Need help on free and paid AI tools

Hi,

I am looking for some references or recommendations from anyone who has tried and tested AI tools for their personal or business use.

Here is what I am looking for:

1. Text to Video creator for short and long forms. I know I will need some editing but the best ones which actually works. I tried filmora and Veed but doesn't work that great. Canva sucks big time. OR may be I am using them wrong.

2. I have created my YT, Instagram and Snap for sharing educational videos about digital marketing but I become Chandler as soon as camera is pointed at me. I can write the short form content and blogs but instead I want to turn them into Videos alongwith transcript for long form to post on website. This market is saturated with courses so, my plan is to just sell tools and softwares once I cross 10k followers. Want to write myself but want to use AI to make them better and turn them into videos. Also, need some AI tool to create infographics, images and convo cartoons.

3. I am working on changing my affiliate background from finance to digital products/eBooks/Cooking/High Ticket affiliate only as compliance is killing me. I was thinking of making AI videos and make money from it. For this I tried few tools but quality isn't good and designer costs were too high to test it out. Is it good and profitable to sell through platforms like Kindle, Coursera etc or should I just do it through my website.

Would a telegram, Quora or Reddit bot be helpful in posting to threads?

4. How to curate content of other creators and make pages for different niche, add voice over and get followers and then sell through it. Is it legal, does it have copyright issues even if I mention the original creator and give credit to them!

Yea, I moved on little from topic but yes, I am looking for recommendations on free or paid tools which helps creating images, videos, text to videos, ebooks, etc. Free is always good for testing but I can subscribe to few in range from $10-$35/month.

Veo 3 is good for this, but you need to do some prompting.

Nothing really good in this case. Some can do image generation but they are never really in point. Your best bet is to learn some canva workflows and use chatgpt or other ais to make the content from which you can generate the infographics from.

Depends on your own marketing efforts. In my personal opinion kdp is a high effort low yield game.

If you want an inch of brand credibility, do not do this. Atleast not on reddit and atleast don't post your own stuff as if it appears like self-promotion. If you run bots, you gotta be smart about it and make it look like organic conversations.
Which is way more effort than its worth.

If you want to create a brand: choose one platform. Make one account. And post within the rules of the community. No one will remember you if you leave a sour taste in their mouth.

It's gray territory. Does not stop the creator from filing a takedown even though you can win with a counternotice. But it's hassle.

It's legal if it's commentary or a substantial remix of the original content. Atleast as per us copyright law.

Don't do it if you can help it tho. It's unpredictable. Reviewers have gotten their account deleted.

Create your content normally. Let Grok edit your copy and produce graphics.
Use TechSmith Audiate + Camtasia Studio for production and distribution.

I will try out Veo3 as saw few reels yersterday on Instagram made with Veo, looks amazing.

I think I will focus on Insta and YT rather than diverting myself on too many platforms.

Thanks for detailed reply @Ashk881
