 AI Website Building Tools
These AI tools assist in building websites or web content with minimal coding.

Framer (AI Website Designer & Builder)

Description: Framer is a web design tool that now offers an AI website builder. By inputting a description
(or using AI to generate text/images), Framer can create a multi-page, responsive website in second . It
combines design and deployment – users can further tweak the design in Framer’s editor and publish with
built-in hosting.

• Pros: Easy and intuitive visual editor – users nd it more straightforward than traditional site builders
like WordPress or Wi . Combines design and building in one (similar to Figma’s exibility but outputs a
live site). Supports complex interactions, animations, and produces fast, SEO-optimised sites out of the
bo . Great integration of AI copywriter for text content in your brand voic .

• Cons: Not suitable for web applications or sites needing complex backend logic (it’s primarily for static
or front-end oriented sites . Uses a subscription model for custom domains and advanced feature .
Also, while easier than code, the design interface is similar to design tools (Photoshop/Figma), so
absolute beginners might face a learning curve understanding design concepts.

• Pricing: Free plan (“Free Forever”) allows one Framer subdomain site with up to 1,000 monthly visitors
(great for simple personal sites . Paid plans are per site: Mini – ~$5/month (annual) for custom domain,
limited pages; Basic – ~$15/month for up to 150 pages and more CMS item
; Pro – ~$25/month for larger sites (300 pages, more traf c . All paid tiers remove Framer branding and
increase visitor limits. (Framer’s design tool usage itself is free; pricing applies when hosting/publishing
sites).

• Use Cases: Designers and marketers building landing pages, portfolios, marketing sites quickly.
Small businesses that need a sleek website without hiring developers. Also useful for prototyping
website ideas – you can have a working site from an AI prompt, then re ne design for production.

• Of cial Site: framer.com (AI Site Builder is accessible on the website

10Web AI Builder (WordPress Website Generator)

 any website from a URL or generate a new site based on user prompts, then let you edit with a familiar
WP/Elementor interfac . It handles the full stack: AI content generation, design, and managed hosting.

• Pros: Seamless WordPress integration – sites are built on WordPress with Elementor, so you have a
standard CMS after AI generates the initial design. Generally easier and faster than building a WP site
from scratch; AI generates text and images that are surprisingly relevan le. Great for quickly cloning a
site’s design: the AI Recreation Assistant can import an existing site’s layout and style to jumpstart
developmen .

• Cons: The AI generation can produce technical errors or imperfect layouts, so you might need to ne-
tune (the tool is improving over time). Customisation options are somewhat limited to what Elementor
offers – for highly bespoke designs or features, you might hit constraints. It also uses a monthly
subscription model (includes hosting), which may not suit those who prefer one-time payments for a
sit .

• Pricing: Offers a 7-day free trial (full access .

After that, subscription plans bundle hosting + builder: AI Starter at ~$20/month (or ~$10/mo annual)
for 1 site with basic resource ; AI Premium ~$30/mo (or ~$15/mo annual) for more robust site
; higher plans like AI Ultimate for $45/mo (more traf c
, and agency plans for multiple sites (e.g., 10Web Personal $14/mo for 1 site, Premium $35 for 3 sites,
etc). All plans include the AI builder, hosting, and site optimisations.

• Use Cases: Perfect for quickly building a WordPress website for a small business, blog, or eCommerce
(10Web has eCommerce plans for online stores as wel ). Agencies can use it to spin up client sites fast,
then re ne content. Also useful to migrate an existing site into a modern WP design using AI.

ChatGPT (for Website Code Generation)

Description: ChatGPT by OpenAI – a powerful language model – isn’t a dedicated site builder, but it was
highlighted for its ability to assist in website creation by generating code and content. Through natural
language prompts, ChatGPT (especially with GPT-4 and the new Vision feature) can produce HTML/CSS/
JS and even interpret sketches of a layout to help build a basic websit

• Pros: Excellent brainstorming partner – can suggest website ideas, features, and write boilerplate
code or text content. With GPT-4’s code capability, it can often convert written instructions into working
website code (for example, generate a simple HTML/CSS page from a prompt . The Vision feature (if
available) can interpret images or rough drawings of a site and output corresponding code structur .
It’s also readily available (free tier) and supports many frameworks via code plugins.

• Cons: Not a specialised tool for design – ChatGPT won’t give you a polished visual layout out-of-the-
box; you’ll likely need to style the generated code. It may produce code that needs debugging or

 re ning, especially for complex layouts or interactive features. Also, it does not deploy a site (it just
gives code), so you must have the ability to use the code it provides. In short, it’s “helpful but not a one-
click site builder.”

• Pricing: Free to use for anyone on the web (uses the GPT-3.5 model for free). For the most advanced
model and features (like GPT-4, GPT o1, o3 with vision, priority access), ChatGPT Plus costs $20 per
month. The Plus subscription includes GPT-4, faster responses, and plugin usage, which signi cantly
boost its coding assistance abilities. (No additional cost per use, except if using OpenAI API which is
usage-based.)

• Use Cases: Useful for developers or enthusiasts to generate snippets of code, x HTML/CSS issues, or
get quick examples of how to implement something on a webpage. For non-coders, it can create a
starting point for a simple site (“a single-page personal website”) which they can then hand off to a
developer or re ne themselves. Also great for generating content text for sites (product descriptions,
blog sections, etc.).

 AI Image Generation Tools
These tools create images from text prompts (text-to-image). They differ in models, quality, and usage
policies.

DALL-E 3 (OpenAI Image Generator)

Description: DALL·E 3 is OpenAI’s latest text-to-image model, integrated into ChatGPT. It excels at
understanding nuanced prompts by leveraging GPT-4 to re ne prompt detail . Users can converse with
ChatGPT to generate and iteratively re ne images. DALL-E 3 creates a wide variety of art styles and
illustrations, though its default style leans slightly more artistic/animated than photorealistic.

• Pros: Extremely easy to use – simply describe what you want in plain English (especially via ChatGPT’s
interface) and it will produce image . Great at understanding complex scene descriptions and helpful in
guiding users to phrase prompts (the ChatGPT integration can suggest improvements). DALL-E 3’s
integration in ChatGPT Plus means you can have a conversational prompting experience, iterating on
images with feedback. Also, usage rights are user-friendly – images you create are yours to use freely
(including commercially .

• Cons: Struggles to generate realistic human faces of actual people – it avoids producing faces of real
individuals due to ethical guardrails. Has strict content censorship: it refuses prompts about famous
people, violence, guns, political gures, etc., which can limit certain creative scenario . Some users nd
its outputs a bit stereotypical or lacking in imaginative creativity for very abstract prompt – it might
default to common interpretations. Also, outside of ChatGPT, there’s no standalone DALL-E 3 interface
except through Bing.

• Pricing: Accessible for free on Bing (Microsoft’s Bing Image Creator uses DALL-E 3 for no charge .
Within ChatGPT, DALL-E 3 is included in the $20/month ChatGPT Plus subscription at no extra cos .
There is no separate pricing for DALL-E 3 itself (OpenAI’s older DALL-E 2 had pay-per-image credits,
but DALL-E 3 is mainly through the ChatGPT Plus or Bing channels). Essentially, Plus users get a
generous amount of image generation included.

• Use Cases: Ideal for quickly generating illustrations, concept art, product mockups, or storybook-
like images from simple prompts. Great for marketing material ideation, blog post illustrations, or
visual brainstorms. Non-artists can get drawings for their ideas (e.g. a book cover concept). The strong
prompt understanding makes it suitable for complex scenes or when you need the AI to ll in details
from a broad concept.

• Of cial Link: Via ChatGPT Plus (openai.com or Bing Image Creator (free access via Microsoft

 Leonardo AI

Description: Leonardo.ai is a versatile image generation platform originally geared towards creating
game assets, now expanded to general image art generatio . It offers multiple models/ netunes and a
feature-rich web app for generating and editing AI images. Users get ne control over styles, model
selection (e.g. Leonardo’s own models, Stable Diffusion variants), and even basic animation features.

• Pros: Many more options and model choices than basic generator – you can pick different AI models
depending on desired style (fantasy art, illustrations, etc.), adjust dimensions, and use advanced
settings. It adheres to prompts well, often yielding clear, detailed images as intende
. It’s considered on par with Adobe Fire y in quality and often better at following prompts than
Midjourney in CNET’s test . Another plus: low censorship – Leonardo has minimal content restrictions
(within reason), allowing more freedom in what you can create.

• Cons: The abundance of options can be overwhelming for beginners. The interface, while powerful,
has many toggles and settings – new users may nd it complicated and there’s a learning curve to
mastering it. Also, certain advanced features (like high-res upscaling or editing) are not available on the
free pla . Finally, while prompt adherence is good, achieving ultra-photorealism may require choosing
speci c models or ne-tuning prompts; out of the box, some outputs might still have an illustrative
quality compared to Midjourney’s realism.

• Pricing: Comprehensive free plan – when you sign up, you automatically get a free tier with 150
tokens every 24 hours, which is enough for dozens of images daily. This free usage renews
continuously, making Leonardo one of the most generous free offerings. Paid plans (as of 2025) start at
$10/month for a Standard plan (if billed monthly, $8 if yearly , which gives 700 monthly credits plus 30
daily credits re ll (so ample generations) and perks like no watermark and priority processing. Higher
tiers (Pro, etc.) cost more and offer even more credits or unlimited generation . For API usage or
enterprise, pricing varies, but for most individuals the free or $10 plan is suf cien .

• Use Cases: Great for artists, game designers, or creative enthusiasts who want ne control. It’s used to
create game sprites, concept art, characters, environments, as well as general digital art. Because of
prompt delity, it’s useful when you have a very speci c image in mind. Also, educators or content
creators who need a steady stream of images (Leonardo’s free credits refresh means you can generate
daily content). Its combination of image and even basic video (animation) tools makes it a multi-
purpose creative suite.

• Of cial Site: leonardo.ai (Free account available; web-based studio .

 Midjourney

Description: Midjourney is one of the leading AI image generators known for its high-quality,
imaginative outputs. It operates via Discord (bot commands) and produces images in various styles,
often with stunning detail and artistry. Midjourney is particularly praised for photorealistic images and
creative art, making it a benchmark in AI art.

• Pros: Excellent at realistic photography as well as abstract ar . Many users nd Midjourney v5/v6
outputs to be among the most lifelike (for portraits, landscapes) and artistically rich. It offers great
options for modifying images: you can upscale, create variations, and use new features like “Zoom Out”
and “Pan” to extend images, and even achieve character consistency across images. It’s continuously
evolving – new features have reduced issues (e.g., it’s getting better at consistent hands/faces). The
community and support (via Discord) provide lots of inspiration and prompt ideas.

• Cons: Many features are tied to the Discord interface, which can be confusing for beginner . Using
Midjourney means learning Discord bot commands and managing a feed of images, which some may
nd unintuitive. There is no free tier (after trial) – originally Midjourney had a free trial, but it’s often off
or limited, so effectively it’s paid-only for regular use. Also, while censorship is moderate (it allows more
than DALL-E but still lters some content), it does have some banned prompts and will not produce
certain NSFW or harmful imager . Finally, because Midjourney’s style is so high-quality, people can
often recognise “a Midjourney look,” and achieving very speci c styles may require prompt
engineering.

• Pricing: No ongoing free plan. Midjourney requires a subscription: Basic plan at $10/month (200
image generations per month , Standard at $30/month (approximately 15 hours of fast generation,
which usually means ~900 images, plus unlimited in relaxed mode . There is also a Pro plan $60/mo
(more fast hours, stealth mode for private generations) and a Mega plan $120/mo for enterprise-level
us . Annual billing gives ~20% discount (e.g., Basic $96/year). All plans are via the Midjourney website/
Discord sign-up.

• Use Cases: Favoured by designers, artists, and creators for concept art, product design mockups,
album covers, fantasy illustrations, portraits, landscapes – whenever top-tier visual quality is
needed. Midjourney is often used in advertising and creative industries to prototype visuals. It’s also
popular in social media and content creation for unique art. If you need an AI image that could pass as
professionally illustrated or photographed, Midjourney is a go-to.

• Of cial Site: midjourney.com (invites to Discord for usage; subscription required).

 Adobe Fire y

Description: Adobe Fire y is Adobe’s generative AI engine integrated into Creative Cloud apps
(Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. . It can generate images from text, but its standout feature is integration with
Adobe’s tools – e.g., Generative Fill in Photoshop allows users to extend or modify images using AI.
Fire y is tailored for design work ows, offering art styles that blend well into creative projects.

• Pros: Works within Adobe apps like Photoshop, making it convenient for designers to use AI directly
in their existing work o . It has great options for modifying images – generative ll, object removal,
and style adjustments are all at your ngertips when editin le. Fire y also supports text effects and
vector recolouring in Illustrator. For those already in the Adobe ecosystem, it’s seamless. It produces
consistent results and is easy to use with straightforward prompts, especially for concept art or design
elements. And importantly, content generated in Fire y (non-beta features) is safe for commercial use
with Adobe’s IP indemnity, which is attractive to enterprise user .

• Cons: Limited free usage – free users get only a small number of generative credits (around 25 per
month . After that, you need a subscription or it watermarks the images. In terms of output, while good,
many nd Fire y’s image generation not as advanced as Midjourney or Leonardo for photorealis . As
noted, it can be “inferior in generation compared to Midjourney, Leonardo, etc.”, meaning if ultimate
quality or variety is needed, other tools may outperform it. Fire y is also tightly integrated with Adobe’s
UI – it’s not a standalone web service beyond beta testing, so you typically use it inside an Adobe app
(Photoshop’s web beta aside).

• Pricing: Included with Adobe Creative Cloud plans. Users with a paid Adobe plan get a certain
amount of generative credits each month (e.g., Photoshop subscribers might get some credits for
Fire y features . Adobe also offers a Fire y web with a credit system: Free tier provides ~25 credits/
month (with watermark . The Fire y Premium add-on was introduced at ~$4.99/month for 100 credits
(no watermark . Additionally, Creative Cloud enterprise plans include larger credit allotment . In
summary, Fire y is generally accessed by having an Adobe subscription – if you already pay for Adobe,
you likely have access; otherwise, a small monthly fee is needed for meaningful use.

• Use Cases: Perfect for graphic designers and marketers working in Photoshop/Illustrator: e.g., quickly
expanding an image background, removing unwanted objects, generating variations of an image in a
layout. Also useful for creating custom stock images, marketing graphics, or concept art that you will
further re ne in Adobe apps. If you “live” in Adobe tools, Fire y speeds up many tasks (like ideation and
editing) without leaving your workspace.

• Of cial Site: Adobe Fire y (or use directly in Photoshop CC .

 DreamStudio (Stable Diffusion by Stability AI)

Description: DreamStudio is the of cial web app for Stable Diffusion, the popular open-source image
generation model by Stability AI. It provides an easy interface for generating images with Stable Diffusion
and its latest versions (like SDXL). DreamStudio offers sliders for advanced parameters (steps, CFG, etc.)
and supports using negative prompts to re ne result . Essentially, it’s the gateway to Stable Diffusion for
non-coders.

• Pros: Better customisation than some closed models – users can tweak many generation settings
(resolution, number of inference steps, guidance scale) to get the desired outpu s. It also supports
negative prompts, which let you specify what you don’t want in the image (a powerful way to
avoid certain elements . DreamStudio runs on Stability’s cloud, so no local setup needed, but you
can also take the same model and run it locally later if you want. New users get free credits (so you
can try it out without payment . Because it’s Stable Diffusion, there’s a huge community making
custom models and ne-tunes – DreamStudio often gives access to the latest of cial model
releases.

• Cons: Photorealism can be challenging for beginners – out of the box, if you don’t craft the
prompt well, Stable Diffusion might give results that look more “AI-ish.” The slide noted it’s “bad at
generating photos if you are a beginner”, meaning it has a learning curve to get truly photo-
quality results (unlike Midjourney which often does it automatically). There’s a massive learning
curve if you go beyond the app – i.e. running SD locally or training models requires technical skil .
Also, the Stability team’s default models have high censorship on certain content (though you
could use community models to circumvent, the of cial platform will lter NSFW). In DreamStudio,
you pay per generation, so heavy usage can consume credits quickly.

• Pricing: DreamStudio operates on a credit system. New users get some free credits (commonly
reported as 25 free generations or 100 free credits . After that, you buy credits – the standard rate
is about $10 for 1000 credits, which yields roughly 500 images (since a default image might cost
2 credits for a lower resolution, more for higher res). For example, one source notes 25 free
credits, then $10 for 1000 credits (enough for ~5,000 images if using the base model at low res .
In practice, using SDXL at decent resolution might cost ~2 credits per image, so ~$0.02 per
image, which is quite cost-effective. No monthly subscription needed – it’s pay-as-you-go.
(Alternatively, one can run Stable Diffusion locally for free, but with hardware costs.)

• Use Cases: Good for AI enthusiasts or professionals who want full control. You can create any
kind of art: from concept art, anime, portraits, product designs, landscapes – Stable Diffusion is
very exible especially if you nd or train a model tuned to your domain. It’s also used for AI
experimentation: testing prompts, creating variations, or outputting a base image that you then
edit manually. DreamStudio speci cally is great for those who want to use Stable Diffusion without

 AI Video Generation Tools
These tools deal with AI-generated video from text or images, and AI-powered video effects. Text-to-
video is an emerging eld – these tools create short video clips (often a few seconds) based on prompts.

Sora AI (OpenAI’s Text-to-Video Model)

Description: Sora is OpenAI’s experimental text-to-video model, designed to generate short videos (~5–
20 seconds) from text description . It can also take image or video inputs to guide the output. Sora is not
widely publicly available (in 2025 it’s in limited beta for researchers and creators , but it represents cutting-
edge quality in AI video. In demos, Sora can handle multiple characters and scene changes in a single clip
better than many competitors.

• Pros: Very high quality output – among text-to-video tools, Sora’s results are some of the most
coherent and detaile . It handles complex scenes with multiple subjects or actions better than
other . Users can specify camera movements in the prompt (e.g. “aerial pan around…”) to
in uence how the scene is shot. It’s also more consistent with physics and object permanence
than earlier models (though still an area for improvement). Essentially, Sora produces videos that
can be surprisingly realistic or on-target for the prompt when it works.

• Cons: In usage, some issues include random scene cuts in the generated video (the video might
suddenly change scene halfway). It still has some content moderation (less strict than DALL-E’s,
but more than completely open platforms – certain prompts might be disallowed or result in
bland outputs. Additionally, like many generative video models, physics (e.g. realistic motion for
running water, or natural human movement) isn’t perfect.

• Pricing: For signi cant use, ~$200/month, implying a high cost for whatever private beta or API
exists. If/when Sora launches publicly, it might come via an OpenAI service (possibly usage-based
pricing similar to their image or text models). For now, we can consider that access is limited to
invitees, and presumably it requires considerable compute credits.

• Use Cases: Future-looking: generating short video clips or cinematics from scratch for creative
projects. For instance, storyboarding scenes for lms/games, creating ads or visual effects
prototypes. In current form, likely used by researchers and studios to explore AI-driven video
content. If it becomes widely available, many use cases include quickly visualising an idea in
motion (versus a still image), generating background video loops for designs, or video content for
social media without lming.

 Hailuo AI

Description: Hailuo (or “Hailuo AI”) is a text-to-video model/platform that takes a text prompt and
generates a short video (often ~6 seconds . It provides 720p clips at 25 FPS focusing on turning simple
prompts into quick video . It’s one of the early consumer-facing AI video generators. Hailuo is notable for
a generous free tier, making it a popular choice for users to experiment with AI video.

• Pros: Lots of free credits – Hailuo gives new users 1000 credits upfront and 100 credits daily
for free. This means you can generate many videos without paying, which is great for learning and
casual use. It follows prompt instructions better than many competitors, so the video content
tends to match the described scene fairly wel . It’s also one of the fastest generators – around 30
seconds to generate a 6-second video cli , which is quick in this eld. So iteration is relatively
speedy.

• Cons: The video quality is not top-tier – outputs “lack polish” and often have artifacts or jitte .
While it’s improving, you can usually tell it’s AI-generated and not a real video. The videos are very
short (5 seconds for many prompts, up to 6s , and attempts at longer sequences tend to break.
Also, Hailuo’s physics and motion can be off (common issues: weird object distortions). It may
randomly cut scenes or introduce odd transitions as well. Essentially, it’s great for a quick demo,
but not production-ready for high quality needs.

• Pricing: Free plan available, which includes the daily free credits (100/day . This is enough for a
few short videos per day (Hailuo stated ~30 credits per video generation, so ~3 videos a day free .
They also have paid plans – though speci cs aren’t in the keynote, the service likely offers
subscriptions or top-ups for more credits. According to third-party info, Hailuo has both free and
paid option . We can infer that after using free credits, users can purchase additional credits or
subscribe for higher limits (pricing was not explicitly given, but expect tiers for enthusiasts vs.
professionals). In summary, one can do a lot for free, and scale up with paid credits if needed.

• Use Cases: Great for those who want to experiment with AI video for fun – making short clips
from imaginative prompts (like “an astronaut dancing on the moon” as a 6s video). Also useful for
prototyping video ideas or adding a quick video element to a presentation. Since quality isn’t
production-grade, it’s more for creative experimentation, education, or social media snippets.
Its ease of use and free credits also make it suitable for students or hobbyists to dip their toes into
AI video generation.

 Runway ML (Gen-2)

Description: Runway ML is a platform providing various AI tools for creatives. Its Gen-2 model is a text-
to-video system that can create short new videos from a text prompt, or modify existing images/video .
Runway was one of the rst to launch text-to-video (Gen-1 and Gen-2). Besides generation, Runway ML
offers video editing effects, background removal, and more in a web app.

• Pros: Runway’s Gen-2 is one of the rst available text-to-video AIs to the publi . The platform is
user-friendly: you can input text, get a short video, and also do video-to-video (apply a style or
transform to an uploaded video). It’s a pioneer, so it has a head start in features and has improved
with user feedback. Runway also integrates into work ows with its web editor – you can chain AI
effects (e.g., generate a video, then use AI to remove background, etc.). Essentially, it’s a versatile
toolkit.

• Cons: Despite being rst-mover, the visual quality is not up to the mark compared to newer
models. Videos often look low delity or abstract. The keynote bluntly noted “visual quality is
simply not up to the mark . Also, Runway’s generous early free tier changed – now there’s a credit
system. The cost can be high for many generations: Gen-2 was reported at ~$0.05 per 4-second
render via their pricin . The subscription tiers (Standard $12/mo, Pro $28/mo, etc.) include some
credits, but for extensive use it can get pricey given the quality trade-of . Another issue: after using
included credits, further generations require buying more, which frustrated some users who
expected “unlimited”. So cost vs. output quality is a concern. Lastly, for now clips are short (a few
seconds), similar to others.

• Pricing: Free plan: Runway offers a Basic free tier with 125 credits one-time (roughly 25 seconds
of video generation , but with watermarks and limited resolution. To do more, the Standard plan
is $12/user/month (billed annually) which gives 625 credits/month (~125 seconds of Gen-2
video . The Pro plan is $28/month (annual) for 2250 credits (~450 seconds . On these plans, you
can also purchase extra credits or use “slow mode” generation without credits in some cases.
Essentially, expect around $10-$30/month for moderate use. (There was also an unlimited $100/
mo plan with conditions, but it might be throttled as per community discussions.)

• Use Cases: As an early tool, Runway Gen-2 is useful for artistic or abstract video snippets – for
example, generating an arty background video for a design, or testing out generative concepts.
It’s also popular among lmmakers for pre-visualization: you can storyboard ideas by
generating rough motion scenes. Additionally, its integrated editor means you can composite the
AI video with other media easily, so video editors might use it to generate elements or ll gaps. If
absolute realism isn’t required, it can be a creative tool for unique, dream-like visuals.

 Kling (Kuaishou’s Video Generator)

Description: Kling is a text-to-video model developed by Kuaishou (a major Chinese social media
company). It generates short videos from prompts and also offers an image-to-video capabilit . Kling is
known for striving for higher video quality and has unique features for more precise control (like special
effect brushes and lip-sync). It’s accessible via a web interface.

• Pros: High prompt accuracy – Kling’s outputs align closely with the text description, thanks to
advanced prompt parsin . It also offers more user controls than most: features like a “motion
brush” to guide movement, or lip-sync to align generated characters with desired audio/dialogue.
This level of control is unique and useful for creators who want to ne-tune the result. Kling’s
quality is considered nearly on par with top models like Sora, but at a lower cost, making it
attractive (especially in the Chinese market . Another pro: it’s backed by a big company
(Kuaishou), indicating active development and integration potential with social media.

• Cons: Long wait times – the keynote example noted ~8 minutes to generate the example video,
which is signi cantly slower than some others (likely due to high demand or complex processing).
Also, some users observed a “Chinese look” in outputs for non-Chinese context – possibly a bias
in training data causing characters or styles to have an East Asian appearance even if prompt is
different. This could require prompt adjustments to avoid. Since it’s relatively new to international
users, documentation and community help might be limited in English. Lastly, like all these tools,
it’s not perfect in rendering and can have artifacts.

• Pricing: Free users get ~66 credits per day to generate videos. This is suf cient for one short clip
of ~5–10 seconds length per day, since a 5s video might cost ~50 credits (depending on
resolution/quality). Standard plan (~$10/mo) provides ~660 credits/month (about 10x the free
volume) and removes watermarks and length limits. The Pro plan ($37/mo) gives 3,000 credits
and priority processing, while Premier ($92/mo) yields 8,000 credits for heavy user

• Use Cases: Content creators who want to generate short videos or special effects for social
media. Kling’s lip-sync and motion control could be used to create AI-driven characters or
avatars that speak lines – useful for virtual in uencers or entertainment. Also, advertisers could
try it for quick video ad ideas. Its precise control features make it suitable for those willing to invest
time to direct the AI output for more speci c results (almost like directing a tiny AI lm).

 Pika Labs (Pika AI)

Description: Pika Labs (often just “Pika”) is an AI tool focused on video-to-video transformations and
special effects. Rather than generating a video wholly from text, Pika lets you upload an existing video or
image and apply “Pikaffects” like in ate, melt, explode, or turn things into different materials (e.g., make
an object look like cake). It also has text-to-video generation and “Pikadditions” to insert objects into
video . It’s a popular, fun tool for creating viral short videos with eye-catching transformations.

• Pros: One of the easiest AI VFX tools to use – the interface is simple: choose an effect, upload
media, enter prompt, and it outputs a short video with that effec . It offers very unique and
innovative features not found elsewhere, like the ability to “cake-ify” someone (make them look
like cake) or “puff” an object like a balloo . It’s essentially bringing high-end video effects to
casual users via AI. Pika’s effects often look creative and can be quite entertaining, fueling a trend
of viral videos. Also, Pika has a free tier, and its Basic plan is free with some credits, lowering the
barrier to try i .

• Cons: Inconsistent video quality – results can vary, sometimes the effect looks convincing, other
times glitchy. It’s not at a Hollywood special effects level yet (cannot replace professional VFX for
long or high-res videos . Outputs are currently low resolution (720p in many cases) and limited to
just a few seconds. Often there are long wait times due to popularity and processing loa .
Another limitation: very short duration – many functionalities only let you modify about 5
seconds of video. So you can’t apply these effects to a full minute video in one go. If you need
longer, you’d have to stitch multiple segments.

• Pricing: Free Basic plan: Pika now offers 80 video credits per month for free users, which allows
for a few short video generations depending on the model and features used (e.g., Turbo model
costs 5 credits per video, while the 2.1 model with Pikascenes can use up to 60 credits). Paid plans
include Standard at $8/month (billed annually) with 700 monthly credits, Pro at $28/month
(2,300 monthly credits), and Fancy at $76/month (6,000 monthly credits). All paid plans remove
watermarks, unlock HD downloads, and include commercial use rights. Video credit consumption
varies based on effects and duration, so actual usage per clip may differ. For most casual users,
the Free or Standard plan provides enough to explore and create a handful of videos each month.

• Use Cases: Social media content creation – making those trendy short videos with wild
transformations (like personal TikTok or Instagram clips that stand out). Marketers might use it for
attention-grabbing visuals in campaigns. It’s also useful for creative storytelling, e.g., taking a still
photo and turning it into a dynamic video with an effect (imagine a product photo melting into
liquid, etc.). Essentially, Pika shines in enhancing or remixing existing media into something fun
or surreal. It’s less about accurate rendering and more about artistic, playful effects.

 AI Audio Generation Tools
AI isn’t just text and images – these tools generate audio, including music and speech.

Suno AI (Music Generation)

Category: AI Music Generation (Text-to-Song)

Description: Suno AI is an AI platform for generating songs with vocals from text prompts. It can
produce music in various genres complete with instrumental and singing voices. Suno’s model (often
accessed via the Suno Studio web app) can create songs up to about 4 minutes long based on the
description of mood, genre, and lyrics. It’s one of the leading tools for AI-generated music with vocals.

• Pros: Can produce surprisingly realistic-sounding songs (with voices) up to several minute . It’s
extremely easy to use – just enter a description of a song (and optionally specify an artist style or
provide lyrics) and it generates a sample. Suno provides generous free usage for
experimentation: 50 credits per day free, which is about 10 songs dail . The AI vocals, while not a
speci c famous singer, sound coherent as singing, which is impressive. Good for exploring
different genres; it tends to capture the vibe (e.g., “a Bollywood love song” prompt yields
something that indeed sounds like a Bollywood track

• Cons: The generated vocals have limited variety – currently all songs have a similar sounding
singer voice, which users describe as an “autotuned” effect across output . So while the tune
and lyrics change, you may notice a same-voice syndrome. Also, free users cannot use songs
commercially (no commercial license on free tier . You’d need a paid plan to legally publish or
monetise the music. The AI might produce somewhat generic lyrics or repetitive phrases unless
you guide it with speci c lyrics. Quality-wise, it’s good for basic use, but it won’t match a
professional studio recording (think of it as a high-quality demo).

• Pricing: Free tier: ~50 credits/day, which allows about 10 songs per day for free. Paid plans: Pro
plan $10/month for 2,500 credits/month (~500 songs) and commercial usage right . There is
also a Premier $30/mo (or $24/mo annual) for 10,000 credits (~2,000 songs . These plans allow
using the generated music on platforms like Spotify, YouTube, etc., without copyright issue . In
essence, $10/mo gets most enthusiasts plenty of music generation capacity.

• Use Cases: Musicians and creators can use Suno to generate melodies and song ideas quickly,
potentially overcoming writer’s block by seeing what the AI comes up with. Content creators can
make background music or theme songs for videos/podcasts without needing a composer
(ensuring to get a pro plan if commercial). It’s also fun for personal entertainment – for example,
you can generate a custom birthday song or a parody by prompting a certain style. Educators
might use it to demonstrate music genres or create examples. Essentially, it democratizes making
a simple song for those who aren’t musically trained.

Eleven Labs (Voice Generation & Cloning)

Category: AI Text-to-Speech (Voice Synthesis)

Description: Eleven Labs is a state-of-the-art AI voice generator known for its ultra-realistic text-to-
speech. It can convert written text into speech that sounds like a human, with options to clone voices or
create custom synthetic voices. It supports multiple languages and has become a go-to for high-quality AI
narration or voiceover.

• Pros: Widely regarded as the #1 tool in the market for text-to-speech realis s. The voices it
generates (including the default ones) are extremely lifelike, capturing nuances like tone, pacing,
and even breathing or laughter in some cases. It’s very useful for short, high-quality voiceovers or
narration – e.g., you can have a script read in a compelling voice that sounds nearly like a real
perso . Eleven Labs also allows voice cloning: with a sample of a real person’s voice (with
permission), you can create a custom AI voice that speaks any text, which is how the keynote
presenter cloned his own voice in English and Hindi. Multilingual support means you can
generate speech in different languages or accents with the same voice.

• Cons: Generating and re ning voices can be time-consuming, especially if you need to get the
intonation just righ . While it’s great for short clips, longer narration might require manual
correction (like adjusting where to pause or emphasise). It’s also relatively expensive for heavy
use: the standard plan gives 100k characters for $22, which is roughly ~1.5 hours of spoken audio
le-. For content creators wanting to voice many hours of content, costs add up unless you invest
in higher tiers or the new Pro plan. Additionally, monetising cloned voices is tricky – using a
cloned celebrity voice for content would violate terms; even cloning your own and using it
extensively might face platform moderation issues (and as the slide notes, it may be impractical to
monetise AI voices on, say, YouTube due to policies or detection . Essentially, it’s a fantastic tool
but not a magic bullet for unlimited free narration.

• Pricing: Free plan: allows 10,000 characters per month (~5-6 minutes of audio) for testin .
Starter plan: $5/month for 30,000 characters (~15-20 min . The popular Creator plan: $22/
month for 100,000 characters (~1.5 hrs . Higher plans: Pro $99/mo for 500k chars, Scale $330/
mo for 2M char . (Prices might have slight variations by region, but $20 for 100k chars is
con rme ) Additional usage beyond included chars is billed per 1k chars (around $0.30 per 1k
on Creator plan . Voice cloning is available from Starter upward (Starter includes instant cloning,
Creator adds higher-quality cloning . Tip: 100k characters is roughly a 1-hour podcast; so $22 for
an hour of audio is the ballpark.

podcasts (with caution to not violate policies). Also great for prototyping voiceovers in video
production before hiring voice actors – you can generate a temp track. Game developers or app
developers might use it for NPC dialogue or accessibility features (reading text aloud). Individuals
can have documents or articles read to them in a natural voice. And of course, it’s popular for fun
voice cloning experiments (dubbing yourself in another language or making a favourite character

 AI Coding Assistant
Cursor AI (AI Code Editor)

Description: Cursor is an AI-powered code editor (an entire IDE) that helps developers write and refactor
code using natural language. It’s like having GitHub Copilot or ChatGPT built directly into a coding
environment, with a chat interface that has full context of your project. Cursor supports multiple languages
and allows you to ask it to generate functions, explain code, x errors, etc., all within an editor that runs on
your machine.

• Pros: Deep integration with code – Cursor can take into account your entire codebase when
making suggestions or changes, not just a single l . This means it can do things like update all
relevant les for a change, or nd bugs that span les (a big advantage over simpler code
assistants). It’s very fast and intelligent in autocompleting code or writing new code from scratch
based on a comment/instruction. Many users report dramatically increased productivity, as it can
scaffold large parts of an application quickly and then you just tweak i . It supports instructing it in
plain English, like “refactor this function for ef ciency” and it will do so. The UI is similar to VS
Code, so familiar to developers.

• Cons: As with any AI code tool, it sometimes produces incorrect or suboptimal code – you can’t
blindly trust every output (especially for critical logic). It might refuse some requests (it has some
safeguards, e.g. it won’t just write an entire app if it thinks it’s too large a request). For very large
projects, there might be performance considerations when it’s analysing everything. Also, it’s a
standalone editor – while it’s good, some developers have their own highly customised
environment and may not switch fully to Cursor. It launched in 2024, so it’s relatively new; minor
bugs or missing features in the editor part might exist as it’s not as mature as, say, VS Code in
terms of extensions or debugging features (though it is evolving fast). There’s also a privacy
consideration: it uses external AI models (like OpenAI’s) so code is sent to their servers (important
for proprietary code – though they do offer self-hosting for enterprise).

• Pricing: As of March 2025, Cursor offers a Hobby plan that is free for personal use, providing
users with 2,000 completions and 50 slow premium requests per month. For advanced features,
the Pro plan is available at $20 per month, offering unlimited completions, 500 fast premium
requests per month, and unlimited slow premium requests. The Business plan, priced at $40 per
user per month, includes all Pro features plus enforced privacy mode organization-wide,
centralized team billing, an admin dashboard with usage statistics, and SAML/OIDC SSO. These
plans aim to keep Cursor accessible to individual developers, while also catering to enterprise
needs through self-hosting options and increased usage limits

• Use Cases: Software developers of all stripes – from students learning to code (Cursor can
explain code and suggest xes, making it a great tutor) to experienced engineers (who can use it

 to boilerplate code, write tests, or perform large refactoring swiftly). It’s especially useful when
working in a new language or framework – the AI can ll in the gaps of your knowledge. Also great
for generating documentation or comments for code. Essentially, if you code, an AI pair-
programmer like Cursor can speed up tasks (write that function, nd that bug) and even serve as a
rubber duck to discuss approach. It’s like having a smart collaborator who is always available in
your IDE.
