What makes a custom GPT useful?
A useful custom GPT is built around a specific job instead of a vague chat prompt. Look for a clear name, a narrow category, a helpful welcome message, and prompt starters that match the work you need to do.
- Use category pages when you already know the job, such as writing, programming, education, or finance.
- Use search when the task is specific, such as resume review, lesson planning, SQL help, or product copy.
- Open a GPT detail page before trying it so you can review the author, description, prompt starters, and related GPTs.
