Free tools for creators
Handy, no-sign-up tools to name, brand and grow your channel — free forever, built by the SidesMedia team.
These are nine free social media tools for creators — generators, calculators and checkers that run entirely in your browser. There is no sign-up, no email wall and no usage limit: open one, type your topic or numbers, and get the answer.

Relevant, search-friendly tags for your videos.
Estimate earnings from your followers and views.
Which tool should you use?
- Starting a channel or account — the YouTube name generator, TikTok username generator and Instagram bio generator handle naming and positioning before you publish anything.
- Working out where you stand — the engagement rate calculator gives you the number brands ask for, and the fake follower checker estimates how much of an audience is real (useful before paying an influencer).
- Planning ahead — the follower growth calculator turns your current pace into a date, and the YouTube monetization calculator shows how far you are from the Partner Program thresholds.
- Sizing the money — the creator money calculator estimates earnings from followers and views across platforms.
