Systeme.io
Best for Solopreneurs

Systeme.io

SurferSEO
Best SEO Tool

Calendly
Most Popular

Calendly

Calendly eliminates back-and-forth scheduling completely on the free plan, but if you need to accept payments at booking or send reminder sequences, you will need the $10 per month paid plan.

Productivity ★ 4.7
From $0/month
Ada
Enterprise Leader

Ada

Stop answering the same support tickets and start resolving them

Customer Support ★ 4.7
From Custom
Make
Best for Power Users

Make

The most cost-effective automation platform for technical founders, but expect a 3-hour learning curve before your first real workflow is live.

Automation ★ 4.7
From $0/mo
ClickUp
Top Rated

ClickUp

The most feature-complete free project management tool (software for organising tasks, deadlines, and team responsibilities in one place) available, but its sheer depth can overwhelm small teams who just need a simple task list.

Project Management ★ 4.7
From $0/mo
Canva
Most Popular

Canva

The best design tool for non-designers, but many of the most polished templates are locked behind the paid plan and you will encounter them constantly on the free tier.

Design ★ 4.7
From $0/mo
Clockify
Free Forever

Clockify

Clockify's free plan has no user limit and no time entry limit, making it the strongest free time tracker available, but the reporting and invoicing features that make it truly useful require a paid plan from $3.99 per user per month.

Productivity ★ 4.7
From $0/month
Loom
Most Popular

Loom

Loom's free plan caps videos at 5 minutes, which covers most async updates perfectly, but you will need the Business plan at $12.50 per month if you want longer recordings or custom branding.
