• MindNodeScattered thoughts go on an infinite canvas as a mind map, then flip to Outline view and the same map becomes a structured list. Nodes can turn into tasks when you're ready.
• DraftsOpens straight to a blank page with the keyboard up. Type the thought first, decide later where it goes — actions send the text on to Reminders, mail, a file, anywhere.
• FreeformApple's flexible canvas. Sketch with a finger or Pencil, drop in photos, PDFs, links and stickies, draw diagrams from 700+ shapes. Up to 100 people can brainstorm on one board.
• Readwise ReaderAll the reading in one place: articles, newsletters, RSS, PDFs, EPUBs. Highlight as you go, so what you read this month is there when you need it.
• ObsidianA knowledge base on a folder of plain-text Markdown files, yours forever. Link notes to each other and the graph view shows how your thinking connects.
• Levels.fyiLive salary submissions, broken down into base, bonus and equity, so the number in the offer can be compared with what people at that level are actually paid.
• GlassdoorReviews from people who worked there: culture, leadership, work-life balance, pay. Filter ratings by gender, race and more, and ask the awkward questions anonymously in Bowls.
• BlindVerified employees talking anonymously — layoffs, re-orgs, bonuses, offer evaluations. The private company forums are where you hear what the recruiter won't say.
• SpeekoReal-time feedback on pace, tone and filler words, so the interview, or the conversation you have to say out loud, gets rehearsed first.
• How We FeelName what you're feeling, then spot the patterns as they show up.
• Tiny DecisionsSpin a wheel for the decisions that don't deserve an hour.
• stoic.Morning and evening prompts to get the loop out of your head.
• Day OneWrite it down with photos and audio, in a journal only you can open.
• Linear MobileWhere the team's issues, projects and roadmap live. The phone app is for filing a bug the moment you see it and keeping up with the streams you care about, away from your desk.
• FigmaOpen the design files, play the prototype full screen, leave comments and mention the designer, all from your phone. Mirror a frame from the desktop to see it on a real device.
• LoomRecord your screen or camera with one tap and share the link, so a walkthrough replaces the long email. Time-stamped comments come back on the video.
• NotionNotes, docs, tasks and projects in one workspace. The spec, the meeting notes and the roadmap table can live on the same page, and the AI can answer questions about what's in there.
• Otter Transcribe Voice NotesRecords the meeting and transcribes it live, then writes the summary. Every call is searchable afterwards, so “what did we decide” has an answer.
