling, strength, yoga, stretching - this is what keeps me fit.

Trusted German news, no noise

I prefer real books, but nothing beats a Kindle Paperwhite for reading in bed.

Knows your flight status better than the airline does

When you want enterprise-grade wifi and network at home, UniFi it is. I also use their NAS.

Raycast turns the Mac into what it should have been already. Besides launching apps quickly, I use it for quick notes, window management and AI-based spell checking.
