Solo Founder Tech Stack
This stack is for a solo startup founder. No team, just around $100 a month using 5 tools.
I do not use AI UGC to replace real creators. I use it to kill bad hooks fast, find the angles worth spending on, and only film the concepts that already show signs of life.
Workflow stack
The order matters. Start at the top, read down the sequence, and open any step when you want the note behind it.
Generate AI UGC
Best when I need lots of quick ad variations from one offer or landing page so I can test angles before paying real creator rates.
Open tool profilePolish creator cuts
Makes the finished clips feel native to TikTok and Reels with better pacing, on-screen text, and cleaner talking-head edits.
Open tool profilePackage the creative
I finish thumbnails, stat cards, and lightweight overlays here so the ad looks intentional instead of purely machine-generated.

Useful for seeing which hooks create better downstream behavior once the click lands, not just which video gets cheap attention.
