Happy Thanksgiving!

I want to thank you for subscribing, and now reading, my newsletter! It would help me out if you would click on a link (any link will do). This tells Gmail and other programs that we are not spam. FYI - none of my links are affiliate links.

1. Your Life Stories

I have 3 kids and I’ll occasionally think about something that I’ve experienced that I’d like to share with them. In the past, I did share such stories but apparently, 2 year olds don’t remember much. There has to be a better way!

For these stories to persist so that my kids (now teens) can remember them and maybe pass them on to their kids, the stories need to be written down. What a pain! But with storly.ai it’s a breeze.

The AI will ask you questions in an interview and then write the story for you. Really couldn’t be much easier.

I think this will evolve into including photos and video (by searching the user’s phone, Google Photos, and the internet). So, for example, after your vacation, you answer a few questions, and a complete synopsis of your vacation with videos and captioned photos is created.

2. Your Personal Website in Seconds

I don’t have a personal website. Not that I don’t want one but I’m not just not that motivated to make one. I can muddle through Wordpress and I’m also aware of a few AI sites that will build a website quickly for you. But either way, I’d have to create a bunch of content.

Polywork.com to the rescue! You provide a link to your LinkedIn profile and it will create your website. [I guess I’ll have to update my profile.]

And yes you get to choose from a variety of different websites.

I suspect personal websites will become more common given the low effort to create them and they’ll be updated automatically via AI with relevant information based on the user’s social media posts.

3. A Smart Way to Start a Business

Starting a new venture is exciting! It’s also a ton of work. First is finding and then selecting the business idea from the countless opportunities. Then there’s market research, creating a business plan, etc. I’ve lost my motivation already - back to the sofa!

Now this can all be done in a day. With CompanyCraft.ai you complete your personal profile and it will generate business ideas for you (and you can enter your own ideas). But that’s not all!

You also can get variants on ideas listed and then a detailed description of the business, its customers, and the total addressable market (TAM). But that’s not all!

It will also identify the top competitors in the market and their strengths and weaknesses based on 6 metrics. You can then download this research report (a competitive analysis report) for use with investors. But that’s not all!

It will also help you create a business plan that includes summary financial projections for the first few years. You can then export it and edit it as desired.

I’ve seen lots of websites that will generate business ideas and some that will assess the viability of a business idea. I have not seen any that dive deep into the vetting process like this one. This site, and those like it, will save entrepreneurs countless hours. I see them eventually going even further by generating a company name, verifying the trademark is available, making a logo, filing state documents to incorporate, reserving a domain, setting up corporate emails, etc. - all in an automated fashion. 

In the News…

1.  AI detects Type 2 Diabetes based on a recording of the patient’s voice with 89% accuracy.

2.  Forward Health has launched CarePods! A self-contained doctor’s office to get a blood test, check blood pressure, and swab for ailments - all without a doctor or nurse. No word yet on a proctologist exam but either way I’m going to pass on that part.
