Hey, right now I am myself the AI in the backend after the initial questionnaire is finished. I wanted to validate the product / need before building out more complexity.

My initial reaction was that there’s no way the current generation can do everything your “AI assistant” can do. Looks like my impression was correct.

Your real competition is virtual personal assistants. The advantage of hiring them over you is that I can have a long-term relationship with them. Sorry to be pessimistic, but I don’t think you have anything here.

So there is no product. This is a scam.

That is one interpretation for sure but this was the cheapest way for me(a solo dev) to validate if the problem statement is real or not.

I am more than happy refunding $1 to someone who pays and isn't happy with the results. Otherwise people get 3 free credits.

So you should be clear about what you are doing. There is a difference between (a) validating a problem statement before you build a product and (b) selling a product that doesn't exist.

Cool I'll give it a shot.

I actually don't mind booking flights, but I truly loathe expense reporting. If you can do that task then you have a customer for life my friend.

Give it a shot! If you sign up there will be three free credits. Even if this fails I will get an idea of what people try to use agents for.
