Proof, Not Just Promises

How We Actually Use AI

No hypotheticals. This is the stack running behind our own strategy, content, and operations right now.

🖥️

This Exact Website

We designed and built this entire site — the animated hero, the interactive quiz, the case studies — by "vibe coding" it with Claude Code. No dev team, no months-long build timeline. Just strategy and AI, working together.

🧠

Claude, As a Strategy Partner

We use Claude to synthesize research, pressure-test positioning, and draft campaign strategy faster — then we bring the judgment, taste, and client context that AI alone can't.

🤖

Custom GPTs, Built In-House

We've built custom GPTs trained on client brand voice and campaign frameworks, so content that used to take days of back-and-forth takes hours.

Zapier, Running the Busywork

We connect the tools our clients already use so leads, forms, and follow-ups move automatically between them — less manual admin, more time spent on the strategy that actually moves revenue.

Tools We Recommend

Build Your Own AI Stack

A curated list of tools we use or recommend to clients, organized by what you're actually trying to get done.

Marketing & Content Creation

For writing campaigns, captions, and creative faster without losing your voice.

💬

ChatGPT / Claude

Drafts campaign copy, captions, and email sequences, and helps brainstorm angles when you're stuck. Best used to get a strong first draft, not a final one.

🎨

Canva Magic Studio

AI-powered design tools built into Canva — background removal, "Magic Write" for on-brand copy, and quick resizing across platforms.

✍️

Jasper

Trains on your brand voice to produce copy at scale — useful once you have messaging locked and need volume (ads, product descriptions, etc.).

Social & Video

For turning raw footage into content people actually watch.

🎬

CapCut

Auto-captions, trending templates, and AI editing tools built for short-form video — the fastest way to get reels and TikToks out the door.

✂️

Opus Clip

Feeds it a long video (a podcast, a panel, a keynote) and it automatically finds and cuts the most shareable short clips.

🎤

Descript

Edit video and audio by editing text — great for cleaning up interviews, removing filler words, and fixing audio without timeline editing.

Operations & Automation

For getting time back on the stuff that isn't strategy.

📝

Notion AI

Summarizes meeting notes, drafts project docs, and helps organize scattered ideas into something your team can actually use.

Zapier

Connects the apps you already use so leads, forms, and emails move between them automatically — no developer required.

📅

Calendly

Smart scheduling that removes the back-and-forth of booking calls — we use it ourselves for discovery calls.

Customer & Sales

For staying in front of leads and customers without a bigger team.

📧

Klaviyo

AI-assisted email & SMS marketing with smart segmentation — helps you send the right message to the right customer automatically.

🤖

Chatbots (Intercom, etc.)

Handles common customer questions instantly, 24/7, so your team can focus on the conversations that actually need a human.

📈

HubSpot AI

CRM automation and lead scoring that helps you spot your hottest leads instead of guessing who to follow up with first.

Research & Strategy

For getting smarter, faster, before you build the plan.

🔍

Perplexity

Real-time research with cited sources — useful for competitor research, market sizing, and fact-checking before a pitch.

🧠

ChatGPT / Claude

Synthesizes research into strategy docs, SWOT analyses, and positioning options — a thinking partner, not a replacement for judgment.

🎯

Matcha & Marketing

We layer these tools into an actual strategy built for your business — that's the part AI alone can't do.
