🗓️ What do you actually want AI for each week?
Think backwards from what you've tried: your stack only needs to support the work you genuinely plan to do — not the entire internet's idea of a "serious AI workflow."
Start with your real weekly jobs. Most people have two or three repeated tasks where AI genuinely helps. A setup designed for those specific tasks is more useful than a comprehensive setup you never actually open.
The four categories of work most people end up using AI for:
🧰 Choose your smallest workable setup
You are not choosing your forever stack. You are choosing the smallest setup that gets the work done right now. Click one to select it.
💳 Know your payment trigger
Do not pay because the internet told you to. Pay when the free or simple route is genuinely getting in the way of useful work.
The rule: stay free until the free path becomes annoying, then pay for the single thing that removes the biggest blocker. Don't subscribe to three services because you might need them.

You don't need to know every tool. You need to know which two you'll open next week, what for, and when paying would make sense. That's the whole stack question answered.
