What we use to build products with AI, and what we're learning from
What We're Building
This is our living reference library—the tools we actually use and the resources that have shaped our understanding of building with AI. It's not comprehensive and it's definitely opinionated. We're sharing what works for us in the hope it helps you navigate the overwhelming landscape of AI tools and information.
Everything here is tested in production. We don't recommend tools we haven't used extensively, and we don't link to content we haven't read thoroughly. This page will evolve as we learn—expect updates, changes of opinion, and new discoveries.
