If you can think it, you can make it.
That’s the future I predicted last year, and it’s getting closer to reality.
ChatGPT released an app store, enabling ultra-focused apps for specific tasks.
Some of them have the chance to transform how you approach your content.
I’ve hand-picked these four to help you create content.
You’ll need a ChatGPT+ subscription to use these tools. I’ve been paying the $20 per month for nearly a year. The price is worth it.
Four GPT Tools For Creators
Each tool is a custom version of ChatGPT made by independent creators.
Links to each tool are in the title of each tool summary.
Write For Me - Writes essays, stories, and (newsletters!)
I’m not easily impressed with GPT tools, but I was with Write For Me.
For a moment after using this tool, I wished this newsletter wasn’t written in my tone of voice because it’s easy to pump out informative content using this tool.
Seriously, if you have any interest in publishing informative articles around topics you care about, you’ve got to try this one.
The tool helped me write an informative article about credit cards from scratch with minimal input from myself.
About 5% of this newsletter was written using Write For Me. The tool helped me get started, and then I rewrote most of it because it’s important that what you read is my voice.
With that said, it’s tempting to launch a new newsletter using this tool and pumping out article after article on a niche topic 🤷♂️
UniversalPrimer - “Learn Everything About Anything”
Ask a question, and it will tell you the answer.
Whether you’re doing research for your next video or blog (or want to sound smart in front of your friends), UniversalPrimer will help.
As my friend Jackson Fall alluded to in an interview in early 2023, the true power of ChatGPT is being a fervent patient teacher.
I asked it about the history of credit cards, why insects have 6 legs, and who thought of the first skyscraper.
The most valuable part of using the tool is that it asks you questions for you to answer (if you want to) to fill in any gaps of understanding.
Ask unlimited follow-up questions and it’ll bend over backwards to explain it in a way you can understand.
Effortless Book Summary - Summarize books
I’ll start by saying that book summaries are not a replacement for reading the book in full.
For content creators, a book summarizer is great for…
Reading a concise summary as a starting point for making content about the book
Deciding if it’s worth your time to read the full book for personal development
Getting book recommendations on a wide range of topics
I like that Effortless Book Summary asks you a few clarifying questions so you’re getting a useful answer.
Here’s one of the interactions I had when getting a summary of “Shoe Dog” the book I just finished.
Having just read the book, I can say that the summary is accurate!
Creative Writing Coach - Personal Writing Coach
One of my must-dos this year is to hire a writing coach in 2024, but this tool might just negate my need for a human coach.
I gave Creative Writing Coach an early draft of the newsletter above, asking if it would resonate with my intended target audience while being as short as it can.
I put the feedback to use, and that’s how the final version you’re reading now came to be!
I will absolutely be using this tool to improve the newsletters from now on.
What are some problems you face in your day to day as a creator? Leave them in a comment below and I’ll see if there’s an AI that can help you.
That’s all for this week!
Don’t forget that paid subscribers will receive their monthly edition of The Bleeding Edge Buffet this Thursday, February 1st (the first weekday of the new month).
For the rest of the free subscribers, see you next Monday at 7 am EST 💚
I just made the investment into canva pro for both production and 9-5 reasons. I create a lot.
But to see the “App Store” and knowing the limitless potential it doesn’t seem all that bad. Especially how often I’m using it.
Reading this has me considering investing in +
