ChatGPT Codex can work with your files, apps, plugins—and even your computer. Convenient? Absolutely. A little invasive? Also yes. 👀

In my latest review, I tested what Codex can actually do, compared the desktop and web experiences, looked at the pricing, and discussed the privacy concerns that cost it an entire point.

My final rating: ⭐ 4 out of 5

Would you give an AI assistant access to your computer if it made your daily work easier?

What if AI could keep working after you closed your laptop?

I tested Claude Cowork to see whether it could actually take work off my plate as a creator and small business owner. I gave it a real marketing task, connected it with Canva, and watched it build a full campaign with very little input from me.

It was impressive, but it also came with some serious tradeoffs, including privacy concerns, fast usage limits, and the fact that there is no free Cowork tier.

My final rating: 4 out of 5

Would you trust an AI assistant with access to your files and business tools if it meant getting hours of your time back?

Automation tools are everywhere right now, but not all of them are actually worth adding to your already crowded list of tabs. 😅

This week on GBRLIFE Reviews, I tested Relay.app — a workflow automation tool that connects your apps, content, and AI into one place.

I built a real workflow, tested how easy it was to use, looked at the pricing, and asked the big question:

Is Relay.app actually useful… or just another tab you’ll forget to open?

My final rating: 3/5 ⭐⭐⭐☆☆

It has a lot of potential, especially if you’re a content creator, podcaster, or someone trying to understand workflows before jumping into AI agents — but the pricing definitely gave me pause.

New review is out now. Go watch the full breakdown. 👀

Question: Are you using any automation tools right now, or are you still doing everything manually?

New GBRLIFE Reviews video is up today!

This week, I tested Claude Console... Anthropic’s direct interface for Claude, agents, API keys, token usage, and automation workflows.

It looks intimidating at first, but the real question is:

Could regular creators, writers, researchers, and business owners actually use it without being coders?

My answer surprised me a little.

Have you tried building AI agents yet, or are you still mostly using regular AI chat tools?

New GBRLIFE Review is live! 🎉

This week I tested Akiflow, a productivity app that claims to bring your tasks, calendar, inbox, planning, and workflow into one place.

And honestly… I get why people like it. It’s clean, organized, and actually feels like it was made for people juggling too many apps.

But it also has a learning curve, the integrations are not perfect, and the price may not make sense for everyone.

GBRLIFE Rating: 3.5 out of 5

Would you rather use one app for everything, or do you prefer separate tools for your calendar, tasks, notes, and planning?

Email marketing sounds simple until you actually open one of these platforms and realize… oh. This is another whole system to manage. 😅

This week on GBRLIFE Reviews, I’m reviewing Omnisend — an email + SMS marketing platform that is honestly really strong for e-commerce stores, Shopify shops, merch, clothing brands, and product-based businesses.

But for creators, bloggers, podcasters, and YouTubers who mostly need a simple newsletter? That’s where it gets a little complicated.

I gave Omnisend a 3 out of 5 because it’s clean, useful, and powerful — but it’s very clearly built with online stores in mind.

Every productivity app right now wants to be your second brain, your AI assistant, your planner, your project manager, and somehow your entire personality.

But what if you just want a clean place to organize what needs to get done?

That’s why I reviewed Trello.

In this week’s GBRLIFE Reviews video, I’m breaking down whether Trello still makes sense in 2026, who it actually works for, and who should probably skip it.

Do you still use Trello, or have you moved on to something like Notion, ClickUp, Asana, Monday, or a regular planner?

New review is up now on GBRLIFE Reviews.
Would you stay with Trello or skip it? 👀

Do you actually plan your day… or do you just make a to-do list and hope for the best? 😅

This week’s GBRLIFE Review is all about Sunsama, a daily planner that tries to help you stop overloading your day and start planning around your actual time.

I tested the daily planning flow, calendar setup, backlog, weekly review, shutdown feature, integrations, and of course… the price.

My big question was simple:

Is Sunsama actually worth paying for, or is it just another productivity app you’ll forget to open?

New review is up now. Go watch it and let me know what you think.


Would you pay for a premium daily planner like Sunsama?

Perplexity made an AI browser called Comet, and I finally tested it.

The idea is interesting because it’s not just an AI search tool anymore. It wants to live inside your actual browser, where you search, shop, read, research, compare, and basically move around the internet every day.

That’s where I’m torn.

I like the research side of it, but I also think an AI browser raises a bigger question:

Would you actually trust an AI-powered browser as your main browser?

My full Comet Browser review goes live today at 6 PM CST but it's up now if you want to be early 😉

Would you use an AI centric browser every day?
