Tools we use
when our money is on the line.

The default starting point for any individual exploring AI. For enterprise rollout, Team or Enterprise tier is required to keep prompts out of training data.

Our default for serious analysis and coding work. For APAC enterprises that care about output quality over feature breadth, this is the strongest pick.

Pick this if your team is already on Google Workspace. The collaboration loop is unmatched there. Standalone, the experience is still rough.

For backend and infra work this is the most powerful tool we use daily. For frontend-heavy work, Cursor is often easier. Most teams should evaluate both.

For most engineers in 2026, Cursor is the productivity multiplier. The team plan is a no-brainer if your engineers are already paying for Pro themselves.

For marketing visuals, Midjourney still wins on aesthetic quality. The lack of API keeps it out of automation pipelines.

Our default API choice for production image generation. The combination of quality, speed, and API availability is unmatched right now.

For talking-head video and podcasts, Descript is genuinely transformative. Most content teams should adopt it.

Default API for production AI features unless cost or residency forces otherwise. The developer surface and reliability remain a step ahead of competitors.

Our pick when output quality matters more than feature breadth. Pair with OpenAI for voice/image and you cover the full surface.

The strongest all-around video AI right now. For serious creative video work, this is where to start.

The clear leader. For any voice use case in your product or content, start here.
