AI AUTOMATION HUB
Tools Rick Actually Uses. Tested. Real. No Fluff.
Every tool on this page has been through the filter: Does it save meaningful time or make meaningful money? If it doesn't — it doesn't make the list.
The Foundation Stack
Three tools. Every business Rick runs depends on them.
Skool
Community + Courses. One platform.
The Unkillable runs on Skool. Courses, community, accountability — all in one place. No algorithm. No noise. Just people building alongside each other.
"I chose Skool because it keeps the community focused on building — not scrolling. That matters when your members have limited energy."
Try Skool →HeyGen
AI video. No camera required.
Rick has a spinal cord injury. Getting on camera takes energy he doesn't always have. HeyGen creates professional video with an AI avatar — write the script, it delivers it.
"No camera. No lights. No energy drain. For anyone building on a body that fights them — this removes a real barrier."
Try HeyGen →GoHighLevel
The operating system of the business.
CRM, email, SMS, funnels, automation, booking, follow-up — all in one. RCM Digital Media runs entirely on GHL. It replaced seven tools with one.
"Before GHL I had seven different tools doing seven different things. Now I have one. That is not an exaggeration."
Try GoHighLevel →TITAN PHOENIX
The AI engine that runs the rebuild.
TITAN PHOENIX is Rick's proprietary multi-agent AI system — 13 specialized agents working across two architectures: 7 Left Brain analytical agents and 6 Right Brain creative agents. It handles content, strategy, research, automation, and client systems — running on days Rick can't.
Built on n8n, deployed on Google Cloud Run, and accessible through Rick's Desk — the custom admin portal at RCM Digital Media. This is not a third-party tool. It was built from scratch because nothing on the market did what was needed.

Perplexity
AI search that pulls from the live web — with sources. When Rick needs to know what's happening right now, this is the first thing he opens. No hallucinations. No outdated answers. Current information with citations. One tool. One job. Does it better than anything else.
"Perplexity is my research tool. It searches the live web and shows me exactly where the information came from. When I need what's happening right now — this is what I open."
The AI Landscape
Information only — Rick uses all four. No single winner. Each has a job.
