It's like one of those things where in YouTube land, they say, it doesn't even matter what your content is. All that matters is your title and thumbnail. It's very similar in books where the title matters a ton and the cover matters a ton.
That makes sense. It's the same with YouTube, right? It's like... Yeah, totally. It's the same. So then I would... There's also another company I found. They're called Blurb.com. They also allow you to do layouts. So the layout of your book, which is cool about Blurb.com is... They have these templates. So you can go and make a children's book.
And then they have these children books templates or photography. Let's say you want to create a cooking book. You can do a photography one. So I think that's really cool. And again, in our world, no one talks about this stuff.
I feel like this audience loves tools. Yeah. And I feel like you appreciate this stuff too. We're all looking for unfair advantages in some way or another. Yeah. Another thing that is really useful, I think, is Spotify. I think they might have bought this company, but I don't know if they bought it or they incubated it. It's called findawayvoices.com.
And I'm pretty sure they actually allow you to do an AI narrator selection for audiobook production.
That's a huge process. And especially if you're, if you're Jane Wells and you sound like Justin Welsh, you don't want, you know, you don't want to be going into record, you know, renting recording studio and recording for, for three days straight. Sounding, sounding like you sound.
It is. And you know, just this morning I was talking to a finance, someone on my finance team and she was like, what is this charge here? This charge here, this charge here. And I'm like, Oh man, have I gotten carried away with AI tools and just like,
premium tools like are we going to spend on one hand i was like scared but then but on the other hand i'm like listen maybe i'm spending five thousand dollars a month on these tools but you know if you you wouldn't bat an eyelash at paying someone five you know a salary five thousand dollars a person at five thousand dollars a month right like sixty thousand dollars a year
So I think that's what's going to happen is these software tools from a percent of your costs are just going to increase versus human beings.
Yeah. Yeah. I, I agree. I got a couple more tools for you. And then our book will be launched. Our empire will be launched. Nice. Draft2Digital, number two. Draft2Digital. So their tagline, we are self-publishing with support. Self-publishing on your own is kind of daunting. I've actually explored this. It's daunting. Think about how many steps we just went through. So Draft2Digital...
is services and tools to help you with the publishing, the distribution, the layout, and the print-on-demand paperbacks. So they just give you a little bit of support.
Yeah.
Yeah. And, and, and you can, you know, what I love about some of these business models, like draft to digital is they don't, they don't charge you. They just charge 10% of the retail price. So they, they can tack on a little fee. So you would have charged $20 for a book. Now you charge $22, $2 goes to them. Um,
So anywhere where you can do a pay-per-performance or pay-per-usage or pay-per-task model, I think is going to be interesting to people.
Yeah.
Let me just pull, hold on one sec. I want to pull up a name of this new app. Okay. So I, I, first of all, I completely agree that it's overwhelming and what's going to happen is each vertical is going to consolidate and you're actually starting to see this in mobile too. Did you see this app that just came out the other day called hero assistant? It's pretty interesting. Um,
If you think about our mobile, like our iPhones, let's say, we have to open up our calendar. We have to open up our weather. We have to open up our mail. We have to open up Instacart, reminders. They're all separate apps and it's getting overwhelming. It's the same issue that... It's one of the same issues that you're describing in AI. It's like there's too many different...
services i mean ai has two problems one is how do you find out about these services besides listening to startup ideas podcast and then two and two is uh how do you how do you make it a cohesive simple experience and in in mobile you just have the issue of like you have the app store so it's easier to find the apps but
What Hero is and is really interesting and is getting a lot of people talking is it just brings all those apps, calendar, weather, perplexity, Instacart reminders into one interface.
I think that's what's going to happen in AI, but not yet. Because we're still in the soul searching, trying to figure out use cases phase.
