What they are

Midjourney

Midjourney is a text-to-image AI that produces high-quality, stylistically distinct images from written prompts, accessed entirely through Discord or a web interface. It is used by illustrators, graphic designers, content creators, and marketers who need original visuals without a camera or traditional software. Image quality and artistic range are among the highest available from any AI image tool, though the learning curve for prompt crafting is real and outputs are not always predictable.

Speechify

Speechify converts text from PDFs, articles, emails, Google Docs, and ebooks into spoken audio using AI-generated voices. It is used by students, professionals, and people with dyslexia or reading difficulties who want to consume written content faster or more comfortably. The voice quality is genuinely good at normal speeds, but at very high playback rates naturalness degrades noticeably. The free tier is limited to one standard voice and a capped speed.
