10 AI Tools that every content creator must be using from right now. 


Content creation is one of the best way to make money online. As the internet users increasing there is a huge demand of content. 

A day in a life of content creator is not so easy. 

Everyday they get different problems which they have to tackle with. But by using right tools and applications this problem can be decreased on some extend. So Here are 10 Smart Tools every content creator should be using.


1 Use Instagram Stories to create your YouTube thumbnails.


I've literally done this in the past, you can use the camera to take a photo of yourself over a plain background. 


And If you have an iPhone, then you can actually hold down on yourself


and it'll literally takes you off the background. But don't worry if you are not an iPhone user, because you can use a tool called bgremover. It will perfectly remove all your background so nicely. Then you can paste it into stories 

And you can also add text by simply hitting the text icon and then just adjust it accordingly. 


Obviously you want to turn your phone sideways and make sure that you're designing it for a YouTube thumbnail


But literally, once you're done designing the thumbnail, hit the three dots on the top of your phone and then save that image to your camera roll Go into your camera roll, rotate it correctly and then upload it to your YouTube video

But really just a great and free way to get a thumbnail made, and that is by using instagram Stories


2 Use your smartphone as a microphone?


Most people already have smartphones and you can use this as a microphone. 

Sometime your camera microphone doesn't capture clear voice due to the distance between you and your camera. But you can solve this issue without using any external microphone. Just keep you phone in your hand and place it In front of your mouth and yeah it's done. Now here is the bonus tip 


You can use a Free Tool called Adobe Enhancer it allows you to remove all background noise in just a single click. And most importantly it makes the voice so crispy and audible. So try it today. 


3 Control your video camera with smartphone.


if you own a camera and you're a solo creator download the free software that comes with your camera to control your camera wirelessly


Not only will it give you an image from where you're sitting and you can see yourself, but you can literally start and stop recording as well

It's just unbelievable. 


You know more potential with your camera and you don't even have to buy anything and it just makes using your camera a lot easier rather than getting up, starting and stopping.


Having this ability to start and stop recording alone is super convenient, especially if you're a solo creator



4 Use the Best video editing software called Capcut. 


This is an app that could be found on any smartphone device, can also download it if you have a MacBook.


And if you haven't heard or locked into this app, it honestly gives you everything you need to be able to edit videos, both horizontal and vertical. 

And there's so many Features within this app that as you learn it, you can really create some complex and engaging edits


But if you're just getting started, it's super great for beginners as well, and I can't say enough good things about Cap Cut. It's definitely worth giving a try.


5. Add stylish captions into your video with Blink app. 


What's cool about this app is it uses Al to add both emojis and gifts when it comes to captioning your videos, which is super great for beginners. You don't have to think about it, it literally will do everything for you. 


You can customize fonts, styles, transition and animation as well. If offers you wide range of fonts and colurs which you can add according to your need. Most importantly app interface is so easy that even if haven't used it earlier, you can also use it. 


This is also a free app they should definitely be using, especially if you're doing reels, tik toks, and YouTube shorts. 


6 This next free resource is actually our sponsor for todays video. It is free one hour YouTube Master class from Think media. 


Today everybody know that they can make money using YouTube, but not a lot of people know how you can actually go about doing that beyond Google AdSense


And if you're considering starting a YouTube channel this year.

Or maybe you want to use YouTube to make more money in your business or start a part time income or as a side hustle.Then I would encourage you to check out that free one hour YouTube master class, click on the link and it will navigate you to this amazing platform where you can actually learn the secret that nobody tasks about. 


7 A recorder where you can shoot your podcasts for YouTube or for other social media platform. 


For that you can use either Stream yard or Loom. 


Now if you are somebody who has PowerPoint presentations or you want to do reaction style content, you can create great quality content


what's cool about Stream Yard is you can actually do interviews and you can invite guests on it and then you can download it and make any final edits in something like Cap Cut and Adobe Premiere Pro. 


And we personally love using Stream Yard a lot here at Think Media, especially at our Think Media podcasts because we do a lot of virtual interviews. 


Now the remaining couple of tools are more interesting because as a creator it is going to help you a lot then you expect from it. 



8 Redirect your Instagram audience to YouTube just with a link.

 

I have seen that many creators make that mistake is sharing your YouTube link on Instagram Stories or on another platform


Means when someone clicks on a link in Instagram and it opens up a YouTube page within instagram, but then that person's not logged in and then that viewer is not giving you proper analytics.


And then you're not giving them any options to be able to subscribe or like a video because you have to be logged in. Right?


So here I bought a Free Tool called Link Twin which is simply a website where you paste your YouTube URL and it gives you a new URL which you would then use that to share on your social media via platforms and or in emails

and things like that.

And the crazy part is that now your videos will open directly into the YouTube app which is super powerful and everyone should do this


Any time I want to share a video on my stories I just throw it in there and then use that link to share to my followers. 


9 A tool that help you grow your YouTube channel. 


This next tool is a plug in that will help you grow your YouTube channel and that is Vid IQ which is something we've been using for years and we absolutely love having this plugin on our Google Chrome


And it not only gives you keyword, title and description recommendations when it comes to posting your videos, it also tracks video performance in real time like how your tags are being ranked in YouTube search or even your competitors insight. 


You can get access to daily video ideas which they use Al connected to your channel to produce. And really one of our most favorite features is the optimization tools to save you time. There's so many things that you need to de when it comes to tags, titles, descriptions. 



10 A tool which can generate highly realistic human voice [ Eleven labs ] 


Just like everybody doesn't feel comfortable while showing face on camera similarly there is a lot of creators all across the world who find it difficult to add their voice to any video or speak fluently. So they sometime loose the opportunity of creating content that they are looking for. But don't worry in this era of AI there is a perfect solution for this. Use Eleven labs, just put it down with text script ( any language) and select the favourable character and then press on generate icon. It will take less then 2 minutes ( depending upon the script length) and you will get your voice which you can use anywhere.
