What they are

Jasper

Jasper is an AI writing tool aimed at marketing teams and content professionals who need to produce blog posts, ad copy, emails, and social content at scale. It runs on large language models and layers in brand voice controls so output stays consistent across writers. The platform is genuinely capable for structured marketing copy, though the monthly cost makes it harder to justify for solo creators with lighter output needs.

Photopea

Photopea is a free, browser-based image editor that opens and saves PSD, XD, Sketch, PDF, and standard raster formats without any installation. Designers, content creators, and hobbyists use it to retouch photos, build thumbnails, and work with layered files on any device. It mirrors Photoshop's interface closely enough that existing PSD workflows transfer without friction, though ads on the free tier can interrupt focus.
