Software I use, gadgets I love, and other things I recommend.

Here's the gear and software I rely on daily to build Achilleus, run outbound systems, and stay sharp.

Workstation

  • Dell XPS 15 (7590)

    15.6" OLED display, 9th-gen Intel Core i7, thin and powerful enough to handle everything from running Clay workflows to shipping code. The screen alone makes it worth it.

  • Logitech MX Master 4

    The best mouse I've ever used. MagSpeed scrolling, multi-device switching, and an ergonomic shape that survives long sessions without complaint. Once you use it, everything else feels wrong.

  • Logitech MX Brio 4K Webcam

    4K at 30fps or crisp 1080p at 60fps. Makes a real difference on calls — clients notice when you don't look like you're broadcasting from a potato.

  • Sony WH-1000XM6

    Sony's best noise-cancelling headphones yet. The ANC is aggressive enough to disappear into deep work in any environment. LE Audio keeps latency low, multi-point switching is seamless, and they're comfortable enough to wear all day without thinking about them.

Development tools

  • Claude Code

    My main coding environment. Handles everything from scaffolding features to debugging — faster than any IDE workflow I've tried.

  • VS Code

    Still the fallback for quick edits and reviewing diffs. Hard to beat for sheer ecosystem depth.

GTM & Outbound

  • Clay

    The backbone of every outbound system I build. Enrichment, waterfall logic, AI personalization — all in one place. There's nothing else like it.

Productivity

  • Notion

    Where everything lives — product roadmap, research notes, outbound sequences. Flexible enough to not get in the way.

  • Slack

    Where async work actually happens. Keeps client and team communication in one place without the noise of email.

  • 1Password

    The only password manager I trust. Especially important when you're managing credentials across multiple SaaS tools and client accounts.
