Hi all, I’m validating a product idea to help content creators in the professional knowledge/expertise/education space monetize your content with minimal effort – a chatGPT-powered chatbot that is trained on your content and allows you to sell access to chatbot as subscription/credit
You might be wondering:
- I can already sell my content on other platforms like Gumroad – That is true, but you are always guessing about which content to produce next to keep your customers willing to pay. With a chatbot, customers are asking their questions directly to you. You know exactly what your customers are looking for, and if any knowledge is missing from your current content catalog.
- There are hundreds of tools that allows me to create a chatbot that is trained on my custom data – But none of them has the ability to lock your chatbot behind a paywall. At least from my initial research. Please let me know if you do know a tool that does this. You will be doing me a great favour.
- Pricing? – I am debating between taking a cut of each sale or offering monthly subscription. Personally, I favour subscription because I can avoid taking a cut from your hard-earned cash and have a steady revenue stream to maintain/improve the product. Might be a barrier of entry for someone that just started selling their content, but good for established content creators.
- OpenAI will steal my content? – Not according to their API usage policy. Your content will not be used to train or improve their model, and can be requested to be removed from their server.
Basically, this tool creates a AI version of yourself that can answer individual customer questions based on your content, 24/7 – with a paywall feature to monetize your content. Happy to hear your feedback if this is something you want to use, or roast if you think it is a solution in search of a problem
Thanks!
