The 6-step stack

  1. 1
    Otter.ai (meeting transcription) →

    Meetings: Transcribe every meeting automatically. Read the full transcript after instead of processing audio in real time. Dramatically reduces meeting fatigue.

    Freemium
  2. 2
    Krisp (noise cancellation) →

    Sensory: AI removes background noise from both ends of every call. Reduces auditory processing load so you can focus on what’s being said rather than filtering sound.

    Freemium
  3. 3
    Grammarly (tone checker) →

    Communication: Grammarly’s tone detector shows how your email reads to others (e.g. “sounds direct” or “sounds urgent”). Use it to calibrate professional register without guessing.

    Freemium
  4. 4
    ChatGPT (scripts & templates) →

    Social scripts: Ask ChatGPT to write templates for difficult workplace situations: requesting accommodations, declining social events, giving feedback, or navigating ambiguous emails.

    Freemium
  5. 5
    Focusmate (body doubling) →

    Deep work: Low-social, structured virtual co-working sessions. Provides accountability and mild social presence without conversation demands or sensory overload.

    Freemium
  6. 6
    Microsoft Copilot →

    Admin reduction: Copilot writes meeting summaries, action lists, and follow-up emails automatically after every call. Eliminates the hours of post-meeting admin that drain autistic professionals.

    Freemium
💡 Accommodation tip: Use ChatGPT to help you draft a formal reasonable adjustments request to HR. Ask it: “Help me write a professional request for [specific accommodation] due to autism.”
