Best AI Tools to Speed Up My Workflow
One model isn't enough! My favorite AI tools for video, visuals, audio, and autonomous agents that I use most in my daily workflow.
1.
Video Production
I create 5-second raw videos with Seedance 2.0 or Kling 3.0. I use Gemini Omni for video analysis, Grok Imagine for text and jokes, and Heygen for video translations and lip-syncing.
2.
Image Generation
I use Nano Banana Pro for images I'll share on social media. GPT Image 2 is a lifesaver for quick mockups and concept designs.
3.
Editing and Quality Enhancement
The most important part of the job is the final touches. Topaz is incredibly successful for upscaling videos (increasing resolution). I also frequently use Magnific to enhance details.
4.
Audio and Music
If a sound or music needs to be added to a project, I know where to go. ElevenLabs is unrivaled for character voiceovers. For music creation, I use Suno. I also sometimes utilize Gemini's voice assistant features.
5.
Daily Assistance and Research
Groq is always open on my desk for general research, quick code writing, or brainstorming. However, for long texts, in-depth analysis, or creative content generation, I hand the job over to Claude.
6.
Autonomous Agents (Agents)
Work is no longer solved with a single model. For autonomous agents, I use Claude Cowork, OpenAI Codex, and Hermes. You need to know what you can do, where, and how.
