ClickUp is a converged workspace. That means your tasks, documents, chat, and AI all live in one app instead of being spread across five or six different tools that don't talk to each other. When everything is in one place, nothing gets lost between apps and everyone has the full picture without asking "where was that again?" At its core, it's where you manage work. Create tasks, assign them to people, set due dates, track progress. View everything as a list, a board, a calendar, a Gantt chart, or a timeline, whatever suits the way you think. Build automations to handle the repetitive stuff, create forms that turn responses into tasks automatically, track time, set goals, and report on it all from dashboards. It connects to over 1,000 other tools you already use (some directly, some via external automation tools). The AI (called Brain) is built right into the workspace, so it already knows your projects, tasks, conversations, and documents. Ask it questions about your work and get real answers based on what's actually happening. It writes content, summarises threads, generates project updates, builds automations, and even runs tasks on autopilot through AI agents you can set up yourself. The more your team works in ClickUp, the smarter it gets. Works in your browser, on desktop (Mac and Windows), and on your phone (iPhone and Android). Free plan available with unlimited tasks and members. Paid plans start at $7/month per person.

Cap is a screen recording tool that does what Loom does, without the monthly price tag creeping up on you. Record your screen, your face, or both, and get a shareable link in seconds. If you want something more polished, flip into Studio Mode and tidy it up before you send it. Your recordings can be saved to your own Google Drive, so they're yours and not locked inside someone else's platform. It's free to use on your computer, with a paid plan (~$8/mo) if you want extras like cloud sharing, automatic captions, and team features.

Cardly lets you send real, physical greeting cards without going to a shop, buying a stamp, or writing by hand. Pick from over 13,000 designs by independent artists, type your message, and their technology makes it look genuinely handwritten. They print it on quality card stock, pop it in a kraft envelope with a real stamp, and post it for you. Want your own design? Create it in Canva or whatever you use, upload it, and they'll print that instead. Full control over every panel so it can be completely on-brand. Save your message as a template so next time you just answer a few quick questions (recipient's name, a personal line or two) and you're done. For the more tech-minded: Cardly connects to Zapier, so you can automate the whole thing. New client signs up? Card goes out automatically. Works from any device. Send one card or thousands. Schedule in advance so you never forget a birthday again. Individual cards start from around $6 AUD including postage within Australia. No subscriptions or minimum orders. The handwriting effect is surprisingly convincing. The designs are far more interesting than what you'll find at the newsagent, and once you've set up templates or automations, the ongoing effort is basically zero. We don't get anything for recommending Cardly. No affiliate link, no kickback. We just genuinely love the quality and service from their team.

It learns how you write and adjusts the tone depending on whether you're sending a work email or a quick message to a friend. Works on Mac, Windows, and iPhone. Free to start, with a Pro plan ($12/mo) for faster, more accurate transcription and unlimited smart features.
