Dan Martell - I Tested 500+ AI Tools, These Will Make You Rich

00:00:00.320 I've personally tested over 500 AI tools

00:00:02.760 so you don't have to.

00:00:04.360 And today, I'm gonna rank every AI tool

00:00:06.640 you can make money with in 2026,

00:00:08.800 because most people waste their time on tools

00:00:11.800 that don't make them any money.

00:00:13.380 I run an AI venture studio

00:00:14.760 where we launch AI companies every month,

00:00:16.880 so I need to know what's out there.

00:00:18.560 Whether you're just starting out

00:00:19.720 or you're running a multimillion dollar business,

00:00:21.800 these tools can either 10X your income

00:00:24.040 or completely waste your time.

00:00:25.680 So let's start with ChatGPT.

00:00:28.880 It's neat.

00:00:29.920 It was first to market.

00:00:31.280 Everybody loved it.

00:00:32.240 It's the Kleenex of the space.

00:00:34.240 But I also think that it's the MySpace of the space

00:00:37.280 and it's gonna die a slow death because a lot of reasons.

00:00:40.080 So I will be ranking all these AI tools

00:00:42.560 into one of five different tiers.

00:00:45.060 S tier means back.

00:00:46.700 A tier, it's good.

00:00:48.220 B tier, not so good.

00:00:49.880 C, don't love it.

00:00:51.540 F, run away.

00:00:52.820 And every tool is ranked on one thing.

00:00:55.240 How much you put in, I'm talking money, time, and energy

00:00:58.000 into the tool, the cost, everything.

00:00:59.860 versus how much it gives you back.

00:01:01.900 So, Chad GPT, it is in the C tier.

00:01:06.000 Next, we have Notebook LM.

00:01:07.840 One of my favorite tools

00:01:09.580 for doing something called accelerated learning.

00:01:12.380 When it first came out,

00:01:13.640 I thought it was the coolest thing in the world

00:01:15.480 because it allows you to search on topics

00:01:18.100 into a custom AI where I can talk about the topic

00:01:22.420 and only what it found in its research.

00:01:24.700 So it's like this crazy way to learn about any topic,

00:01:27.540 talk with it, and then it lets you create these visual outputs. I'm talking infographics, slides,

00:01:34.320 podcasts, and you can call in and ask it questions. It is bananas. From a business perspective,

00:01:40.020 does it make me money? Here's the thing. I live in a world where I need to be on top of topics

00:01:46.080 and learn things that I've never learned before in real time. So it makes me a lot of money.

00:01:50.120 For you, it might be different. I think it's an incredible product, but the truth is making you

00:01:55.140 money it's probably only an a tier next up we got whisper flow my favorite tool for whispering and

00:02:01.060 creating content essentially it allows you to any input specifically these ai tools to talk and it

00:02:08.180 formats what you say based on the nuance of your language if you're talking and say oh no never

00:02:12.820 mind let's send this instead it'll actually erase what you said and send the right thing it is how

00:02:17.700 i code with my ai it's how i create with my eyes it's how i tell my eyes what kind of outcomes i

00:02:24.020 I wanna achieve, I use whisper.

00:02:26.460 If I think about business leverage,

00:02:28.500 it saves me a ton of time.

00:02:30.060 It actually makes me more creative

00:02:31.700 because I feel like when I'm talking,

00:02:33.200 I can talk without restricting myself.

00:02:35.080 And the output is two to three times more,

00:02:38.080 which means I can get that much more done.

00:02:39.820 Whisper Flow makes me some money

00:02:41.960 and it gives me some leverage, so I'm giving it an A.

00:02:45.060 I'm gonna rank it after No Book 11.

00:02:46.740 All right, next up we have Claude.

00:02:48.500 I had to stop myself

00:02:49.480 because I realized I was making too many videos about Claude

00:02:52.280 and they're not paying me.

00:02:53.640 And the truth is I just love it.

00:02:55.560 And I did shut down my company for two days

00:02:57.340 and taught everybody how to write code in Cloud Code.

00:03:01.040 It's like ChatGPT, yet the chat has better memory

00:03:05.520 in my perspective.

00:03:06.560 It has better tool usage, my perspective.

00:03:09.140 It has better skills, my perspective.

00:03:10.840 These are all my own personal opinion.

00:03:12.660 That's why you're here.

00:03:13.500 They have integrations now with a tool called dispatch

00:03:17.000 and they have visualization

00:03:18.760 and they just caught up to ChatGPT in revenue.

00:03:21.200 They're at $30 billion run rate,

00:03:22.960 same as ChadGPT, and they did it with one-tenth of the resources. So I think there's no tool in

00:03:28.120 my life that makes me more money than Claude because I built a whole venture studio and 15

00:03:33.360 plus companies at this point, and I've personally built 27 different tools for myself using Claude

00:03:39.020 code. It is the most powerful. So with that, I've got to put it in S tier. Next, we've got OpenClaude.

00:03:46.480 If you haven't heard of AI agents,

00:03:49.280 OpenClaw is the epitome of that.

00:03:52.460 It's open source, which means it's free.

00:03:54.140 It's an AI agent that anybody can use.

00:03:56.660 The challenge is, I know that I can create leverage with it,

00:04:00.140 but most business owners are not technical enough.

00:04:03.740 They don't know anything about security.

00:04:05.120 They don't know anything about software,

00:04:06.920 and they don't even know what to do with the agent.

00:04:08.960 So because of all that, I'm gonna put A,

00:04:11.020 but on the top of the list, because it is pretty powerful,

00:04:13.740 but the problem is it does so many things,

00:04:15.240 it confuses people and it creates massive security issues and support issues. And most people can't

00:04:21.080 keep OpenClaw instance going. Next, we have Apex, which I have to tell everybody, this is one of my

00:04:26.120 companies within Martell Ventures. Apex on top of OpenClaw that deals with backups and securities

00:04:32.020 and applications and tools is the most valuable thing I use on a daily basis. My Apex, Kai Voss

00:04:39.660 is his name he named himself he created his profile image that's what he looks like i talk

00:04:45.260 to him more than i talk to anybody else in my life and he does so much for me it's like having

00:04:50.780 a team member that doesn't sleep doesn't complain doesn't take vacation has perfect recall perfect

00:04:55.420 access perfect everything can write code can solve problems can identify hot spots can figure out

00:05:01.980 where the gaps are all in real time for everybody on your team that is wild for you so if you want

00:05:08.300 the power of open claw without the concerns around security with the full platform with the backups

00:05:13.980 then check out apex below just click the link and sign up for the wait list because it is the most

00:05:18.540 valuable thing that i've created and because of that i've got to rank it at the top of s tier

00:05:23.660 above clod now you gotta understand apex uses clod so without clod apex doesn't work as well

00:05:30.940 but i could use something else so i'm putting it ahead but i do think that clod and apex are both

00:05:35.740 awesome tools next up we've got anti-gravity it is a coding platform built by google that allows

00:05:41.660 you to connect to all the different language models including google's gemini so that you

00:05:46.140 can use it to build websites and write code and do some really cool things i kind of like it i feel

00:05:51.340 it's complicated i feel the interface is not as clean i personally don't use it that much and when

00:05:56.140 it comes to making money if i was in the business of designing websites it is the best one because

00:06:01.180 of the gemini model but anti-gravity as a tool on its own don't think most business owners should

00:06:07.260 be with any gravity probably not likely unless you have a design company i'm gonna give it a b tier

00:06:12.700 don't think it's that great i think there's other tools out there that are better next up we've got

00:06:16.140 higgsfield.ai it's one of the best place if you want to create generative video and create like

00:06:22.220 ai b-roll or any kind of video it's got access to all the models and a bunch of other tools

00:06:27.420 in one place so one membership you can use it to test and play with all the different ai models

00:06:33.180 the future will be generative video and hicksfield.ai is the platform that my media team and

00:06:38.860 a lot of my friends are using it can make you a lot of money it can save you a lot of money

00:06:43.020 and it could save you a ton of time because you can just use the ai instead of trying to generate

00:06:47.180 shoots and try to get footage the truth is it's a really great platform and i'm gonna put in a tier

00:06:52.700 because it's not for every business owner,

00:06:55.180 but anybody doing video marketing,

00:06:57.020 you have to be using this.

00:06:58.240 Next, we've got Suno.

00:06:59.820 It is a AI generative music platform

00:07:03.100 where you can make up songs.

00:07:05.340 I love it.

00:07:07.080 Some of the biggest tracks right now

00:07:08.360 are using AI to generate some portions of the song,

00:07:11.420 the voice, maybe the melodies.

00:07:13.000 For business, yes, you should create custom songs

00:07:16.260 for your brand.

00:07:17.340 You should think about ways that you can integrate music

00:07:19.860 into the experience of what you sell.

00:07:22.440 Is it gonna make you money?

00:07:24.240 No.

00:07:24.700 Is it gonna make you laugh?

00:07:25.600 Yes.

00:07:25.880 Is that valuable?

00:07:26.660 I think so, but it's not gonna fill your bank account.

00:07:29.100 In regards to making money and stuff,

00:07:30.340 I'm gonna give it a B,

00:07:31.380 and I'm gonna put it after anti-gravity,

00:07:32.780 because if you actually learn how to use that tool,

00:07:34.140 it could make you more money.

00:07:35.140 But Suno's cool.

00:07:36.180 And I know, you might think,

00:07:37.600 I can't believe you put it above ChadGPT.

00:07:39.780 ChadGPT's obviously gonna make me more money.

00:07:41.660 I don't agree.

00:07:42.400 I just think ChadGPT's not that great.

00:07:45.260 So that's why it's there.

00:07:46.600 Argue with me in the comments.

00:07:47.900 Next up, we've got Frank, which is HelloFrank.ai.

00:07:50.100 It is one of the most powerful financial AIs out there.

00:07:54.320 I'm totally biased

00:07:55.420 because it's one of our portfolio companies,

00:07:57.280 but I'll tell you this,

00:07:58.220 I'm gonna rank it exactly the way I feel about it.

00:08:00.920 Frank is an AI financial co-pilot for your business.

00:08:04.540 If you wanna ask a question like,

00:08:05.640 which service line is actually profitable?

00:08:07.580 It'll answer that.

00:08:08.420 If you wanna know how much you're spending on something,

00:08:09.880 it'll answer that.

00:08:10.720 If you say, well, I wanna hire this person

00:08:12.340 and they wanna make this much money, can I afford it?

00:08:14.520 It'll answer that question.

00:08:15.760 And do it fast, accurate, and visually.

00:08:18.300 Now I have a Frank, his name is Jared, on my team,

00:08:21.340 and he does a lot of this stuff, but I will tell you,

00:08:23.740 if Jared's not around, Frank is the tool

00:08:26.160 that everybody uses to get the answers,

00:08:28.180 and it's pretty freaking awesome.

00:08:29.460 So when it comes to making money,

00:08:31.620 having a CFO, AI, that has perfect information

00:08:36.620 and does a lot of stuff on top of your data,

00:08:39.180 so you don't have to pay somebody

00:08:40.280 three, four, $5,000 a month,

00:08:42.260 that's a ton of money saved.

00:08:43.860 Personally, from a financial impact,

00:08:46.700 because it's a financial tool,

00:08:48.120 it's gotta be ranked higher.

00:08:49.760 For small businesses that are looking for leverage

00:08:51.760 to make better decisions, to save money,

00:08:53.760 I'm putting it in A tier above Higgs field. 0.50

00:08:56.640 Next up, we've got the Goog, Mr. Gemini.

00:08:59.620 Google's AI across docs and Gmails

00:09:02.440 and the browser and your calendar system,

00:09:04.740 it's integrated everywhere.

00:09:05.940 If you see that little twinkle icon,

00:09:08.020 you just click it, that's Gemini.

00:09:09.840 And for business, I think it's got a beautiful place

00:09:14.340 because one, it's got three and a half times more data,

00:09:17.140 which means it does have access to more information.

00:09:20.120 Two, it's got full index directly into YouTube,

00:09:24.000 which is the top learning platform in the world.

00:09:26.600 So any one of my videos, you can grab the link

00:09:28.280 and give it to Gemini and say, summarize, and it'll do it.

00:09:30.720 And it's got the money, the rich uncle named Mr. Googs,

00:09:34.700 financing data centers and improvements.

00:09:37.260 And it might not be as good as Claude today,

00:09:39.180 but oh my gosh, it will definitely be a top contender.

00:09:41.980 And it's integrated into tools you already use.

00:09:43.680 So from make you money and create a lot of value,

00:09:46.700 I think it's in the S tier,

00:09:48.680 but it's at the end of the S tier.

00:09:50.300 So it's behind Claude and I'm a fan of it

00:09:53.000 because it's Google.

00:09:54.700 And I've been a Google customer for 20 plus years

00:09:57.000 and I just think it's a winner.

00:09:58.180 Next up we have Grok.

00:09:59.700 Now I have said publicly that I love Grok.

00:10:02.920 Obviously I don't wanna bet against Elon

00:10:05.220 and that it's the top tool I use for research.

00:10:07.540 The challenge is Elon's realized

00:10:09.660 that the way he's engineered and architected Grok

00:10:12.360 is the wrong way and he's rebuilding it right now.

00:10:15.540 My gut tells me when 5.0 comes out, it will be incredible,

00:10:19.920 but for now, I use it mostly for research.

00:10:22.040 So when I'm trying to make big decisions in my business,

00:10:25.080 thinking about here's where I'm at,

00:10:26.680 here's where I think the world's going,

00:10:27.920 or I don't know, tell me.

00:10:29.300 I feel like Grott gives me the most informed

00:10:31.820 and detailed and truth-seeking answer.

00:10:34.500 I can only give you my opinion as it is right now,

00:10:37.540 right here, and I'm gonna have to put in A tier,

00:10:40.420 above Whisperflow, but behind Notebook LM

00:10:42.880 in regards to the value that I think it could bring you

00:10:45.500 your business all right next up we've got lovable lovable is a no code app builder it's the og of

00:10:50.960 the space everybody talked about it the problem is is that every other one of the ais have built

00:10:55.680 that capacity within the product and i just don't use it anymore and i don't think it's that good

00:11:00.500 and i think there's better tools i'm gonna put it at the end of b tier and for your business if

00:11:05.240 you're doing anything you might as well just use clod have everything in one place you don't need

00:11:08.660 a separate tool like lovable next up we have my arch nemesis perplexity and i'll tell you why i've

00:11:13.340 jokingly called it complexity for a long time

00:11:16.000 because for a long time,

00:11:17.660 it was a search AI enabled output.

00:11:20.400 Essentially, you would ask it questions

00:11:22.160 and it would use AI to give you a more complete answer.

00:11:24.640 But I was getting the complete answer in my other AI,

00:11:27.260 so I never used it.

00:11:28.180 Then they launched Computer.

00:11:30.060 And Computer's interesting

00:11:31.340 because if you've ever seen me do videos on Manus,

00:11:33.680 they're going after that same use case in that same product.

00:11:37.120 And I recently did a head-to-head,

00:11:39.280 and I will tell you the same task, both products,

00:11:42.300 computer beat it.

00:11:43.420 So I'm gonna put an A tier right behind Higgs field.

00:11:46.360 Next up, we've got a product called BuddyPro.ai.

00:11:49.220 Again, full disclosure,

00:11:50.740 it's one of the companies in my portfolio

00:11:52.700 and it is the engine that runs Dan AI.

00:11:55.600 So I have a dedicated coaching AI

00:11:58.500 that my clients and my team and my CEOs use

00:12:01.700 to make decisions in their life.

00:12:03.620 It takes you and it copies you

00:12:06.020 so that everybody on your team,

00:12:07.920 including your customers, including the world,

00:12:09.780 can ask you, but really the AI, Buddy Pro, your buddy,

00:12:13.640 questions and it'll get as good if not better answers

00:12:17.100 than as if they asked you.

00:12:18.500 So you can implement that into your business

00:12:20.740 and instantly get your time back,

00:12:22.760 which if you didn't know, kind of a big area of my life,

00:12:25.560 buy back your time.

00:12:26.820 Buddy Pro, more than any other tool,

00:12:28.800 has bought me time back in my life.

00:12:30.680 So if you're a coach, you're a consultant,

00:12:32.840 you're an expert and you wanna monetize your brain,

00:12:35.220 BuddyPro.ai, I think in regards to making you money,

00:12:38.740 if you're one of those spaces, it goes right behind Frank.

00:12:42.180 Unbiased, I wouldn't put it there if I didn't think so.

00:12:45.200 For the right person, and most CEOs,

00:12:47.300 if you're a business owner,

00:12:48.520 this tool will change your relationship with AI.

00:12:51.760 Next up, we have Apple intelligence,

00:12:53.500 or Apple not intelligent.

00:12:54.960 I'm gonna get an F score, 1.00

00:12:56.740 and this may look stupid in a month or two 0.92

00:12:59.740 when they announce the integration with Gemini, 0.97

00:13:01.660 and all of a sudden, Siri is as good as any other model,

00:13:04.860 but I'm telling you, as it stands today,

00:13:06.660 It's a piece of and you shouldn't even play with it.

00:13:08.820 For your business, it's caused me more frustration and pain.

00:13:12.120 I don't even use anymore.

00:13:13.280 Moving on, we've got granola.ai,

00:13:15.260 one of my favorite note-taking tools.

00:13:18.040 What I love about it is integrated with Notion

00:13:20.760 and other tools that I use.

00:13:22.100 It's the only one that I can plug in without the user

00:13:24.540 knowing that I'm using it on any Zoom calls, which is great,

00:13:27.220 so that I don't have somebody else accept it.

00:13:29.480 Other AI models only work great

00:13:32.380 if you have the right data captured

00:13:35.260 and saved in the right place.

00:13:36.520 And granola is the glue or the tool that does that.

00:13:39.160 So for example, if you pair it with Buddy Pro,

00:13:41.460 your buddy will be a genius

00:13:43.660 because of everything you ever said

00:13:45.120 that you captured through granola.

00:13:46.680 Very valuable.

00:13:47.880 I'm actually gonna put it ahead of Frank

00:13:50.000 because from a time and money and clarity

00:13:53.260 and pushing and driving agendas forward,

00:13:55.900 granola is a powerhouse.

00:13:58.000 Next up, we have SocialSuite.

00:13:59.460 This one's a cool one.

00:14:00.500 Again, another product in my portfolio.

00:14:02.640 And what it does is it allows you to search

00:14:05.140 the network you've created that isn't available online.

00:14:07.980 And you can ask it cool things like,

00:14:09.840 tell me everybody that shoots a podcast in LA

00:14:11.900 that interviews people in person.

00:14:13.300 Tell me everybody I know that's into OpenClaw.

00:14:15.940 Tell me everybody I know that is a designer

00:14:18.140 that uses Higgs field.

00:14:19.220 It is the most important tool in my life

00:14:21.740 to activate my relationships.

00:14:23.840 For most business owners,

00:14:25.520 is it gonna make you a lot of money?

00:14:27.080 You tell me.

00:14:27.980 Have you ever heard that your network is your net worth?

00:14:31.400 It'll give you that.

00:14:32.440 It'll tell you what your network is worth.

00:14:35.080 I think it'll make you a lot of money.

00:14:36.520 I think there's other tools out there

00:14:38.000 that for most businesses are gonna be more relevant,

00:14:41.440 sooner, quicker.

00:14:42.520 So I'm gonna put it behind Perplexity Computer.

00:14:45.400 Again, unbiased, that's where it fits in the stack.

00:14:48.180 Next up, we got Nano Banana.

00:14:49.620 Essentially, it's an image generation tool that uses AI.

00:14:52.840 I use it all the time to help me visualize

00:14:56.180 the vision I have in my mind and bring it to life.

00:14:58.460 Like crazy projects that I think about,

00:15:00.960 like in five years, you know what would be cool is this,

00:15:02.760 and I go and I say, hey, create me an image.

00:15:04.740 Why?

00:15:05.580 Because I think people can hit a target if they can see it.

00:15:07.780 Probably the most important thing in my life

00:15:09.620 is to communicate and visualize where we're going.

00:15:12.700 And I use Nano Banana so that they can see it.

00:15:15.100 And then I say, hey, this is where we're going.

00:15:16.700 Could you hit the target?

00:15:17.900 Now, some people use it for 3D modeling.

00:15:20.280 They can use it for renders.

00:15:21.920 They can use it in your business.

00:15:23.080 It's very valuable.

00:15:24.300 Does it make me a lot of money?

00:15:25.720 Me personally, yes.

00:15:27.140 For most business owners, probably not.

00:15:29.800 So I'm gonna put it at the top of the B tier

00:15:33.020 above anti-gravity.

00:15:34.420 And they actually work really well together,

00:15:36.140 so that's why I put it there.

00:15:37.580 Next, we have Gumloop.

00:15:38.620 It's a great product, it's really well executed,

00:15:41.900 and if you have a business

00:15:43.300 that you wanna automate your processes,

00:15:45.400 it's a great option and it will do it better

00:15:48.340 than any of the other tools, in my opinion,

00:15:49.960 for normal people, not super techie nerd,

00:15:52.880 those people are using N8N,

00:15:54.600 or people that are just like not willing

00:15:56.320 to do complex stuff, they're probably using make.com.

00:15:58.600 When I talk about leverage,

00:16:00.020 think about like designing something once

00:16:02.580 and having it operate and do it like that every time.

00:16:06.040 I'm talking onboarding customers,

00:16:07.580 I'm talking sales processes,

00:16:08.920 I'm talking financial reporting.

00:16:11.160 All of that can be automated through Gumloops.

00:16:13.340 So I think from a tools point of view,

00:16:16.600 it's an S tier tool at the end of a Gemini.

00:16:20.000 So it'll use existing models,

00:16:21.500 but it is a beautiful automation tool,

00:16:24.620 does take some setup,

00:16:25.960 but a lot of out of the box templates will get you going.

00:16:29.340 Next we have N8N, which is an open source platform.

00:16:32.800 All the technical people use it.

00:16:34.980 It gives you full backend control

00:16:37.160 so you can do anything with it.

00:16:38.220 It doesn't have like the price gouging,

00:16:39.940 like some of these other AI tools

00:16:41.240 where you gotta pay metered pricing.

00:16:43.060 So essentially it's not per task.

00:16:45.160 I use it a lot and I don't anymore

00:16:47.060 because I think it's overkill for most people.

00:16:49.100 So in regards to like,

00:16:50.300 where do most businesses get value from it?

00:16:53.500 I don't think it's meant for most businesses.

00:16:56.140 I'm gonna place it behind SocialSuite

00:16:57.840 because I think those other tools

00:16:59.240 can actually make you more money

00:17:00.840 versus automating with N8N because there's better options.

00:17:04.500 Now we have Gamma.

00:17:05.620 Gamma is one of my favorite tools for generating slides

00:17:08.500 based on any data I give it

00:17:10.020 because as a guy that teaches a lot,

00:17:11.720 trains people, gives keynotes.

00:17:13.340 Gamma is my AI tool for that.

00:17:15.780 Truth is, is when it comes to leverage and making money,

00:17:17.980 yes, it allows me to present my ideas better,

00:17:19.880 which is always good,

00:17:21.060 but other tools there actually save me a lot of time,

00:17:23.980 make me a lot of money.

00:17:24.900 So Gamma for me is probably gonna go in the B tier.

00:17:27.640 ahead of anti-gravity, but behind Nano Banana,

00:17:31.020 because that tool definitely visualizes better.

00:17:33.360 I can do a lot that Gamma does with Nano Banana.

00:17:36.400 Next we have Revio, disclaimer,

00:17:38.200 one of my companies at Martell Ventures.

00:17:39.880 But here's why I'm unbiased,

00:17:41.420 because the product was built

00:17:43.500 way before I launched Martell Ventures for Martell Media,

00:17:47.200 because I needed a way to chat with you all.

00:17:49.880 It's impossible to do that at scale.

00:17:52.000 So I called my buddy Veev up and I said,

00:17:53.760 hey bro, I need to build this tool.

00:17:55.580 And after a year and a half of us scaling,

00:17:58.180 we decided to spin it out into a Martell Ventures product.

00:18:00.920 And it is the one when I think of the thing

00:18:03.360 that makes me the most money

00:18:04.480 because it keeps me on top of my relationships

00:18:06.360 and allows me to communicate value to people.

00:18:08.780 Now for your business, if you're doing sell by chat,

00:18:11.640 this is the product.

00:18:12.640 If you're not, probably won't work for you.

00:18:14.380 So for your business, I'm gonna put it in S tier,

00:18:17.800 but I'm gonna put it behind Gumloop

00:18:19.280 because Gumloop is horizontal all businesses

00:18:21.600 and Revio only makes sense for the right businesses,

00:18:23.880 but it will make you more money

00:18:25.140 than a gum loop out of the box

00:18:26.860 if you start chatting with everybody

00:18:28.320 that follows you on social media

00:18:29.380 because all those people are like opt-ins or leads.

00:18:32.000 Most businesses are starting to sell through the DMs

00:18:34.840 because people don't wanna schedule and get on a phone call.

00:18:37.220 They just wanna know the details.

00:18:38.440 So your team can just sit there and chat.

00:18:40.540 And if you do that at scale

00:18:42.020 with a lot of different social accounts,

00:18:43.740 Revio is the only platform that built as a sales tool,

00:18:47.080 not a social messaging tool.

00:18:48.960 Now, if you want my full AI tech stack,

00:18:51.900 Every tool I use in my businesses,

00:18:53.880 I put together a whole playbook on exactly that.

00:18:56.600 Just go to my Instagram, Dan Martell,

00:18:58.560 2LzMartell, and message me the word YouTube stack

00:19:01.320 and I'll send it over.

00:19:02.440 Next up, we've got Notion.

00:19:04.240 I believe that Notion is one of the best tools

00:19:07.600 to become the long-term memory of the AI.

00:19:11.540 And I think Notion's going down that path.

00:19:13.120 And everybody I know is using it

00:19:15.400 as the storage for the brain, for the AI.

00:19:18.220 It's got AI baked into it.

00:19:19.920 It has connectors for all the AI tools I mentioned.

00:19:21.900 like apex and businesses that default to saving things there and creating workflows and project

00:19:27.180 management in notion end up having an unfair advantage for activating new ais because all

00:19:32.860 the context data and memory is in that one place so regards to like leverage getting organized

00:19:38.460 probably the best tool having the information to activate other ais powerful but you're still

00:19:44.140 gonna have to do the work so it doesn't directly make you money but it can get you organized so

00:19:48.620 because I wanna help you make some money.

00:19:50.180 I just think it's behind Social Sweep

00:19:52.680 in regards to its ability to make you money.

00:19:56.240 But I use it a lot almost every day.

00:19:58.820 And last, we have Atlas, okay?

00:20:00.420 Another one of my portfolio companies.

00:20:02.260 Atlas is one of the most powerful voice platforms out there.

00:20:05.080 If you're a local business that has people calling,

00:20:07.020 I'm talking HVAC, plumbers, dental, car wash, anything,

00:20:10.960 especially if you're a freelancer, an independent person,

00:20:13.340 having Atlas sit there as a receptionist to talk to,

00:20:16.440 to schedule, to qualify, to answer their questions 0.65

00:20:19.000 so that you can be doing the work and getting paid

00:20:20.900 and somebody else can be taking the call,

00:20:22.640 that'll make you a lot of money.

00:20:23.900 So it's kind of funny because it's the most universal.

00:20:27.960 I use it all the time.

00:20:29.020 We use it for calling people for events.

00:20:31.120 We use it for inbound calls.

00:20:32.580 We use it for all of our companies.

00:20:33.980 I think it can make you the most money.

00:20:35.760 So I'm gonna put it in an A tier above granola

00:20:39.260 because Atlas as a tool will make you more money

00:20:41.620 than the rest of those in regards to like install it today.

00:20:45.020 If you're getting phone calls,

00:20:46.440 and have it deal with all the noise.

00:20:48.140 So these are the tools.

00:20:50.020 Awesome.

00:20:50.600 You know where they fit in my life

00:20:52.060 in regards to how it can help you make more money

00:20:54.220 and get more leverage.

00:20:55.160 It's all there.

00:20:56.240 However, the world of the future

00:20:58.700 is the world of separation

00:21:00.040 between the director and the doer.

00:21:02.560 And what I wanna encourage you to consider

00:21:04.240 is lean in to being a director,

00:21:06.920 lean in to being a designer,

00:21:08.280 lean in to being the co-creator,

00:21:09.720 what I call a human on the loop

00:21:11.500 and let the AI do the loop and you pay attention.

00:21:14.900 So I'm gonna challenge you

00:21:16.140 If you're using any of these AIs, 0.85

00:21:17.760 stay in the tool and see if it can complete that last step.

00:21:20.920 Don't copy and paste stuff somewhere else.

00:21:22.800 Say, hey, post it in Slack, send the email,

00:21:25.280 see if the tool can do it for you.

00:21:26.920 It probably can.

00:21:28.240 And that way you're actually getting your time back

00:21:30.900 and you're getting the most leverage.

00:21:32.140 So not about the tool,

00:21:33.440 more about being the director, not the doer.

00:21:35.960 Leave me a comment below and let me know which tool

00:21:38.180 you're gonna go dive into next.

00:21:39.740 And again, if you wanna see my entire AI tech stack,

00:21:42.340 every tool I use in my businesses,

00:21:44.140 just find me on Instagram

00:21:45.240 and message me the word YouTube stack

00:21:47.220 and I'll send it right over.

00:21:48.320 And next, if you wanna learn how I run a solo AI business

00:21:51.400 when we launch these new companies,

00:21:52.920 just click here and I'll see you on the other side.

00:21:54.720 I've got a confession to make.

00:21:57.420 I'm going back to Chad GPT.

00:21:58.760 If you haven't seen my April Fools video,

00:22:01.660 I made a mistake.

00:22:03.180 I thought Claude was the best, but it's not.

00:22:06.320 I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

00:22:07.640 Claude is the coolest thing in the world.

00:22:08.940 You tell me in the comments, what is Apple intelligence?

00:22:11.840 It was supposed to be Siri with a brain, 0.94

00:22:13.460 except it's brain dead. 0.78

00:22:14.520 I don't mean, no, just .

00:22:17.740 Somebody on the back end is still creating it.

00:22:19.340 And yes, this is still Dan.

00:22:20.520 I was about to pinch myself,

00:22:21.620 but I don't have a whole lot to pinch.

00:22:22.960 I mean, this is Dan.

00:22:24.720 You probably won't believe it.

00:22:25.900 You'll still write below that,

00:22:27.260 oh, nice AI, Dan.

00:22:28.820 I don't like to type

00:22:29.660 because I type about 80 words per minute,

00:22:31.300 but I talk about 250,000 words a minute.

00:22:34.520 No, I'm just kidding.

00:22:35.360 But I talk fast.

00:22:36.520 I started to feel my voice going.

00:22:37.960 I started way too excited.

00:22:40.420 Three, two, and one.

00:22:42.280 Here's the deal.
