NINJA AI TOOLS

🥷 Make Images and Videos In Seconds—No Design Skills Needed

Ever had an idea for a visual—maybe a cool scene, a product shot, or even a short animation—but didn’t want to fire up a design tool or figure out how to animate it?

That’s where Flux AI comes in. It’s a browser-based tool that lets you generate images and videos from simple text prompts or existing visuals. You type in an idea, and Flux turns it into something you can actually see. No steep learning curves, no clunky software.

Here’s what stands out:

• Generate images or animations from scratch using just text.

• Remix or animate existing images with their image-to-video tools.

• Comes with editing apps (“Kontext”) to fine-tune results if needed.

• It’s fast—seriously fast. Their “schnell” model can crank out results 10x quicker than the base version.

• And unlike a lot of other tools, it actually does a solid job with hands and faces.

Why it’s useful:

This isn’t just for artists. If you’re building a pitch deck, making content for a campaign, designing game assets, or storyboarding a short film—Flux gives you quick, high-quality visuals without needing a full design stack (or a designer).

Who it’s for:

• Freelancers and indie creators who need content yesterday

• Marketers and startup folks who want scroll-stopping visuals

• Designers who want to prototype fast or try new ideas

• Pretty much anyone who thinks in visuals but doesn’t want to spend hours polishing them

If you’re even a little curious, they’ve got a free plan you can mess around with. Might be worth 10 minutes of exploration:
