is possible that you know this becomes a big thing and if it becomes a big thing i i think that this is probably one of the bigger wealth creation moments in ai i feel like i could rule where to know i could be what i want to from at all in it like a days off on a road less travel never look so we're doing a special pod because greg was on the pod where he showed me all these cool tools that he was using then at the end of the pod he was like by the way did you see that chat now has a new app store and i said no i didn't let's just record and i want you to show me what's going on with the new chat store and because this is my first million if you can tell me a bunch of interesting business ideas that you see within the realm of the chad store because a lot of people don't know this but i guess they could they could they could surmise this but when when the app store first came out a bunch of the biggest businesses came about because they were early they were first that is that is true so let me give you a breakdown of what happened why it's important and i can share a bunch of ideas that i think people should steal let me first talk about what what was announced so the other day sam alt talked it was dev day so open ai you know big developer conference he launched the chat app store and he gives this example of using fig in chat ep which is a the design tool and he says turn this sketch like something that he drew out into a workable diagram and it was able to do it wow i yeah it's absolutely crazy so the ability to use apps within chat basically turning chat into like a mini internet right you don't need a leave chat e if you can just connect to apps wow the other example he one of his teams gave was like course era the course platform course era can you teach me something about machine learning it connects to course era you have to connect with it so you actually have to like log in to it so you can see here if you're watching this on video it shows like how chat uses data apps may introduce risk data is shared with the apps and then it creates this canvas where you can actually like instead of you know it used to be chat was only text now chat tb has this canvas that you can actually consume content in a more visual way there's two ways to basically find some of these applications one is you add it and the other one is and the way the one i'm way more excited about is you just use chat normally and you say like imagine i didn't at course era here and i said i wanna learn about machine learning and it just brings up cor era as a potential app and that's the opportunity right because if someone listening to this could actually build an app so that it shows up when you ask it a question one of the things that sam alt mentioned the other day was he announced that chat has eight hundred million weekly active users so you can get in front of eight hundred million people every single week and sell them something wow okay this is awesome i just typed in on chat i said how do i turn a drawing into a to a fig and then i added the fig and it told me how to do it okay that's awesome yeah or here i'll just throw i'll do one live for for fun design a new logo for my podcast the startup up ideas podcast podcasts oh i forgot to like i forgot to mention who i want so i want i think can yeah canvas was was one of them so can't can the forty seven billion dollar you know design tool is one of the launch partners it connects to the app and then you just log in and it'll literally design a logo within chat using canvas software alright there it is there it is you know i would give it a six point five on ten but you know it's something that i can iterate with and it's not something that you're gonna one prompt yet but it is something that you know look it says review and select one to continue editing and then the font is so weird on seven them moment it looks like it's a misspelled but it's not i've never experienced that before look at the one on the far on on the third on the right yeah that sometimes happens with ai design is like the the the fonts a bit wonky so you do you you you have to again like not one prompt it's gonna take multiple prop prompts but like this isn't bad and that also took like two seconds like i can make this better that's awesome alright guys here's the thing about side hustle everyone wants one but most people over think about it and they never actually launch anything but because of ai you can go from my idea to your first sale in only seven days my old company the hustle they just dropped an ai side hustle crash course so basically what the hustle did was they looked at things that me and sean and hubspot cmo kit binder they look at stuff that we said and they broke it all down into simple bite sized steps which means you're gonna get a guide that gives you everything you need to launch a side hustle without any of the guest work so you can get it right now you can scan the qr code or click the link in the description now back to the show so that was the announcement zillow was another one which i thought was cool let me just zoom into it so you can see the full zillow experience and then you can use natural language to use the ai pretty cool dude i'm just kind of an awe right now a little bit i i think sean said something kind funny but it wasn't funny it was very real it was like every time i talk about this i have to realize or ask myself am i a all powerful now because i can do all this stuff or b completely irrelevant and whenever i like look at those stuff that's exactly how i feel but that's wild okay it depends on what he does with his information you know what i mean like of course the people who made the shift from web to mobile crushed it but there was a period of time on facebook i'm sure you remember had a bad app and they almost didn't make the the leap to mobile now they're like a trillion dollar company so i think that there's i'm not saying it's a hundred percent possible but it is possible that you know this becomes a big thing and if it becomes a big thing you're gonna wanna have an app here okay so what apps or ideas do you think are interesting to you right now i'll tell you but i also i i do wanna give the caveat that chat a couple years ago launched something called custom gp do you remember those yeah it was a flop i tried to make one it didn't work yeah and you know why i think it's a flop and why this is different no one wants to download apps no one wants to go to a gp store set stuff up download apps what makes this so much better is its contextual you just type in something on chat g and yes you know you you might have to mention it but if you don't have to mention it and you just said hey i wanted a logo design and then it pulls up can or pulls up another app the discovery opportunity is huge and it's just easier for the customer because they don't have to like set up anything yeah yeah yeah yeah i know i i think it's it's gonna be great i actually invested in one or two companies where there wasn't going amazing and they pivoted into a chat g plugin in and they're killing it and so like and we've talked about wordpress plugins and a bunch of different plug businesses and and i'm on board with those and so i'm eager to see what ideas you have that are related to chat for both apps and plugins cool so i've got fifteen ideas that i scraped from my d browser dot com my app i want you to pick like we can talk about one you know these are my the ones that are highlighted are my favorite ones but i'm happy to pick and go through any of them go to so zoom in a little bit more but it looks like the ai tax guy ai tax so imagine if you're able to prompt file my quarterly taxes it shows a custom ui that shows deductions auto filled forms one click filing it connects your stride plaid and google drive and someone is gonna build my tax guy and a prompt on chat and it it's it's a huge opportunity you know what's interesting there's a guy on twitter who has a ai app that he made uploading your bank statement bank statement converter dot com bank statement converter dot com how much revenue as bank take statement converted dot com make doesn't it like fifty or eighty grand a month i think it's forty to fifty thousand dollars a month okay so it's a very very niche thing but it's a thing where if you need it you really need it and because of for a bunch of different reasons i have many k ones which frankly i barely know what k one is but i know that when my wife is getting ready to our taxes she's like i do the k one for this k one for that and we have like six or eighty of we have a lot of them and just finding them in my gmail takes forever because what happens when you invest in real estate or you know different projects you get k ones and they don't all they come from each vendor and they come at a variety of times and they're in all different formats so k one forms the same but like it's sent as an attachment in an email what would be intriguing is you could just do this to find all my k ones in my gmail fast that's so good like k one agent that's a great idea someone should go build it this dude from bank statement converter dot com is it's literally a dude one person to look at this website it looks like the berkshire hathaway website but for consulting pdf it's awesome it just you click a big big button convert to pdf and i think what you're gonna see potentially happen with to with with this news is apps like this are going to live within chat e so if you ever saw stories about people like banks sam and converting you're like i wish i started that that's so simple if you're listening to this you're early now is the time you should be building that within chat s sdk today's episode is brought to you by hubspot being a know at all used to be because considered a bad thing but in business knowing it all it's everything because right now businesses are only using about twenty percent of their data unless you have hubspot that's where they take data that's buried in emails and call logs and meaning notes they become insights that help you grow your business because when you know more you grow more you see being don't know it all isn't so bad after all visit hubspot dot com to learn more today alright what's another one you tell me you which ones ph in g fancy the ai healthcare care concierge so here's the prop find me the best dermatologist near me that takes blue cross your app connects the z doc insurance networks and then shows an interactive local map and booking options and then you just make money with affiliate like this is just or that gets acquired by z dock or some of these big companies but if you can own this high demand query worth a lot of money how would you make this well i'm lucky right like i i have a design firm that builds apps like this so i would just hire my own firm to build these apps like we we just announced we're building apps like this so i would just use my firm but if i didn't have a firm and i'm just a one man person i'm using you know cloud code and i'm building i'm our cursor and i'm i'm building this out how long would that take i would say realistically two to three weeks to get something that's working really well and then you need a probably well then you'd have to make sure that you get approved by open ai which you know might take some more time but maybe four or four weeks in total thirty days that's crazy the other thing i would do like you know i'm talking my own book but this is i build this for myself is i would you know there's a a button on idea browser that's build this idea i don't think i've ever shown this publicly anywhere but you can actually just go and build for like the ad creative the brand package the landing page the content calendar the email funnel system the email sequence the lead magnet with all the optimized prompts and that's what i would do have you ever seen that meme of like a big meat head sitting at the computer and he's like build me a business that makes a hundred million in revenue in three days don't make any mistakes start now yeah yeah it's still need you still need a human now you know like i think the mistake a lot of people make is they'll use something like something like this or or just they'll prompt themselves and they'll be like why aren't customers coming well it's you this is like an opt all your optimized prompts in one place specific to each l or ai tool but you still need to like review it make sure it works and optimize it from there so that's what i would do i would probably do first version on on you know idea browser probably use you know claude v zero get some emails and try to just try to launch something in thirty days my last company the hustle the year we sold i was thirty one years old and we were gonna do about eighteen million dollars in revenue i frankly didn't have a lot of peers i didn't know a lot of people who were ambitious like me and this meant that i was making decisions that could cost me maybe five ten even more millions of dollars worth the money i was making them all by myself this all changed however when i got a group of peers and that's by the way how this podcast sort of started sean was in my group and we met every month it sort of became a personal board of directors and it frankly changed my life and that's why i started my company hampton join hampton dot com the entire idea is that we make core groups just like this just like the one that i had of other entrepreneurs who have been there done that and we give you guys a time and a place to sit down and have these very honest confidential conversations where you can share business ideas you could talk about hiring you could talk about all these decisions that you typically have to make all by yourself the biggest risk in my opinion is not failing you're you're gonna be fine your business is probably gonna work it's that in ten years you look back and you think damn i blew it i blew this opportunity because i was making decisions by myself i was making decisions out of fear and i did not grow i did not maximize the opportunity i'm telling you it can save you ten years of headache and of heartache and you can make better decisions so much faster and the best part is that with hampton these core groups that we make we make them in real life in your city we're in atlanta austin boston chicago dallas denver london la miami new york s f toronto and vancouver and so if you're running an internet company that does at least three million dollars in revenue or you raised at least three million dollars in funding or you've sold a company for at least ten million dollars go to join hampton dot com this is my company sam from m m i review every single person who applies so again join hampton dot com alright what else i'll see out this is fun keep going so memes are getting more and more popular especially in an ai age i think that whoever owns the make a meme about you know x y z topic is you know probably makes a few million dollars a year can you do this now in chad or per complexity per complexities comment you could do it on chad eb it's just not optimized and that's the opportunity is like that's why dev day happen right chat jb realizes that they need apps like this i think they realized two things they need apps like this to exist so that people stay on the platform more and they realize that they can do everything so what's what's ai grandma this is is a fun one you know i i think that a lot of people are feeling overwhelmed right now and they might not want andrew hub advice or even greg guys work advice or sam advice sometimes we just need an ai grandma to give us old school warm blunt and human advice so i think that there's an need to build like a life adviser and you build a brand around like an eighty five year old woman who like bake apple pies have you built any of these yeah well i'm we're building like actively right now for yourself or clients for both and that's gonna take two to three weeks to get the mvp yeah mvp it depends like what we're building like you know a grandma could take you know a few days but like if you're building like your k one one you know what that's like a little more that's more complicated so it depends which one but it can take anywhere from days to yeah for an mvp thirty days let's talk about this credit score credit score one man up until so when up until recently i had a very low credit score because i didn't use too much credit but i didn't realize that i had a apparent one time i'd like fell on a on a when i had a job years and years ago and i had to think an ambulance ride and i didn't realize they didn't pay it and so my credit got ding and so i had a credit score i never checked it of like five eighty and i was like what the hell and when i wanted to get a mortgage for a house i couldn't get a mortgage and i was searching for how do i like how do i make my credit better like is there a firm i can hire just do the work for me and it was impossible and it's incredibly scamming the credit repair industry was incredibly scam me and so i'm eager to hear how you can improve my credit yeah so i had the same problem which is why i added this here so i actually don't have a great credit score i don't have a bad credit score it says fair but i've started sold you know companies like i should have a good credit score you know so i'm not sure why but like banks don't have banks and companies like ex ex they're they're let's just say they're not at the forefront of technology yeah so i think that there's an opportunity to i think there's tons of people who are asking how do i fix my credit score you can actually go and check that keyword volume it's was worth so much money and you know if you can have something that it detects that you know it detects the intent it surfaces your app i think you need to have a really good domain like repair my credit score dot com that's probably taken but something like that one of the reasons why bank statement converter dot com worked is because the domain was really good so you'd you know there is gonna be a bit more of a startup up cost here you might have to spend ten fifteen twenty thousand dollars on a domain but i think that this is one of the more no brainer examples where you know it connects to it you know equifax or ex experience there's this interactive ui with dispute templates score simulations sliders next step actions and then you just either do referral fees or you charge for it does do the dot ais do just as good as a dot com from a seo perspective from a app perspective seo dot com is like your is manhattan you know dot ai is like you're it's your it's williamsburg you know it's so cool but manhattan manhattan well it's the dot ai is available my friend oh is it yeah repair my credit score dot ai why don't we buy the the domain and get you know give it to someone who like likes and comments on this youtube video i i can do that or you know or something like that and and know just inspire people to actually go in because i want people to build apps you know that's a good idea i'll i'll buy i can i'll buy and give it to someone yeah it's fifty bucks for year one i mean and i have to use per complexities comment to find the discount code and do you you don't own any equity you're just giving it to them for free right i for no i they can have it it's just like a a fifty dollar gift from m to them if if if they get to a million dollars a year what do they would they need to do what do they have to do for you like a hundred dollar door gift card would suffice a two x return yeah yeah a door dash gift gift card if i get the if i can get like like so much chick f a and i don't even want chick f filet a i just want the un breaded chicken nuggets if i can just get like about four pounds of that that would be that would been worth the time cool alright well thanks for thanks for having me on it and hope you're inspired thank you greg that's it that's a problem i feel like i could rule world i know i could be what i want to apartment at all in it like a day's off on a goal less travel never looking back this
