What they are

Adobe Express

Adobe Express is a browser and mobile-based design tool for creating social graphics, short videos, PDFs, and branded content. It targets content creators, small business owners, and educators who need polished visuals without opening Photoshop. The free tier covers basic templates and assets, while the paid plan unlocks Adobe Stock access, premium templates, and generative AI features. The brand kit and one-click resize tools are genuinely useful for creators managing multiple platforms.

Mailchimp

Mailchimp is an email marketing and automation platform used by independent creators, small businesses, and e-commerce brands to build subscriber lists, send campaigns, and track engagement. It offers drag-and-drop email builders, audience segmentation, and basic landing pages. The platform is mature and well-documented, though its pricing scales quickly once your list grows beyond a few hundred contacts.
