18d • 💡 AI Tips & Tools
How are you building your AI + automation tech stack?
I get asked this constantly: "What tools do you actually use?"
Here's the truth. There's no one "right" stack. There are just the categories every solo founder eventually runs into, and the tools that solve each one.
So instead of handing you my list and pretending it's yours, I'm handing you the categories. These are the ones that come up over and over inside Women Who Automate. Plus the tools I'd actually recommend if you asked me directly. Not exhaustive by any means, just the ones worth knowing.
✍️ **WRITING & CONTENT**
- Claude — strategy, long-form, brand voice
- ChatGPT — quick drafts, ideation
- Notion AI — if you already live in Notion
🎬 **VIDEO & EDITING**
- CapCut — free, short-form, auto-captions
- Descript — edit video by transcript
- Opus Clip — turns one long video into 10-15 shorts
🎨 **DESIGN & VISUAL**
- Canva Pro — thumbnails, carousels, templates
- Midjourney — AI imagery, mood, concept art
⚡ **AUTOMATION**
- Zapier — more integrations, bigger template library
📱 **SOCIAL SCHEDULING**
- Metricool — all platforms + analytics in one dashboard
- Buffer — simpler, AI captions
- Later — great for Instagram-first brands
📈 **ANALYTICS & SEO**
- VidIQ — YouTube keyword research
- SnapTik — remove TikTok watermarks for cross-posting
🤝 **CLIENT DELIVERY**
- Dubsado — proposals, contracts, invoices
- HoneyBook — similar, slightly simpler
📅 **TIME & SCHEDULING**
- Calendly — client booking automation
🔍 **RESEARCH**
- Perplexity AI — cited, real-time research
The real question isn't is *which category do I actually need right now?*
Start there. Build forward. One tool at a time.
Save the guide (PDF attached). Share it with a founder who's still doing everything manually. And drop your stack in the comments - I love learning how everyone else is working 👇.
