What they are

Canva

Canva is a browser-based graphic design tool that covers social media graphics, presentations, video clips, thumbnails, and more through a template-driven editor. It is used by solo creators, small teams, and marketers who need to produce visual content quickly without hiring a designer. The free tier is genuinely useful, though the most polished templates and brand-kit features sit behind the Pro paywall.

Happy Scribe

Happy Scribe converts audio and video files into accurate transcripts and subtitles using automated speech recognition or human transcriptionists. Journalists, podcasters, researchers, and video creators use it to save editing time and make content accessible. The automated tier is affordable and quick, though accuracy drops noticeably with heavy accents or low-quality recordings, making human transcription the safer choice for high-stakes work.
