What they are

Swell AI

Swell AI ingests podcast episodes, YouTube videos, or audio files and generates transcripts, show notes, blog posts, social clips, and newsletters from a single upload. It targets podcasters and video creators who want to repurpose content without hiring a writer. The output quality is solid for first drafts but typically needs editing before publishing. A free tier exists with limited monthly credits.

Veed.io

Veed.io is a browser-based video editor aimed at content creators, marketers, and social media teams who need to produce polished videos without installing software. It handles trimming, subtitles, screen recording, and basic AI voiceover in one interface. The auto-subtitle tool is genuinely fast and accurate enough for most English-language content, though accuracy drops on accents and technical vocabulary.
