My team tried Slite for internal documentation. I personally used it for meeting notes and idea dumps. It looks clean, but performance was slow at times. The search also felt clunky. It's got potential, but it's not ready to replace our current setup just yet.

My team used Lumen5 to turn blogs into short videos. I created a few clips for social media campaigns. It’s a good concept, but the automation doesn’t always nail the flow. We had to make manual edits more often than we expected. Still, it’s useful.

We used Clover to replace a few internal docs. I personally used it for a team onboarding page. It’s sleek, but formatting quirks get in the way. My team likes the concept, but we had to fall back on other tools sometimes to fill gaps.

My team tested Reclaim.ai to help balance meetings with focus time. I used it for a few weeks to protect my work blocks. It works okay, but the syncing with calendars can lag. The idea is great, but it still needs refinement to fully deliver.

Our team uses Descript to clean up our podcast episodes. I personally love the ability to edit audio by editing text. It saves a ton of time. It can get a little buggy with longer files, but overall it’s a solid tool for content creators.

Tana is an interesting tool for knowledge management. My team has used it to map out project documentation. I personally enjoy its nested structure and tagging. There’s a learning curve at first, but it pays off once you understand the flow. It's very promising.

My team built a landing page using Typedream and it was surprisingly easy. I personally used it to test layout ideas for a client. The design tools are great, though I’d love to see better mobile optimization. Still, it’s one of the best no-code builders out there.

Notion AI has become a staple in how my team handles research and planning. I use it to draft summaries and brainstorm outlines faster than before. It's smooth, accurate, and feels like an extension of my workflow. I really appreciate how intuitive it has become.

My team and I use Cron Calendar every morning to align our schedules. I really like how clean the interface feels. It's helped reduce the back-and-forth with meeting coordination. Personally, I use it to block deep work sessions and it’s been a huge productivity boost.
