The Tech Stack of Pifo

Running a one-person foundation demands a lean, clean machine. That's the driving force behind my tech stack for #PiFo. Every tool I choose serves a purpose: to amplify my impact without drowning in complexity.

At the heart of our community engagement is WhatsApp. It's not flashy, but it's where our people are, especially here in India. Simplicity wins the day.

Figma is my creative playground. As a designer, I love how it lets me bring ideas to life, from slides to visuals, all in one place. Taking it one step forward from Figma, Websites and Blogs in Framer. Efficiency meets creativity.

To keep the gears turning smoothly, I rely on Google Workspace. Now with Gem - Gemini Advanced (also Projects - Claude) they act as my virtual assistants, helping me juggle tasks and stay organized. Always looking for ways to work smarter, not harder. But I'm selective - each addition needs to earn its place.

The other not-so-sexy parts of running operations like accounting invoicing and more will be taken care by Zoho Books. They understand India and its complexity.

I believe this lean toolkit will enable me to scale impact without scaling complexity. It's a work in progress, always evolving. What tools have you found indispensable in your journey? I'm all ears for insights that could refine this one-person powerhouse.
