Quick orientation: the Museumkaart (annual, residents and frequent museum visitors) and the I amsterdam City Card (multi-day tourist pass including transport) are the two main pass options. For most visitors on a short trip, the maths usually favours single tickets unless you plan to visit four or more museums. The Anne Frank House is a separate question entirely - it requires timed entry and sells out weeks in advance.
