monday.com
Boards you can shape into whatever the work is
monday.com is a work platform whose boards can be bent into a content calendar, a sponsorship pipeline or a client tracker without writing anything. Columns carry types, automations fire on a status change, and the views on top of the same data are what make it readable to somebody who did not build it. The free plan is capped at two seats, which rules out most teams and suits a solo operator well. Paid plans are billed per seat with a minimum seat count, so the real entry price is higher than the headline.

Zoom
The call everyone can already join
Zoom is the video call most guests will not have to install anything to attend, which is the whole argument for using it over something better. For a creator it is the interview, the client call and the coaching session, and the local recording it writes for each participant is what makes it usable as a source for an edit. The free plan caps a group meeting at forty minutes. Paid plans are per host, and the add-ons for large webinars and cloud storage are priced separately from the seat.
