1. Meta Prompter

3. Research Report Template
❌ Previously, you needed Zapier to fill out a Google Docs template for auto creating research reports for your sellers.
💡Now we have native Google Docs integration. Create a Google Template (like the one below) with Variables. Then map the columns to those variables with the integration.

5. Perplexity for Prompt Research
📡 Perplexity.ai is quickly becoming my default search engine. I use it to research such as figuring out what steps could be taken to figure out if a company is using a certain technology.
📌 Then I take that output and use it to inform AI Agent prompts.
