๐ฆ Stop Sitting Like a Shrimp All Day
#105 NTSOT | Discover the best tools of the week! AI people search, posture coach for your webcam, and polished video messages from one bad take.
Hey friends!
Alphabet's Q1 results were released on April 30. Revenue grew 22%, the fastest in nearly four years, with Google Cloud crossing $20 billion in quarterly revenue for the first time.
The same night, Microsoft forecast $190 billion in AI infrastructure spending for 2026. Two trillion-dollar companies are pouring capital into the same race, and the gap between their tools and what a solo operator needs keeps widening.
The five tools in this edition close some of those gaps.
AI agents to source leads, run your iPhone, edit your demo videos, and even watch your posture.
Lean, focused, priced for a single person seeking leverage.

It also runs email sequences, replacing hours of sourcing with one prompt.
