Xamsor's Startup Tech Stack
My Startup Tech Stack I choose every tool on this list after thorough research and testing. I can recommend most solutions as solid (though not always affordable): Loom - an indispensable tool for managing the team spread in 5 time zones from Bangalore to Miami. I often record "looms" in the evening and see the work results the following day. Love it. Grammarly - makes my immigrant-style writing better. Including this post. Semrush - for everything SEO and competitive research. Spend hours with it. Ahrefs - to double-check Semrush data and get content update history and page counts. Originality ai - plagiarism and AI-content detection. I easily "feel" AI content, but Originality helps to check long texts where AI "inserts" may happen. Slack - to constantly distract me. ClickUp - to do organized work. Xero - accounting software, has a nice feature to split expenses per project. It's a great alternative to QuickBooks. WordPress - website platform. I hope they'll borrow the editor from Notion one day... OpenAI - ChatGPT mostly to navigate data, do simple coding, and summarize lengthy content. Clay - contacts research for cold outreach Instantly.ai - cold outreach per se. It has so many bugs that I feel better about my product. But it does the job! Customers.ai - website visitors recognition (US only). It feels like magic, showing who is visiting your website. Wise - payments worldwide with low commissions. Upwork - hiring and payments. GoDaddy - domains Intuit Mailchimp - the most expensive way to send emails. It costs $40/month even if you don't send anything. I regret I connected it. Stripe - payments and credit card processing Zadarma - phone calls Stripe Atlas - startup legal services xamsor CAT - I started to use my tool to audit the content and update it
