Five axes that matter for a one-person business. Each score is editorial, 1–10, higher is better. A tool that maxes every axis doesn't exist; the shape of the chart is the signal.

AdCreative.ai★★★★

AI ad-creative generation for paid social and search. Conversion-focused images, copy, and platform-sized variants in bulk without a designer on retainer.

The case for

  • Purpose-built for paid ads: outputs the sizes Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and TikTok actually want
  • Brand kit keeps colours, logos, and fonts consistent across every generated creative
  • Generates many variants in one pass, useful for A/B testing without an afternoon in Canva

The case against

  • No permanent free tier: 7-day trial is the whole evaluation window
  • Credit-based pricing can surprise mid-month at higher volume
  • Conversion-prediction scores are directional, not authoritative
ChatGPT★★★★

OpenAI's AI assistant. The most polished consumer experience, with image generation, voice mode, and the largest plugin ecosystem.

The case for

  • Built-in image generation (DALL-E 3) without needing a separate tool
  • Voice mode that genuinely feels like a phone call, useful for hands-free brainstorming
  • Custom GPTs and the GPT Store: thousands of pre-built specialised assistants

The case against

  • Default output style is more confident than careful, can be hyperbolic without prompting
  • Plus tier ($20/mo) rate-limits on the best models, Pro at $200/mo is steep
  • Long-context handling lags Claude (smaller useful context window in practice)
