NINJA AI TOOLS

🥷 The “No-Editing” Way to Make Scroll-Stopping Videos

If you’ve ever tried to turn a long video into something short, catchy, and worth watching… you know it’s not exactly quick work. Trimming dead space, adding captions, finding the right moments—it all adds up fast.

That’s where Submagic steps in.

It’s an AI tool that helps you turn raw footage into scroll-stopping short videos—fast. Think of it as your editing sidekick: it finds the best parts of your longer videos, cuts out the fluff, adds dynamic captions, throws in B-roll if you want, and makes everything look clean and polished.

Here’s what it can do:

  • Pull out the most engaging clips from your long-form content

  • Add styled captions (in 48+ languages) that are actually easy to read

  • Automatically remove filler words and awkward silences

  • Suggest scroll-stopping hooks for the first few seconds

  • Add zooms, transitions, and visuals to keep viewers watching

  • Let you edit video by just editing text—seriously

Why it’s useful:

Let’s say you’re a freelancer trying to post more on LinkedIn, a marketer looking to squeeze more out of that webinar, or a YouTuber wanting to repurpose old interviews. Submagic can save you hours and help your content reach way more people.

Instead of juggling three tools and spending your whole afternoon editing, you just upload a video and let the AI do the heavy lifting. You still have control—you just don’t have to do everything from scratch.

Who it’s great for:

Creators, marketers, freelancers, social media folks—basically anyone who works with video and doesn’t want to spend half their week editing it.

AI TUTORIAL

🚀 Build AI-Powered Lead Gen Web Apps in Under an Hour

Want to test business ideas and capture leads without hiring a dev team? Here’s how to go from idea → working web app using ChatGPT and Claude Artifacts, in under 60 minutes.

🧠 Step 1: Use ChatGPT to Generate App Ideas

Prompt ChatGPT with your business and audience:

“I run a landscaping business in Columbus, Ohio. I want to offer a free web app to attract leads and collect emails. What should I build?”

ChatGPT might suggest:

  • Yard redesign mockup (via AI photo upload)

  • Lawn health quiz

  • Budget estimator

  • Curb appeal scorecard

  • Planting calendar, water ROI calculator, etc.

Pick one. You’ll build it next.

✏️ Step 2: Get a One-Shot Prompt + Spec

Ask ChatGPT:

“Write a Claude one-shot prompt to build a basic version of the budget estimator (or your idea). Keep it simple—just an MVP.”

You’ll get a long prompt you can paste directly into Claude.

⚒️ Step 3: Paste It into Claude Artifacts

Go to Claude AI → Click ArtifactsCreate → Choose Web App.

Paste the one-shot prompt and hit Build.

Claude writes the code and hosts a live prototype for you—no backend setup, no dev environment.

🧪 Step 4: Test + Collect Leads

Try the app: enter details, get estimates or reports, download a PDF. It’s fast, and it works.

Hit Publish and get a live shareable link. Use it on your:

  • Website

  • Newsletter

  • Social posts

  • Ads

Hook up email collection to your CRM if needed.

💡 Bonus: Build a Second App

Try a second idea like a Curb Appeal Scorecard (upload photo → get a visual grade + tips). Same process, 30 minutes tops.
