@lennysan Very interesting to see the dominance of Google Work suite, and at the same time, hearing the amount of complaints on the UX and features.

I'm excited to share the results of my largest scale survey ever, "What's in your stack?" I asked you what tools you use in your day-to-day work. With over 6,500 responses, the results are both surprising and telling. We’re seeing how AI is already transforming people’s work, the methodical disruption of incumbents by beautifully crafted alternatives, and a few seismic shifts in how teams collaborate. Top 10 takeaways: 1. ChatGPT has become as essential as having a laptop. A whopping 90% of respondents use ChatGPT regularly. Only 35% use Claude, and 24% use Gemini. 2. Figma Slides has become a big player in presentations. It's already far ahead of Apple Keynote and closing in on PowerPoint. We’re also seeing new AI-native entrants in this space. 3. As the third-most-used tool overall, Slack continues to crush it. 72% of participants use Slack regularly. It’s only behind ChatGTP and Gmail in the most used tools 🤯 4. The Jira paradox and Linear’s insurgency. 68% of participants use Jira, but it also tops the “we wish we could use a different tool” list. Enter Linear: the fastest-growing alternative to Jira, and already used by over 10% of participants. 5. Cursor and other AI-native integrated development environment (IDE) tools already have a strong foothold. 17% of respondents already use Cursor regularly (launched just two years ago!). 10% of all participants use v0 and Replit. 5% use Bolt. 6. Google Docs remains a go-to for collaboration, but Notion is gaining steam. Notion is seen as “good for everything,” and it’s catching up to the big players, with 37% of respondents preferring it. Notion also came in second place for project management after Jira and fourth place for CRM. 7. Notion and Slack are CRM and customer support surprises. Turns out that even with powerful incumbents, tool flexibility counts for a lot. 8. Figma continues to be the ubiquitous tool for design. 97% of designers report using it as their primary design tool. Canva is still well behind but catching up, thanks to massive popularity with marketers and founders for general design needs. 9. Miro continues to stay ahead of FigJam for virtual whiteboarding, just barely. But FigJam is gaining ground (because everyone’s using Figma…). 10. Three meta-takeaways: The power of bundling, the rise of craft, and the mix-and-match habit. More on this in the post. Don't miss the full report in the comments below. And a big thank you to @noamseg for crafting, running, and synthesizing the results of this survey 👏👏👏

On the day of the U.S. Presidential Inauguration of Trump, a new Vice-President will also be sworn in. I read JD Vance memoir called “Hillbilly Elegy” recently and shared some interesting insights in my newsletter. I really liked this book! mynightstand.substack.com/p/36-my-nights…

@ashleevance Amazon has been trying to figure out how to replace its workers with robots for a decade. Not saying they're necessarily trying to solve the same problem, but Tesla isn't the only one with some built in efficiencies.

The next big breakthrough in AI is AI Agents. This is when AI goes from being used as an assistant to chat with, to using AI to accomplish complete tasks that a human might otherwise have to perform. This moves AI from being a "read-only" operation to fundamentally a "read/write" operation. Ultimately, this brings us much closer to the full promise of AI, in particular in the enterprise, where AI can begin to complete any part of a workflow, and we're already seeing examples today of Agents that write entire software applications or respond to customer support tickets. Today, in many ways Agents are where cloud computing was in 2007; that is to say, very early. When you extrapolate this trend out over a decade, we can start to imagine what an entirely different enterprise operation might look like. We can easily picture having highly proficient Agents available for every function in an organization, enabling important work to get done far faster than today. The impact of Agents on the enterprise really has no limit, but 3 big implications stand out to me: 1. Businesses of all sizes will have access to resources and specialized skills that they wouldn't otherwise tap into. Bill Joy, the cofounder of Sun Microsystems, famously said "no matter who you are, most of the smartest people work for someone else." Especially for smaller companies, this has always been a disadvantage. Your larger competitors will always be able to tap into a talent pool that you can't afford or access. Whether it's specialized legal support, or scaling a sales team, AI Agents will enable companies of all sizes the same access to resources that were once only the privilege of a large organization. 2. Companies will be able to re-allocate energy and talent to increasingly more differentiating and higher impact work. We know that for various parts of a company, our time is wasted with tasks that computers *should* be remarkably good at solving, but just haven't been able to today. As AI Agents become more robust, many of these activities that we drain our time on can be automated, and we can repurpose time and energy to driving more innovation, getting closer to our customers, better supporting customers, and more. 3. As AI Agents play a meaningful role in the operations of a company, this changes the nature of the IT function, making it even more strategic than today. Today, IT is often focused on enabling software for existing workers or workflows in a company. In the future, a company will go to IT for supplying intellectual horsepower as well to the enterprise. Imagine going to IT not just to say "I need software to help my engineers build my product" but instead, "I need software to engineer my product". You can squint and picture in the coming years even a "Workday for AI" where you manage Agents that are running around augmenting the operations of a company. And this is just the beginning...
