@Nas_tech_AI That's just the half of it. Prepping for your defense is almost as important. Wrote about how you can use AI for this here https://t.co/MjJSxq1SOJ

So I cobbled together https://t.co/OBD2NHdXFx to try and help with a very specific problem: How do you "spar" with a live audience before the big day?

It's actually been pretty useful.

Yes, of course you could write a custom prompt and feed it to ChatGPT or Gemini. But I think being forced to actively listen to challenging questions without the comfort blanket of a transcript... and also overcoming the awkwardness of hearing yourself respond to said questions, is super powerful.

A couple days ago, I put the tool to the ultimate test: An actual PhD viva rehearsal.

Wrote about it here.

Probably my own micro tool, however it gives me an error saying "subscription_required".

But I think it's probably not a good use case for my app because the mandatory target audience drop down is pretty limiting.

For example, my app can be used by anybody who needs to prep for a presentation.

@oouglos Well that's 0.75 more than the rest of us. Congrats!

@SahilBloom Going to try this, not looking forward to it!

Time to start thinking about integrations.

Just made the mother of all pivots. Might as well have scrapped the entire codebase.

But I ended up with a much more streamlined web app targeted at individuals rather than being reliant on groups.

And I find it increasingly useful for myself.

Resumes, pitch decks, tech demos, PowerPoint/Keynote presentations etc.

@s_chiriac QA your thoughts

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@andrebuilds But can you charge for that?

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@BatsouElef Haha, not really. It's one of those sites that has a very tiny niche. I'll be happy to just cover server and API costs which are pretty small.

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@Tobby_scraper Subscription fatigue is real. I'm at my wits end myself.

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@eliana_jordan No. Because the app is ridiculously cheap to begin with. And also because margins are so tight that free users can easily eat up all your API costs.

Master your voice and stress-test your ideas by sparring with an AI audience.

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@Chase_Commerce Why do you need to book a call then? A little weird.

[S Chanda @Senkwe]

@minchoi Pretty cool. But how much does one video cost to produce?
