The AI landscape is evolving fast. Here are the tools that are actually worth your time and money as a creator.
Writing and copywriting
Claude
Claude is my go-to for long-form writing, strategy, and coding. The reasoning capabilities are unmatched, and it handles nuance better than any other model.
ChatGPT
Still the most versatile general-purpose AI assistant. Great for brainstorming, quick drafts, and image generation with DALL-E.
Video creation
Runway
Runway continues to push the boundaries of AI video generation. Their Gen-3 model produces incredible results for short clips and b-roll.
Descript
The best tool for podcast and video editing. AI-powered transcription, filler word removal, and eye contact correction make editing effortless.
Design and visuals
Midjourney
Still the gold standard for AI image generation. The quality and consistency of v6 outputs are remarkable.
Canva
Canva's AI features have made it even more powerful for creators who need quick, professional designs without Photoshop skills.
Automation
Make (Integromat)
Connect your tools and automate repetitive workflows. Essential for any creator running a business.
