GitHub’s AI coding assistant, called Copilot, has gone from an experiment to a moneymaker.
“We are happy about the growing positive margins the product has” — Thomas Dohmke, CEO, GitHub
Now, everyone can create his/her own moneymaker. On Monday, OpenAI announced the GPT Store — the App Store for chatbots, or we can say AI agents.
Think of the foundational apps your iPhone has, and how the App Store revolutionized accessibility by enabling any developer to create and monetize their own applications. This concept has been mirrored by platforms such as Shopify, Salesforce, and Android, fostering thriving ecosystems of businesses.
The GPT Store aims to specialize ChatGPT’s versatility for specific industries or tasks. Whether it’s startup guidance, trend analysis, or summarizing digital content, these specialized GPTs are crafted using simple language, no coding required.
Take event planning, for example. Instead of navigating the generalist prompts of ChatGPT, event organizers can turn to a bespoke Event Planning GPT. This version could integrate essential planning tools and documents, update in real-time with local regulations, and manage event timelines all within the ChatGPT interface.
Another great example is Collov AI’s interior design agent. This tool leverages ChatGPT’s intuitive conversational interface to revolutionize the way we approach interior design. With just a simple conversation, the agent understands your aesthetic preferences and functional needs.
Here’s where it truly shines: the Collov agent can generate customized design renderings in seconds, allowing for rapid iteration. This capability means that visualizing and refining your space becomes a seamless, almost instantaneous process.
The opportunity here is immense. Tailoring a GPT to simplify a particular task by tenfold compared to using standard ChatGPT prompts could not only streamline that task but also pave the way for a lucrative side business. This could involve:
- Creating a GPT from a curated set of your most effective ChatGPT prompts, like crafting premier press releases.
- Consolidating niche information that’s challenging to locate but invaluable to others, such as datasets, standards, or proprietary guidelines.
For the innovators and early adopters out there, this is your moment to lead the charge, carve out your niche, and create your own moneymaker!
