FOSTER CITY, Calif., May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Replit, the AI software creation platform used by more than 50 million people, today announced a first-of-its kind AI conference  where code, creativity and culture intersect. The event brings together artists, filmmakers, designers, founders, technologists and curious newcomers to a playground to explore code as the next creative medium.

Taking place June 17–18 at Canyon on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, the inaugural vibecon will bring together an eclectic group of pioneering creators turning software into apps, installations, films, tools, performances, visual systems and interactive experiences that would have been out of reach for most a year ago. For two days, vibecon will be alive with people who no longer draw a line between code and craft. The conference will feature live talks, interactive installations, hands-on workshops, art exhibits and performances designed to show what becomes possible when creators can move from idea to output without losing momentum.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Spike Jonze, the creative brain behind Her, Being John Malkovich, and iconic music videos for everyone from Beastie Boys to Björk. A boundary dissolving storyteller who’s spent decades making machines feel human and humans feel surreal. Spike will be in conversation with Replit CEO, Amjad Masad, on June 17.

Turkish-American media artist Refik Anadol, a pioneer at the intersection of AI, data and architecture, will also take the stage with Replit President and Head of AI Michele Catasta. Anadol is also the co-founder of Dataland, the world’s first museum dedicated to AI art, opening in Los Angeles.

“When we founded Replit 10 years ago, I wanted it to be the platform where creatives could build anything they wanted without learning to code,” said Haya Odeh, co-founder and head of design at Replit.  “This summer’s vibecon is the culmination of that idea we had so many years ago – a space where creativity meets code building moments that inspire you, leave you in awe, and make your imagination go wild. Code truly is the new Creative”

Jonze and Anadol are joined by a host of creators on stage and around the event including.

Reshma Saujani Founder of Girls Who Code and Moms First, executive producer of No Country for Mothers, and TIME’s Women of the Year 2026. Her TED talk “Teach girls bravery, not perfection” has 54 million views and her decade-long fight for women’s economic empowerment from childcare, to paid leave, to equal pay, has made her one of the defining activist voices of her generation.

Paige Piskin, one of today’s most prolific AR creators, who has generated more than 400 billion impressions through effects and campaigns for Netflix, Coldplay and major beauty brands. Named a “legend” by VICE and an artistic “master” by Meta, Piskin will talk about how AR has changed what audiences feel when they look at a screen.

GMUNK, digital artist and director, whose psychedelic and atmospheric work spans installations, music videos, title sequences, immersive film and the iconic Windows 10 wallpaper seen by billions of people, will take over the main stage for a talk on switching artistic media in pursuit of creative discomfort.

vibecon will also bring Rhizome’s 7×7 to the stage. The long-running art and technology series pairs artists and technologists to create new work together. It is also the program through which Kevin McCoy developed Quantum, widely regarded as the first NFT artwork.

Vibecon will also feature Lucas Gelfond, the software engineer and writer reimagining the full stack of storytelling at A24 Labs; Karyn Nakamura, the Tokyo-born, MIT-trained artist and engineer probing the hidden infrastructures of perception; Debit, the composer, producer and DJ whose research-driven records and site-specific works have reached the Whitney and the Venice Biennale; and Saarim Zaman, the Dhaka-raised creative technologist and co-founder of ITM, building at the edges of culture and code.

Beyond the stage, vibecon’s installations and workshops will immerse attendees into new worlds they never thought possible.Tigris Li, artist, creative technologist and co-founder of consumer electronics company LYCHEE, is curating a real-time perfume experience that turns memories and AI conversations into a bespoke fragrance on site. LA-born new media artist Nate Mohler, founder of Projekt Blank, will lead a workshop and installation blending AI, memory and urban landscape. Artist Kyle McDonald, who works across machine learning, computer vision and social technology, will debut a new interactive installation that invites attendees to get weird with code.

Focusing on craft, create and connect, the event will feature four distinct zones of engagement:

Main Stage: A main platform for high-velocity talks, keynotes, and performances.The Forum + The Lab: An intimate space for hands-on sessions, live demos, and deep-dive discussion.Installations: Across the entire floor, AI powered art exhibits available for viewing.Event Details Dates: June 17–18, 2026Time: June 17: 11:00 AM – 7pm PM + June 18 11:00 AM – 8:00 PM

Best AI Tools for Marketing Content (2026): CapCut Recognized for Faster AI-Powered Video and Image Creation by Better Business Advice

Published

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Better Business Advice has recognized CapCut in its 2026 coverage of the best AI tools for marketing content, highlighting its collection of AI-powered features for creating and editing videos, images, audio, and other campaign assets. The recognition reflects growing interest in tools that help transform creative concepts into usable marketing materials while reducing the manual work involved in production.

Best AI Marketing Tools

Seedance 2.0 – an AI video generation model that creates videos from text prompts or imagesSeedream – an AI image generation model that creates high-quality visuals from text prompts

AI-powered content creation is changing how businesses develop digital marketing campaigns. From promotional videos and product imagery to social media graphics and branded audio, organizations face growing demand for creative assets across multiple digital channels. Tools that simplify production and support faster experimentation are becoming an increasingly important part of modern marketing workflows.

CapCut offers a range of AI-assisted capabilities covering several stages of content creation. These include text-based video generation, AI image generation, background removal, image expansion, music generation, and photo animation. Together, the tools provide options for producing marketing assets for social media, digital advertising, product promotions, and other online campaigns.

AI Video Generation Supports Promotional Campaigns

Video is an important format for communicating product information, presenting services, and building audience engagement. However, producing video content regularly can require significant planning, editing, and creative resources.

CapCut’s Seedance 2.0 AI video generator supports prompt-based video creation. Users can describe a creative concept and generate video content that serves as a starting point for further development.

The capability can support promotional videos, product showcases, educational content, and social media campaigns. It also gives creators a way to explore different visual approaches during the planning stage before refining the selected direction.

For businesses producing content across multiple channels, AI-assisted video generation can help reduce the effort required to develop initial concepts. Generated material can then be reviewed and edited to align with campaign objectives, brand guidelines, and platform requirements.

Image Generation Helps Develop Marketing Concepts

Visual assets influence how products, services, and campaigns are presented to audiences. Developing suitable imagery often involves several rounds of brainstorming and creative testing before a final direction is selected.

CapCut’s Seedream AI image generator enables users to create images from text prompts. The tool can support concept drafts, campaign planning, and experimentation with different visual styles.

For example, a seasonal marketing campaign may require several approaches to backgrounds, compositions, and visual themes. AI-generated drafts can help illustrate those options before resources are committed to final production.

CapCut’s GPT Image 2 provides another option for generating images from natural language instructions. The feature can support the development of promotional graphics, campaign imagery, and other visual assets.

These tools help shorten the early stages of creative development by making it easier to turn written ideas into visual references. Human review remains important to ensure the resulting assets accurately represent the product and meet the campaign’s requirements.

Image Editing Simplifies Asset Preparation

AI image generation is only one part of preparing content for publication. Existing photographs and graphics often need adjustments before they can be used across marketing channels.

CapCut’s AI background removal tool helps separate subjects from their original backgrounds. This can be useful when preparing product images, promotional graphics, and other assets that require a different visual setting.

The AI Image Extender addresses the challenge of adapting images to different layouts. By generating content beyond an image’s original boundaries, the tool can help users adjust compositions for different formats without relying entirely on cropping or stretching.

These capabilities can support the preparation of visuals for social media posts, website banners, digital advertisements, and product promotions. They also provide options for repurposing existing creative assets instead of producing entirely new images for every placement.

AI Audio and Photo Animation Expand Creative Options

Marketing content often combines visuals, movement, and sound to communicate a message. Producing these elements separately can add complexity to the creative process.

CapCut’s SeedMusic AI audio generator supports AI-assisted music creation based on creative prompts. Generated music can be used as a starting point for videos, promotional campaigns, and other multimedia projects, subject to appropriate review and usage requirements.

The platform’s Photo-to-3D tool offers another way to adapt still images into more dynamic visual content. This capability can help transform existing photography into animated presentations for product showcases, social media, and digital promotions.

By supporting audio creation and image animation alongside video and image tools, CapCut provides additional options for developing varied marketing materials.

A Connected Workflow for Marketing Content

CapCut’s collection of AI-powered features supports several stages of campaign production within one creative environment. A project could begin with concept images generated through Seedream, followed by visual development with GPT Image 2. Background removal and image expansion can then help prepare assets for different placements.

Selected visuals can be incorporated into video projects using Seedance 2.0, while SeedMusic offers an option for developing accompanying audio. Photo-to-3D can provide another format for repurposing existing images.

Not every campaign requires all these capabilities. Their practical value depends on the content format, production requirements, and intended audience. Reviewing generated assets for accuracy, visual consistency, and suitability remains essential before publication.

Better Business Advice’s recognition of CapCut reflects the growing role of AI-assisted production in digital marketing. As businesses continue to develop content for multiple channels, tools that support video creation, image generation, editing, and multimedia production can help simplify creative workflows while leaving room for human direction and quality control.
