ChatGPT is powerful, I use it every single day but if it’s the only AI in your stack, you’re accidentally limiting your creativity, your speed, and even your monetization potential.
Let’s talk about what you’re missing… and how to fix it.
1. Grok + Imagine: Real Creativity in Motion (Literally)
If you’re a creator on X, Grok and Grok Imagine are not optional anymore.
They’re the engine of modern content.
What they’re best at:
Ultra-fast idea generation
Real-time trend analysis
Cinematic images and 6-second multi-cut videos
Storytelling prompts, character design, worldbuilding
Content that stands out instantly on the timeline
Creators are monetizing this every day by:
Selling AI-generated art packs
Creating prompt bundles
Offering video creation services
Growing faster → unlocking X revenue share
Posting viral visuals that bring in sponsorships
Grok + Imagine = the closest thing to a creative superpower.
2. Midjourney: Aesthetic Perfection for Visual Branding
Midjourney isn’t as fast as Grok Imagine, but its strength is style.
What it’s best at:
Highly stylized art
Beautiful posters & covers
Brand-consistent aesthetics
Unique textures and lighting
Creators monetize it by:
Selling preset style packs
Designing covers for newsletters, ebooks, and products
Creating merch and printable art
Custom branding packages for small businesses
If your brand needs a signature “look,” Midjourney is still a gem.
3. Runway: Video Editing for People Who Hate Editing
Not everyone likes editing video… luckily AI does now.
What Runway is best at:
Generating video clips from prompts
Removing backgrounds
Automatic editing
Adding motion, effects, transitions
Ways creators are monetizing with Runway:
Selling short edits (AI trailers, intros, reels)
Producing promo videos for clients
Repurposing long content into short viral clips
If you want to level up video but don’t want to open Premiere Pro… Runway is your friend.
4. ElevenLabs: Your Voice, but Superpowered
This one is underrated but crazy powerful.
What ElevenLabs is best at:
Realistic AI voiceovers
Dubbing your content in multiple languages
Creating characters with unique voices
Giving life to animations
Creators monetize it by:
Selling voice packages
Turning threads into audiobooks
Creating multilingual content equals more reach
Adding professional narration to videos
Your storytelling becomes instantly richer.
5. Claude: The Deep Thinker (Every Creator Needs One)
Claude is the AI that helps you think deeper.
What Claude is best at:
Long-form writing
Complex analysis
Research
Structured ideas
Planning full content systems
How creators monetize it:
Writing ebooks
Newsletter drafts
Research-based threads
Full curriculum for online courses
If ChatGPT is your fast brain, Claude is your deep brain.
You already know Canva, but the AI features are wildly useful.
What it’s best at:
Auto-generated templates
Fast social posts
Brand kits
Short videos
Presentations
Creators monetize Canva by:
Selling template bundles
Offering branding kits for creators or small businesses
Creating social media carousels, posters, or ads
Fast. Practical. Good for daily production.
The Future Belongs to the Multi-Tool Creators
If you want to grow faster, monetize better, and stand out on X or anywhere else, you can’t rely on one AI anymore.
Here’s the truth:
One AI → One viewpoint → One style → Limited growth.
Multiple AIs → Infinite creativity → Infinite income streams.
Your content becomes:
Faster to produce
More unique
Higher quality
More monetizable
More fun
This is how new creators blow up in weeks instead of years.
And remember… these are just a few
The AI ecosystem is exploding so fast that new tools appear every week — tools for editing, storytelling, automation, subtitles, scripting, world-building, 3D design, sound design, audience research, and more.
You don’t need to master all of them, but you do need to stay curious.
Because the creators who experiment, the ones who try new tools early, are the ones who stay ahead of the algorithm, ahead of the market, and ahead of everyone who’s still relying on a single platform.
My Advice to You Today
Start small.
Try one new tool this month.
Post something different.
Experiment publicly.
Let your audience see your evolution.
Every creator you admire is doing this: mixing tools, learning fast, publishing often.
And honestly?
The people who refuse to learn new tools are the ones falling behind.
Not you.
Not here.
Not in this newsletter.
If you’re new here… welcome.
This is where we build, experiment, and grow together, with real conversations, real creativity, and real results.
If this newsletter gave you ideas, forward it to a creator who needs a boost today.
See you in the next one,
