What they are
OBS Studio
The de facto standard for live streaming and screen recording. Free, open-source, and powerful, with a steep learning curve. Used by virtually every serious Twitch and YouTube streamer.
Snappa
Snappa is a browser-based graphic design tool aimed at marketers, bloggers, and content creators who need social media images, thumbnails, and ad graphics without a design background. It offers preset canvas sizes, a stock photo library, and a template collection covering most common formats. The editor is simpler than Canva, which suits users who want fewer decisions, but that simplicity also means less flexibility for complex layouts.
