Why I Stopped Using 10 AI Tools and Now Use Only 3

I was paying for 10 AI tools. Over $200 per month.

My workflow was broken. I was spending more time switching tools than doing actual work.

Tool 1: ChatGPT and Claude for Thinking and Writing

Everything lives in one place. My content calendar, SOPs, and ideas.

Notion AI auto summarizes my meetings and creates my to-do list.

One tool for thumbnails, LinkedIn carousels, and decks. I closed 3 other design apps.

Morning: 30 minutes planning with ChatGPT Deep Work: 3 hours writing in Notion with AI help Design: 30 minutes in Canva

Step 1: Write down all your AI tools. Step 2: Keep only the ones you use for more than 5 hours a week. Step 3: Delete the rest for 7 days. You will not miss them.

Less tools means more focus. More focus means more output.

AI success is not about collecting more tools. It is about building a simple system.
