I Spent a Year Testing Every AI Tool. Here's What Actually Works Well.

In partnership with

For twelve months, I've been testing every AI tool that promises to revolutionize your business. Most are garbage. Some are game-changers.

The difference will make or break your next decade. Here's what I learned: AI isn't about replacing humans. It's about amplifying the right humans while making the wrong ones irrelevant.

ChatGPT-4o remembers everything. It's like having a business strategist who never forgets a conversation, never takes a vacation, never asks for a raise. Tell it you want to sell flowers online, and it generates a 12-page market research report that would cost you thousands and weeks to produce. The compound effect is insane. As you grow, it grows with you.

Grok pulls from the real-time chaos of Twitter. While other models are stuck in yesterday's data, Grok knows what happened five minutes ago. When smart people tweet about concepts you don't understand, click the Grok button. Instant explanation. Information asymmetry is the ultimate competitive advantage. Speed of learning determines speed of earning.

Google's Gemini codes better than most engineers. My development team switched from their previous favorite to Gemini overnight. When code is one of the four leverage points for wealth creation, better code means better margins. Faster builds mean faster launches. Faster launches mean market dominance.

DeepSeek cuts costs by 95%. What costs fifteen dollars on ChatGPT costs fifty-five cents on DeepSeek. Margins matter. Every dollar saved on intelligence is a dollar earned in profit. The Chinese model that's crushing American pricing assumptions.

ChatGPT's O3 model turned my QuickBooks mess into executive-level insights in five minutes. Revenue retention analysis that would take consultants weeks to deliver. Beautiful graphs. Clear recommendations. Thousands saved. Decisions accelerated.

Claude writes like a human, codes like a machine. It creates workflows that coach your entire team daily. It builds leaderboards that gamify performance. It generates work that previously didn't exist because no human had time to do it consistently.

The pattern is clear: AI doesn't replace work. It creates new categories of work while eliminating old ones. The middle is disappearing. Average performers using average tools will become average unemployed.

Elite performers using elite AI will become unreasonably wealthy. The tools exist. The question isn't whether AI will change everything.

The question is whether you'll be among the people it changes everything for, or the people it changes everything to.

The choice is yours. The window is closing.
