Cursor
An AI-powered code editor built on VS Code that helps you write, refactor, and understand code faster.

Linear
A fast, keyboard-first issue tracker for software teams.
Why this tool?
Linear is fast, keyboard-driven, and opinionated. It encourages clean workflows, cycles, and roadmaps while staying out of the way. It syncs well with GitHub and keeps engineering teams focused.

Loom
A screen and camera recording tool for sharing async video messages instead of writing long emails or scheduling meetings.
Why this tool?
Loom lets you record your screen, camera, or both, and instantly share a link—no uploading, no editing required. Recipients watch at their own pace, react with emoji, and comment at specific timestamps, making async communication far more human than text.
analytics · Freemium
Mixpanel
A product analytics platform for tracking user behavior, funnels, retention, and feature engagement in web and mobile apps.
Why this tool?
Mixpanel tracks individual user actions—clicks, form submissions, feature usage, purchases—and lets you build funnels, retention curves, and cohort analyses without SQL. Product teams use it to identify where users drop off, which features drive retention, and how different user segments behave.

Notion
A flexible workspace for notes, documents, databases, and team wikis.
Why this tool?
Notion replaces scattered notes, wikis, and lightweight project trackers with a single flexible workspace. Its block-based editor and database views let you build exactly the system your team needs.

PostHog
An open-source product analytics platform that combines event tracking, session replays, feature flags, and A/B testing.

Reclaim.ai
An AI scheduling tool that automatically finds time for tasks, habits, and focus blocks in your Google Calendar.
Why this tool?
Reclaim connects to Google Calendar and automatically schedules tasks, habits, and focus blocks around your existing meetings. It continuously reschedules around conflicts so that important work—not just meetings—gets protected time.

Sentry
An error monitoring and performance platform that captures crashes, slow transactions, and regressions in production.
Why this tool?
Sentry automatically captures every unhandled error in your application, attaches a full stack trace with the exact code line, user session context, and environment data—so you know what broke, who was affected, and how to reproduce it.

Slack
A team messaging platform that organizes communication into channels, threads, and direct messages with deep app integrations.
Why this tool?
Slack replaces email for internal communication with persistent, searchable channels organized by project or topic. Its 2,000+ integrations bring notifications and workflows from every other tool into one feed, reducing context switching.
