How to build your own GPT to monitor competitors (for non coders)
Everyone was going GPT crazy last year and although the chatter has died down, the technology has not.
Personal GPTs are a great way of getting information that is important to YOU organised and online.
This could be anything from keeping records on complex legal issues, organising your contacts or a hundred other examples.
Let’s look at a concrete example for employees or owners of SAAS companies.
A competitor analysis GPT.
SAAS products are complicated.
The more Enterprise you get, the more information you need to remember about your product vs your competitors.
So let’s create a GPT from scratch that might be useful for you or new staff to get up to speed with your specific industry.
- First create an Chat GPT Plus account at OpenAI here: https://openai.com/index/chatgpt/
- Create a GPT in less than 3 mins. See here: https://www.youtube.com/live/U9mJuUkhUzk?si=3UIbbMhptRR_7dvi&t=1552
- Add in your prompts and ways the GPT will behave.
- Now find your competitors helpdesks online
- List the URLs and scrape them through a tool like https://pro-sitemaps.com/cp/
- Put them into CSV files and add them to your GPT in the configure section as the data sets to be trained on
- Add in Customer reviews from sites like G2
BOOM! Thats it!
Some good prompts can help you like: "Contrast all platforms API features in a table with docs to URLs"
Tables are great for summarising data quickly!
The data sets can be summarised as well!
There is a lot you can do here.
Additional ideas might be: Add transcripts of calls where competitors are benchmarked or provide some numbers in a table that Chat GPT can turn into graphs!
Hope this helps!
