- The Locator Tool (for geocoding existing images),
- HotCat (for easy adding categories),
- InternetArchiveBot (for finding dead links and adding archived versions on the InternetArchive),
- Pageviews (for providing statistiscs about page views across languages, projects and platforms),
- QuickStatements (an editor for Wikidata),
- MediaWiki code search (a search through all of MediaWiki core, extensions, and skins that are hosted on Gerrit),
- Commons Mobile app (to upload pictures from any Android device),
- NOA Upload Tool (which allows fetching scientific images from open accee articls and uploading them to Wikimedia Commons),
- Programs and Event Dashboard (an assistent for the management of wiki programs and events),
