A quicker way of creating arcs by two or three points in Adobe Illustrator. Quick to master and a real time-saver for such a common shape. The arc tool is a simple click-and-drag tool, it can even automatically join up with open paths and make drawing half circles much easier.
The Orient Transform Tool allows you to pick the object you want to orient and scale simultaneously. With a single keypress to also duplicate while you transform, it's great at replicating shapes along a path proportionally.
The Perpendicular Line tool comes with a keypress option to repeat the perpendiculars along the current segment or entire path uniformly or randomly.
The Tangent Line tool means you can snap lines perfectly every time between your shapes, no eyeballing here.
The Gradiator and Gradient Forge panels make making gradients much more intuitive. Drag-and-drop swatches into your gradients, or create gradients from your selected artwork colors.

SubScribe includes many color associated tools, including the AG Color Select which can pick up the exact color on the artboard. Unlike the native Eyedropper tool’s color sampling mode, AG Color Select honors live effects and can retain transparency (or flatten it). Additionally, the tool can save the selected color directly to a swatch, either non-global or global.
The Color Stamp function for Adobe Illustrator that colorizes any number of closed paths, taking each color from an average of the art that lies below them. Unlike the native Object Mosaic function, Color Stamp can use both vector and raster artwork as the reference, it will accurately collect and fill with the average color from the reference art, and you can use any closed paths/shapes to create your mosaic stamp.
