Rishit Patel's tech stack to build 2 AI startups
Rishit Patel is the founder of World of AI and aitools.fyi
These are all of the software tools he's using to build these businesses along with how much they cost they cost him per month and thought process behind using them.
1. ChatGPT
Cost: $20 / month
Score: 85 / 100
I use chatgpt for improving my emails and a lot of writing improvements as I’m not a native English speaker/writer. I also use it for writing my newsletter for aitools.fyi. ChatGPT has definitely got regressive month by month. I don’t like that they discontinued the plugins. I don;t like that their GPT store is filled with spam. The most important thing that I like about ChatGPT and is the reason of their success is ease of use and wide availability across geographical locations and devices.
2. PDFPeer
Cost: $0 / month
Score: 90 / 100
I hate reading, so whenever I have something that I have to read, I just upload it to PDFPeer and I ask questions to the document!
3. Documenso
Cost: $0 / month
Score: 80 / 100
For sending documents/contracts for signing. A really good free alternative to docusign and PandaDoc.
4. Cursor
Cost: $5-10 / month
Score: 90 / 100
I have replaced VSCode with Cursor as my primary code editor! It’s really good with GPT-4!
5. CivitAI
Cost: $5 / month
Score: 70 / 100
CivitAI is amazing as it has Image Generation models from all over the world! I use it usually to generate featured images and other images for my websites! Because it has too many models, it’s very hard to find the perfect one! You’re really spoiled for choices.
6. X
Cost: $16 / month
Score: 100 / 100
Twitter must be the most important tool in my stack because most of my learnings come from there and I don’t think my company would have existed if my AI Avatar app in September 2022 was brutally trolled by indie hackers because the landing page for it was very close to levelsio’s app in terms of design.
7. Github Copilot
Cost: $10 / month
Score: 75 / 100
I don’t use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V because I have Copilot that is basically smarter copy paste!
8. Beehiiv
Cost: $100 / month
Score: 75 / 100
9. Tally
Cost: $0/ month
Score: 98 / 100
I just love the simplicity of Tally Forms and the fact that it has a free forever plan. I use it across all of my projects to collect data. I also love the husband-wife duo behind the company!
10. Zoho
Cost: $30 / month
Score: 80 / 100
A simple accounting software that is cheap. And I already used it in my past job, so I went for it.
11. Trello
Cost: $0 / month
Score: 80 / 100
Trello is really good UI wise and it’s not so powerful and I love it as it’s less cluttered and doesn’t have fancy power-ups just breaks the UI.
11. Ahrefs
Cost: $99 / month
Score: 70 / 100
Total Cost Per Month: $290
