What are the 5 tools you simply couldn't do your work without?
This could be related to your industry, or even a side project you're working on.
Here are my 5 (I couldn't function without them):
Grammarly – proofreading my texts, not just posts, but also client communication
ChatGPT / Claude – mostly brainstorming, help with copy, and summarising
Figma – I can put the basic graphics together quickly.
Translator – sounds incredibly old-school, but English is not my mother tongue
Gmail – and not only for communication, but also for storing ideas and sending myself email reminders for posts
[and soon one more that I am working on – SafeLimit – prevents me from being banned on LinkedIn, so I will not lose my account.]
What are your five?

Mine:
1. Claude Code: most of my building runs through it now, especially the discovery step before any code gets written.
2. VS Code: still where I read and review every diff.
3. Figma: sketching and checking UI before I build it.
4. ChatGPT: a second opinion when I want a different take than Claude's.
5. Focushours: full disclosure, I built it, so I'm biased. It's how I track my focus hours by the week instead of the day, the only system that ever stuck for me.
Curious how many people here track their focus time at all?
Claude Code, Threads, Instagram, Slack, and Gmail
