What they are
Google Veo
Google Veo (now replaced by Google Omni) is a generative AI video model that creates short video clips from text or image prompts. It targets creators, marketers, and filmmakers who need quick video assets without a full production setup. The output quality is notably high for an AI tool, but access is currently limited and tied to Google's broader product ecosystem, which constrains flexibility.
Substack
Substack is a publishing platform where writers host email newsletters and charge subscribers a recurring fee. Independent journalists, essayists, and niche experts use it to build direct audiences without relying on ad revenue. The platform handles payments, delivery, and a basic website automatically. Substack takes a 10% cut of paid subscription revenue on top of stripe fees, which becomes a real cost as an audience grows.
