Uses

The hardware, editor, and software I actually use — not aspirational, just the daily kit. Inspired by uses.tech.

Hardware

  • Laptop — Windows 10 desktop / dev box. Yes, Windows. Most of the work happens in the terminal anyway.
  • External monitor — one large display, vertical Slack/email window on the side.
  • Phone — iOS, mostly for testing OneBookPlus and reading.
  • Keyboard — mechanical, tactile switches. Quiet enough for calls.

Editor & terminal

  • Codetta — my own editor. ~30 MB, native, BYOK AI panel built-in. I dogfood it daily; it's why it exists.
  • Bash on Windows for shell scripting, with PowerShell as fallback.
  • Claude Code CLI — signed in via my Claude Pro subscription, used everywhere from inside Codetta.
  • Git with simple, no-aliases workflow. Conventional commits.

SEO & analytics

  • Google Search Console + BigQuery bulk data export — the ground truth.
  • Looker Studio for client-facing dashboards.
  • Ahrefs for backlink + keyword discovery.
  • Screaming Frog for technical audits.
  • Internal AI SEO platform built at Supple — the moat that replaces 10+ disparate tools.

Browser & extensions

  • Chrome as the primary, Firefox for separate identity contexts.
  • SEO Pro — quick on-page audit.
  • Detailed SEO — structured-data inspection.
  • Wappalyzer — tech stack identification.
  • 1Password — the only password manager I trust.
  • Full curated list at /projects/seo-toolbox/.

SaaS & cloud

  • OneBookPlus for invoicing, CRM, bookings — eating my own dog food.
  • Google Workspace for everything email/calendar/docs.
  • Anthropic API + Claude Pro for AI work.
  • BigQuery + Cloud Run for data warehousing and serverless workloads.
  • GitHub for source, npm for package distribution.

Phone & daily

  • OneBookPlus iOS app — daily testing, real usage.
  • Apple Notes for capture — nothing fancier sticks for me.
  • Spotify for the SIA podcast and a deep-focus playlist.
