A startup moves at the speed of its decisions. Here's what we use to make ours faster.
A startup moves at the speed of its decisions. Here's what we use to make ours faster.
As a founder, my time goes into speaking with customers, making product decisions, hiring, fundraising, and keeping the team moving in the same direction. Every tool that removes friction from that process compounds over time.
These are the ones I actually use every day:
@Willow a voice-first productivity tool for rapidly dictating emails, Slack messages, and everyday communication, an incredible time saver.
@Slack for keeping the team connected and decisions documented in real time. The right channel structure means nothing gets lost and everyone stays aligned without unnecessary meetings.
@Notion for storing knowledge, SOPs, and everything the team needs to stay aligned as we grow. Structure from day one saves enormous time later.
@HubSpot for keeping customer relationships, pipeline, conversations, and follow-ups organized. Every unlogged conversation is future pain - we learned that the hard way.
@Figma for turning product ideas into something the team can test and learn from fast. The shorter the distance from idea to prototype, the faster we improve.
None of these are magic. But together they remove friction so that the team can focus on building.
The biggest benefit of all of these combined is simple: they shorten the distance between learning something and acting on it.
That's what allows us at @ReactWise to move fast, learn from our customers, adapt, and keep building a product that the world's best process chemists trust - serving some of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies from day one.
