It seems like everyone has waited on ChatGPT to arrive to release their own versions of AI. Anyhow, it’s madness and you should start using it, if you haven’t already. 

Here is our favourite AI software that can help you with everything from content creation to idea validation. These solutions will undoubtedly make your life easier and more productive, or just question your thoughts.

Now imagine a reality where ChatGPT is pumping out business ideas and ValidatorAi is, well you guessed it, validating them for you, to decide if you want to pursue that idea. It’s already available now! So, let’s go through them.

ChatGPT (https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt)

OpenAI’s ChatGPT is a game-changing AI writing assistant that can draft content for you, brainstorm ideas, or even write code. You can even get ChatGPT to write it’s own prompts and then get to answer them!

ValidatorAI (https://www.validatorai.com/)

Before investing time and resources into a new business idea, you can use ValidatorAI to evaluate its potential and assesses the viability of your concept. We can imagine Accelerators and Founders using this one.

Dall-E-2 (https://openai.com/product/dall-e-2)

Dall-E-2 is an impressive AI-powered image generation tool that can create unique and high-quality visuals based on text prompts. We haven’t payed with it much, it’s the next in line to try!

Mid Journey (https://www.midjourney.com/)

Mid Journey is an AI-driven platform that helps you create stunning and hyper-realistic images. But you need to know how best to write prompts and improve them each time it generate the image. This one will suck out hours from you and you won’t even know what happened.

Stable Diffusion (https://stablediffusionweb.com/)

Stable Diffusion is an AI-based platform for generating high-quality, realistic images and videos from simple sketches or descriptions. We’ve seen some incredible creations, still very child-like drawings but what it does is very impressive.

Murf (https://murf.ai/)

Murf allows you to create natural-sounding voiceovers from text using AI-generated voices, including your own. Ideal for podcasters, video creators, and e-learning professionals looking for the perfect narration. Just write text and find the voice you like, and you’re done!

MailMentor (https://www.mailmentor.io/)

Craft compelling sales emails with the help of MailMentor’s AI-powered writing assistance. This tool helps you optimize your copy, making sure your emails are engaging, clear, and persuasive. It’s interesting software but we think that ChatGPT can do the same in spreadsheets.

InVideo (https://invideo.io/)

Turn your ideas into captivating YouTube videos with InVideo’s AI-powered video creation platform. With a user-friendly interface, pre-built templates, and a vast media library, InVideo streamlines the video production process. We’ve only started testing this one but it’s very promising.

There are a lot of other AI tools out there but for me, for marketing purposes these are the ones to play with for now. Until you learn how to use them you going to spend a lot of time on it, so don’t think it’s going to be a shortcut at first.

But the good news is, you can process large amount of data fast and roll out campaigns once you have it all set.
