What they are

CapCut

CapCut is a free video editor built for short-form content, covering trimming, transitions, captions, and AI-generated effects across mobile and desktop. It is the go-to tool for TikTok creators, though ByteDance owns it, which is a real consideration for creators concerned about data privacy or platform risk. The free tier is generous, and a Pro subscription unlocks additional assets and AI features.

Spreaker

Spreaker is a podcast hosting and live-streaming platform used by independent creators and radio broadcasters to publish, distribute, and earn from audio content. It combines real-time broadcasting with on-demand hosting and connects episodes to major directories like Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The integrated ad marketplace is a genuine draw for monetization, though the free tier is fairly limited in storage and upload hours.
