## Kits (top first by category)

### Inbox triage
- [Superhuman AI Inbox](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k1): Superhuman; ~$30/mo est.; score 7.5/10. Fastest path to a calmer inbox with almost zero setup; price is the drawback.
- [Gmail + Zapier + ChatGPT labeler](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k2): Gmail, Zapier, ChatGPT; $0–40/mo est.; score 7.5/10. Flexible and cheap at low volume; needs a little no-code wiring.
- [Shortwave AI assistant](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k3): Shortwave, Gmail; $0–25/mo est.; score 7.5/10. Strong free tier for Gmail users; Gmail-only.

### Lead research
- [Perplexity account research](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k6): Perplexity, Google Sheets; $0–20/mo est.; score 7.7/10. Cheapest and easiest; good for small lists, not scale.
- [Apollo + ChatGPT](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k5): Apollo, ChatGPT; $0–60/mo est.; score 7.5/10. Huge database with a usable free tier; personalization is manual.
- [Clay enrichment table](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k4): Clay, Google Sheets; $0–150+/mo est.; score 7.3/10. Best results for serious outbound; learning curve and credits add up.

### Coding / vibe coding
- [Cursor agent workflow](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k7): Cursor, GitHub Copilot; $0–20+/mo est.; score 8.2/10. Polished IDE-native agent loop; the default pick for most vibe coders.
- [Lovable + Supabase app builder](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k9): Lovable, Supabase; $0–25/mo est.; score 7.6/10. Idea-to-live-app fastest for non-coders; less control over code.
- [Claude Code in the terminal](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k8): Claude Code, VS Code; $20+/mo est.; score 7.3/10. Very strong on large refactors; terminal-first and usage costs vary.

### Video editing
- [Descript text-based editing](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k10): Descript; $0–35/mo est.; score 8.1/10. Editing video like a doc is the biggest time saver for talking-head content.
- [DaVinci Resolve + ElevenLabs](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k11): DaVinci Resolve, ElevenLabs; $0–30/mo est.; score 7.5/10. Pro-grade results for gaming/film edits; steep learning curve.
- [CapCut + Runway](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k12): CapCut, Runway; $0–40/mo est.; score 7.3/10. Great for short-form and stylized edits; generative credits cost extra.

### Content repurposing / clips
- [Opus Clip auto-shorts](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k13): Opus Clip; $0–30/mo est.; score 7.6/10. One-link-in, many-shorts-out; clip picks still need a human check.
- [Riverside Magic Clips](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k14): Riverside; $0–30/mo est.; score 7.3/10. Ideal if you already record there; less useful for imported gameplay.
- [Descript + Buffer pipeline](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k15): Descript, Buffer, ChatGPT; $0–50/mo est.; score 7.2/10. More control over clip quality and posting; more manual steps.

- [MEE6 moderation suite](https://kitrank.dev/#kit=k18): MEE6, Discord; $0–12/mo est.; score 7.6/10. Simplest dashboard; best features sit behind premium.
