We spent the hours. You get the shortcut.
Hi, I'm Pablo Hernández O'Hagan, CEO of Ingenia, a digital agency helping enterprise brands grow faster and with less chaos.
My team and I have been deep in AI testing mode for a while now. Dozens of tools. Some genuinely great, some forgettable, and a few that stopped us mid-demo and made us go "wait, what?" After burning a few weekends sorting through all of it, here's the list worth your time.
We use most of these in-house and with clients. This isn't a roundup written by someone who watched three YouTube videos. It's a field guide from people who live in these tools.
Here are 15 that are changing how we work. And yes, #13 is the one that had the whole team talking.
Clay
A personal CRM that thinks for itself. Clay enriches your contacts automatically, keeps relationships current, and makes outreach feel personal again. We use it to stay on top of our global network without the manual upkeep that usually kills that effort.
Napkin
Napkin takes scattered ideas and connects them visually. For anyone who thinks in big pictures and gets lost in linear notes, it's a genuine unlock. We've used it in strategy workshops where whiteboards just weren't cutting it.
CrewAI
Task delegation, deadlines, progress tracking — all automated. Think of it as a project manager who never calls a meeting when a message would do. Our product teams run tighter with it.
Superhuman
Fast, clean, and weirdly satisfying to use. I'm in my inbox every day and Superhuman is the reason I reach zero instead of just pretending I will. If email is eating your mornings, start here.
Fireflies.ai
Records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings. Every client call, every cross-team sync — captured automatically so nobody has to play secretary. We've caught more than a few things we would've missed otherwise.
ColdMailBot
Cold emails that sound like a person wrote them. A persuasive person. If you're running B2B outreach at any real volume, the quality difference shows up fast.
Highlight
Drop in a PDF or report, get the important stuff pulled out. When a client sends an 80-slide deck with a 24-hour deadline, this is the tool that saves you. We reach for it constantly.
MyMind
Save anything — articles, images, links, ideas — and MyMind sorts it all without you lifting a finger. Our creative team uses it for moodboarding and research. It's the second brain that works.
Ready to Send
Polishes your emails before they go out. Sharper, cleaner, more confident. It's like having a copywriter reviewing your drafts, except it happens in seconds.
Synthesia
Studio-quality videos with AI avatars, no cameras, no crew. We've used it to produce multilingual client onboarding videos in days instead of weeks. For training and internal comms, it's hard to beat.
Blaze
Social posts, blogs, newsletters — all in your brand voice. Built for lean marketing teams that need to publish consistently without sacrificing quality. We've seen it keep small teams punching well above their weight.
Sesame
Voice companions that do things. Think Siri, but useful. It's early-stage, and we're watching it closely for interface design and smart assistant use cases. One to keep an eye on.
Omi
This is the one that made the whole team go quiet. Omi is a neural interface that lets you control apps with your thoughts. Build apps, earn bounties, get hired — with your brain. We're exploring it. Whether you're ready for that or not, it exists right now.
ChatGPT
You already know it. Content, strategy, code, research, brainstorming — it's become the default starting point for a lot of what we do. Our team uses it daily. Probably you do too, and if you don't, that's worth fixing.
Perplexity
Real answers with real citations, in real time. We use it when we need research fast and can't afford to dig through ten tabs to triangulate something basic. It's replaced a significant chunk of our Google searches.
So, Why Are We Telling You This?
Because at Ingenia, we don't just use these tools — we build strategies around them. We help enterprise brands wire AI into real workflows: marketing campaigns, digital platforms, internal operations. That means:
Launching smarter content operations
Automating the work that's eating your team's time
Building AI into products from the ground up
Improving user experience where it matters to your customers
We turn buzzwords into business outcomes.
If your brand is ready to lead instead of catch up, let's talk. Creativity, code, and a lot of clarity — that's what we bring.
