## About

A curated, opinionated index of AI tools - categorized by the job to be done , not by which lab built the model. Three ways in:

Quick find : one-line "I want to..." → category map. Fastest path.

Pick your role : eight ready-made stacks: engineers, researchers, marketers, creators, designers, founders, students, knowledge workers.

Browse the index : 225+ tools across five clusters and 22 categories.

Conventions OSS open source · Local runs on your machine · Free meaningful free tier · Bold in role tables = the safe default.

Ship code faster without losing the plot on a large codebase.

YouTube, podcast, social. Look (and sound) better than the algo expects.

UI, brand, prototypes. Pixels and components, not redraws at handoff.

Conversational generalists - your daily-driver chat. Most now support memory, file uploads, web browsing, voice, image gen, and tool use.

A new wave of browsers (and extensions) where AI is the primary input, not a feature.

⚠️ Heads up (April 2026): OpenAI's Sora consumer apps shut down on 2026-04-26 ; the API follows on 2026-09-24 .

General-purpose agents that can plan, browse, click, and execute multi-step work.

For the people writing software, training models, or shipping products.
