What AI tool looked useless at first but became part of your daily workflow?
I used to ignore a lot of AI tools because most of them felt like hype with a nice landing page.
But recently, I started using one small AI workflow for organizing messy notes after client calls, and now I honestly don’t want to go back. It takes the transcript, pulls out tasks, separates client requests from internal notes, and gives me a clean summary.
It made me realize that the best AI use cases are not always the flashy ones. Sometimes it is just removing one annoying task from your day.
So I wanted to ask:
What AI tool, agent, or automation did you think was overrated at first, but later became genuinely useful?
And what do you use it for?
