3 AI Tools I’m Loving Right Now (August Edition)

It’s Wednesday — time to slow down, explore, and experiment.
Every week, I test dozens of AI tools across writing, automation, branding, and business building.

These are 3 underrated but insanely useful AI tools I’m loving right now — and why you might want to try them this weekend.

No fluff. No hype. Just tools that actually work.

3 AI Tools I Love

  1. ✍️ Perplexity AI – My Go-To for Research and Clarity

🔗 perplexity.ai

What it does:
Think of it as a blend of ChatGPT + Google. You ask a question, and it gives you a clean, referenced, real-time response with source links.

Why I love it:

Instant summaries with citations

Great for fact-checking while writing

Helps me prep faster for my books, talks, and blog posts

Prompt I use:

“Summarize the latest studies on AI in education. Include 3 key takeaways with sources.”

2. ⚙️ Tiledesk – AI Chatbot + Live Chat in One

🔗 tiledesk.com

What it does:
An open-source customer support platform that combines AI bots + human handoff. Works on websites, WhatsApp, and more.

Why I love it:

  • No-code setup
  • Supports multilingual AI chatbots
  • Great for small businesses, course creators, and startups

How I use it:

  • I’m integrating it into ReThynk AI Lab’s site to handle basic support, product FAQs, and prompt library navigation.

3. 🎥 Opus Clip – AI Video Repurposing for Creators

🔗 opus.pro

What it does:
Takes your long videos and auto-generates short-form viral clips with captions, emojis, highlights, and zooms.

Why I love it:

  • Saves hours of editing
  • Great for YouTube Shorts, Reels, LinkedIn
  • Smart enough to detect “high-energy moments”

How I use it:

I upload podcast episodes or keynotes → Opus finds 2–3 viral moments → Done.
