Inspired by Brian Lovin's stack, here's my shortlist of the apps I use daily:

Design / Code

• Claude Workhorse of choice for building anything
• Paseo Daily driver for coding agents
• Cursor Frontend details and manual tweaks
• Figma Disposable UI explorations
• Balsamiq Low-fidelity wireframes (guilty pleasure)

Productivity

• Blank Page Where every first draft starts
• Fantastical Calendar and scheduling, everywhere I go
• Notion Mostly databases and kanban boards
• Raycast Emoji picker that also launches apps
• Simplify Makes Gmail surprisingly clean
• Supercut Recording bugs and quick demos
• Superwhisper Dictation, faster than typing
• Things Timeless task management
