The future of work is being shaped by AI, and the creative industries are no exception. From streamlining workflows to sparking new ideas, AI is transforming how creatives bring their visions to life. I’ve compiled five AI tools that I think will be essential for creatives in 2025.
Suno AI
Looking for the perfect custom intro music for your podcast? Suno makes it easy. This AI-powered song maker lets you create original tunes, whether you write the lyrics yourself or use ChatGPT to generate them based on any theme. Just tell Suno what instruments or overall tone you’re looking for, and it will compose a unique track in your desired genre.
I used ChatGPT to write a song about freelancing, business, and my website, cheptiony.com. Afterward, I pasted the lyrics into Suno AI, which quickly composed a beautiful melody with drums and flute. The results were impressive! You can listen to the song here. I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
Microsoft Clipchamp
Microsoft Clipchamp has taken the place of the traditional Windows Video Editor, and while it might be overlooked by some, this app packs a surprising number of powerful features. Beyond basic video editing, Clipchamp allows you to create screencast tutorials with a picture-in-picture view of yourself, and even offers a text-to-speech function with a wide selection of high-quality voiceovers.
Text to speech is my favourite feature. I use it to generate voice overs for any video project that I am working on. Here is the voice over I generated from this app for an ad video.
Aside from this, Microsoft clipchamp has several templates that you can use in your video. One downside of Microsoft clipchamp is that it only works when you have your internet connection on.
Adobe Express
Adobe Express empowers you to create stunning visuals and videos from text or images. Beyond that, it simplifies the creation of consistent characters, avatars, and animations. From graphic design and slideshow presentations to video animations, audio generation, text-to-speech conversion, and social media publishing, Adobe Express handles it all.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, this tool makes content creation accessible. It’s available for free, with a premium version offering additional features.
Gemini AI for Text editing
Struggling with grammar or clarity in your writing? Gemini can help. It offers writers quick fixes and enriches text with helpful context, providing different versions of your work, sometimes even adding details for improved understanding.
I use Gemini to polish the grammar and improve the clarity of my blog posts. My process is simple: after drafting a post, I copy each paragraph, paste it into Gemini, and ask it to rewrite the text. The results are always excellent. I then copy the revised paragraph and replace the original version on my blog.
Elevenlabs AI
ElevenLabs is well-known for its impressive text-to-speech capabilities, but they’ve been busy adding even more powerful tools. Beyond just generating speech, they now offer a voice changer feature, allowing you to record your own voice and then transform it to sound like someone else.
In addition, ElevenLabs now offers voice dubbing, voice cloning, and text-to-SFX. I encourage you to visit their website and explore these exciting new additions.
And that is it from me here. I hope you have found this article helpful.
