Hey creator friends 💜

Towards the end of 2022 (just before ChatGPT hit the mainstream), I started using a tool called Jasper AI.

I immediately had this feeling that AI was about to change everything - how we work, how we create, how we build businesses. So I went all in.

I spent 2023 learning ChatGPT, testing other AI tools and trying to figure out what actually worked.

Then in 2024, I doubled my income in 6 months with AI. This was through 1:1 services in my copywriting and content writing business.

In the last 4 months, I decided to use AI to grow my audience and start creating and selling digital products too.

That has led to 24,000 TikTok followers and almost 2,000 email subscribers.

One of the things that's helped me most is finding the right AI tool for each specific job.

So in today’s newsletter I’m sharing the best tools I’ve found (all tried & tested) in a handy AI tools cheatsheet for you. No ads or affiliate links - just tools I genuinely love.

TL;DR - today’s lineup:

1. One Smart Strategy 💡: Stop using ChatGPT for everything - try these 7 AI tools instead.

2. Copy-Paste Prompt  🤖: Let ChatGPT predict your best chance at making $1million

3. Piping  Hot  AI  Tea 🫖: 4 must-know stories - AI influencers on Instagram and AI demonetization on YouTube...

Stop Using ChatGPT For Everything: 7 AI Tools You Should Try

*None of the below are ads or affiliate links. I have tried & tested all these tools and genuinely love them.

LLMs (Large Language Models)

Let's start with what most people think of when we say "AI tools."

LLMs are basically AI that understands and generates human-like text (and now images too). They're the chatbots everyone's talking about.

1. ChatGPT: My Strategic Workhorse & Virtual Assistant

This is my go-to for a wide range of things. I see it almost as a business and life Personal Assistant and Coach. I use it for:

• Idea generation and brainstorming

• Bouncing ideas back and forth when I'm stuck (business and life)

• Coming up with strategies for my business

• Quick coaching when I need a push

• Everyday life stuff (finding recipes, answering random legal questions, figuring out why tech or home appliances aren’t working, any sort of planning etc.)

Honestly? It's replaced Google for me. No more filtering through ads, SEO-optimised fluff, and sponsored content. Just straight-to-the-point answers.

2. Claude: My Creative Writing Companion

For anything to do with creative or strategic writing, I’ve found that Claude is 100x better than ChatGPT. Whenever I need help with:

• Writing this newsletter

• Copywriting that actually converts

• Content that sounds human (not robotic)

• Expressing my messy ideas in compelling and creative ways

Claude just gets it. The difference in writing quality compared with ChatGPT is truly insane. I feel like more people need to discover Claude!

3. Perplexity: Research on Steroids

When I need to do complex research or pull sourced content for articles, this is my secret weapon. It finds information from all over the place, synthesises it from multiple sources and actually gives you citations.

It’s been a star tool for a series of articles I’ve been writing for a local newspaper back home in Malta about the phenomenon of shared mobility and ride-hailing apps.

I used it to conduct some really niche research to support the ideas in my article and it even gave me ideas on integrating the findings naturally into the text.

Here’s one of the articles if you’re curious:

4. Gemini: The Visual Translator

I only recently started dabbling with Google’s Gemini and it has some unique features I love.

It’s my new favourite tool for turning boring articles, blog posts, or reports into stunning infographics and visual reports with interactive elements. Perfect for making complex information actually digestible:

Video & Design Tools

This is a broad category of tools that I use for help with graphic design, video editing and content creation.

5. Canva: The Ultimate AI Design Studio

Yes, it's a design tool that’s been around for a while. But the AI features they keep adding are becoming absolutely wild:

• Magic Resize adapts content for every platform instantly

• Brand Kit keeps everything consistent across designs

• Magic Write creates copy inside beautiful designs that sounds like you

• Not to mention Canva Sheets that brings AI + design into spreadsheets, text to video, text to image and a huge list of more features.

6. Descript: Your Long-Form AI Video Editor

Descript basically eliminates the years-long video editing learning curve that was previously the issue if you wanted to create any sort of long-form content, for YouTube for example.

Its main feature is that it allows you to edit videos by editing the text transcript (like simply editing a Word doc).

But there’s also a huge list of AI features inside it too: like creating highlight or social media clips from long videos, eye-contact alignment (so that you can read a script but still appear to look at the camera), eliminate filler words and sooo much more.

I used it to edit my course videos and it made the process INCREDIBLY quick and easy.

7. Captions App: Your Social Media AI Video Editor

I love the video captioning features of this app, and it makes editing short social media videos really quick and easy.

But the really mind-blowing feature is its AI video editing capability.

It can produce professionally edited videos in minutes, all with AI-generated stock images, transitions, sounds and graphics.

Here’s an example:

Build Your Own AI Toolkit

If you really want to take your productivity to the next level, start building your AI toolkit strategically (outside of just using ChatGPT).

But instead of just adopting every new AI tool that drops, just think about:

• What tasks eat up most of your time?

• Where do you get stuck most often?

• What tasks could be delegated to AI and what tools are best to do that?

I’ve estimated that these tools have saved me around 15 hours per week. Those extra 15 hours meant:

• A higher income

• Building a side business alongside my 9-5

• Growing a TikTok following that opens doors I never imagined

• Actually having time for the things that matter

And honestly? I feel like I'm just getting started.

So I recommend starting here:

1. Pick ONE new AI tool (from this list or otherwise)

2. Use it for ONE specific task this week

3. Track how much time you save

That's it: One tool. One task. One week.

Easiest Path to $1M

I have a simple one for you this week that yields really interesting results:

Based on everything you know about me, what’s the easiest way for me to make $1 million?

Because ChatGPT is learning more about you with every interaction, this prompt taps into everything it already knows (your skills, strengths, and interests) and gives you a surprisingly insightful answer.

When I ran it, it basically described my entire business model, which made me feel a lot more confident that I’m on the right path.

Try it yourself, see what it says, hit reply and let me know how accurate it feels for you.
