⚡ Alex's Gear

The actual tools I use daily to write saas.pet reviews. Every piece was tested across 154 reviews. Affiliate links — I earn a small commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you.

Primary setup

MacBook Pro 16" M3 Max
I write all 154 reviews on this. 64GB RAM handles the entire saas.pet codebase + a local LLM + multiple browser tabs without breaking a sweat.
LG UltraFine 5K Monitor
2 screens, side-by-side. Code on left, browser on right. 5K resolution means I can fit an entire review without scrolling.
Keychron Q1 Pro
Tactile switches, daily driver. Mechanical keyboard for 6-hour review sessions. The feel matters when you write 5,000 words a day.
Logitech MX Master 3S
For the 6-hour review sessions. The horizontal scroll wheel is underrated for navigating long review drafts.

AI tools I actually use

Plaud Note AI Recorder
Auto-transcribes saas.pet meetings with developers and PMs. The Whisper transcription accuracy is 95%+ for English.
Sony WH-1000XM5
Noise cancelling for focus. 8 hours of battery life means I can review tools all day without distractions.
Loona PetBot
Robot sidekick for the office. It roams around while I review, good company during long sessions.

Why I list this here

saas.pet is free, no paywall, no paid tier, no affiliate-driven content decisions. Every review I write is independent. The affiliate links on this page are the only monetization — they let me spend more time testing and writing instead of finding sponsors. If you find my reviews useful, using these links is one way to say thanks. No pressure.
