Anthropic's agentic coding tool for developers. Claude Code understands your codebase, edits files, runs commands, and helps you ship faster.
The workhorse behind our builds. In Episode 002 it built GotoBuild's working AI workout-plan generator live, and BrandSauce.io's entire backend runs on it. All four operators use it daily.
Genuine substitutes for Claude Code that we've also run on stage:
Paid; included with Claude paid plans / usage-based.
The operators used it in Episode 001 to custom development and backend work; Alec Saluga used it in Episode 002 to built the working workout-plan generator live; Justin Novak used it in Episode 003 to justin’s daily driver, used as the contrast to an always-on OpenClaw agent; Justin Novak used it in Episode 004 to his daily driver for hands-on building inside VS Code.
Tools we've also used live that can stand in for Claude Code: Codex.
