I just wouldn&#x27;t use this. I think when applying for things like jobs or funding, you want to write every single word yourself. Because<p>* Honesty<p>* They can see how you think&#x2F;write<p>* The process of writing is thinking. Your application to YC might make you rethink some things about your business. Like a forcing function.<p>* Writing the application is a form of preparation<p>* You might get caught out with something false in the application that was generated and you missed the mistake. E.g. &quot;we doubled our users last month&quot; or something.

Good job on building something cool and putting it in front of people.<p>The biggest flaw I see is that it generates marketing-speak. It fails to answer well the most important question.<p>Here&#x27;s what it gave me:<p>&quot;Beddit is developing an, engaging online forum that will revolutionize digital communities via structured discussions, dynamic networking and unique engagement tools. Focused on aligning the often chaotic world of online networking, Beddit offers users a vibrant and organized platform for connecting, learning, and growing. Key functionalities include advanced topic filters, an interactive voting system for significant contributions, as well as real-time discussion monitoring for maintaining quality discussions. As we further enhance our product, Beddit aims to incorporate machine learning for personalized user experiences, AI moderation, and predictive analytics to anticipate trending topics, creating the future of online forums.&quot;<p>Here&#x27;s something better I wrote:<p>&quot;We&#x27;ll make a better Reddit. Users visit a website to post links and comments and we save them in a database. A background process ranks news based on number of views and puts them on the front page.&quot;<p>GPT-4s response doesn&#x27;t say how the site works. The description above does.

Looks really cool.<p>Does it need our own OpenAI API key to run this or it doesn&#x27;t need that?<p>How long are you planning to offer the lifetime offer? If I invest in lifetime plan, is it sustainable enough to run at least for 2 years even if you are not able to sell it more or produce MRR ?<p>Also, how can I contact you if I want to promote this via our platform? Do you have any active affiliate program for promotion?<p>Thank you.

Hey HN, just sharing a tool I made over a long weekend to help founders generate completed applications for popular funds like YC, Seedcamp, etc.<p>Just enter the name of your startup, along with a brief description of the service + founders, and it will use GPT-4 to create an application that takes into account the requirements of your chosen accelerator.

Wow looks cool.<p>Dumb question(s): do you store my data? does anyone have access to it? can you or anyone associated with the app other than myself read my data?
