I just cancelled Zapier. And OpenAI. And Sendgrid. And ClickUp

I just cancelled Zapier. And OpenAI. And Sendgrid. And ClickUp.

Here's what I was paying every month:
Zapier — $49
OpenAI API — $30
Sendgrid — $20
ClickUp — $19
Total: $118/month. Just to automate basic workflows.

And I still had to:
— Build visual flows manually
— Connect my own AI model
— Set up my own email sender
— Switch between 4 different tools
— Debug when something broke

Last week I switched everything to MoodLens To-do.
I typed: "When a new task is created, send an email to my client telling them we started working on it."

That's it. No flows. No drag and drop. No API keys. No Zapier account.
MoodLens has the best LLM built in. Image generation built in. Video generation built in. Email sending built in. All inside the same tool where my tasks, board, docs, and client portal live.

Everything I was paying $118/month for replaced by one conversation. For $59/month.
