Free tools
The Free tools tag collects guides to tools that cost nothing for making video, images, slides and subtitles, and for handling files. You will find what the free ChatGPT plan and Google's AI tools can do, how to make AI video from a photo or from text, and how far free plans go for video ads. Other guides cover Vietnamese AI voices, automatic subtitles, background removal, adding text to photos and trimming video without installing an app. A few self-hosted options appear too, such as Stirling PDF and a way to open PSD files on a Mac.
Start with the guide to free AI video tools or the overview of Google's AI tools, depending on whether you need video or office help. Then read the limits guide to see where free plans stop. Each guide cites official sources with the date they were checked, because limits, features and prices can change at any time.
