Frequently asked questions

What is an AI stack?

An AI stack is the small set of AI tools you use together every day — like a tech stack for your workflow. Instead of 20 random subscriptions, a good stack covers your core tasks (writing, research, design, automation) with 3–5 tools that complement each other.

How many tools do I actually need?

Four is the sweet spot for most people: one general chatbot, one specialist for your main task, one organization tool, and one automation tool. More than six usually means overlap and wasted subscriptions.

Should I start with free or paid tools?

Start free, upgrade with evidence. Use free tiers for 2–4 weeks, note where you hit limits, then pay only for the tool that removes a real bottleneck. Most paid AI tiers ($10–$20/mo) pay for themselves if the tool saves you even one hour a month.

When should I change my stack?

Review quarterly. Switch when a tool raises prices without adding value, when your main task changes, or when a clearly better alternative appears. Don’t chase every launch — stability in your workflow beats novelty.
