High-Signal // AI Tools Atlas v2

The full stack: essentials you must know + alpha you don't

220 AI tools scored on two independent axes — Signal (real-world leverage) and Alpha (how under-the-radar). Mainstream “Essentials” and deep-cut “Alpha” live in separate views; 24 hand-picked Top Picks lead the way. Four domains: LLM dev tooling, jailbreaks & prompts, AI×crypto & no-KYC, agents & infra.
