It’s Monday (again). Monday gets a bad rap as the start of a new week, but we like to look at it as a new opportunity to hit our goals, reach new heights, and set ourselves up for the best week ever.

In order to make every Monday the best Monday ever, you need to be prepared, and there are tools that can help with that. Sure, some people can be productivity machines with just the Apple Notes app, but for everyone else, we’ve collected a handful of products that should give you a leg up on Mondays. 

• ReadyRunner is an AI assistant that lives on your desktop. You can use it to generate code, ask questions, and be more productive. 

• Superwhisper helps you write faster by using AI to accurately transcribe your voice into text. Why type when you can talk? 

• Sometimes you need the office. Undesk is a virtual shared space for your team to collaborate better and ship faster. 

• Context switching kills productivity. Lazy is a tool that lets you take smart notes without breaking your flow with whatever you’re doing. 

• Fumbling around for a meeting link can take a few seconds, but those seconds add up. MeetingBar 4 lets you join your next meeting right from your menu bar so you can reclaim those seconds.

So there you have it. If Monday has been a sense of dread for you, or if you just want to optimize your week a little better, check out the tools above.
