Your product builder’s starter pack keeps getting better. In this episode, we continue the guide to getting maximum value from the Product Pass, with seven tools that have reshaped how I prototype, research, take notes, manage email, and move faster every single day.

There’s also a new perk for Insiders: 40% off Stripe Atlas to go from idea to incorporated startup without the tax/legal slog.

In this episode, you’ll learn

• Why Lovable has become my go-to for vibe-coding apps and prototypes

• How Bolt plugs into frontier coding agents so you can keep your favorite setup and still ship fast

• How Granola quietly captures meetings from your device audio and turns notes into shareable, searchable summaries

• What makes ChatPRD a PM-native copilot for specs, templates, and Linear workflows

• Five Superhuman power moves beyond inbox zero

• Everyday Raycast workflows that make it an instant Spotlight replacement

• Why Perplexity’s Comet browser became my default for deep research and agentic browsing

• Plus a bunch of practical examples that you can copy
