Try the Public Demo of Co-CEO
The Co-CEO GPT was originally meant for internal use only, but the early returns were so valuable—and interest from The Artificial Intelligence Show podcast listeners so high—that we decided to release a public demo version for people to experiment with.
The demo version lacks the personalized instructions (e.g. CEO bio, business model, revenue channels, mission, tone, etc.) that give Co-CEO its true magic, but it provides a quick way to experiment and realize the potential of a custom Co-CEO for your organization.
Learn to Build Your Own Co-CEO
In addition to the demo Co-CEO, Roetzer presented a December 2024 webinar—The AI-Forward CEO: Unlock the Power and Intelligence of a Co-CEO Custom GPT—to teach other leaders how to build their own personalized Co-CEOs.
The on-demand webinar covers:
- What is Co-CEO?
- How does it work?
- What are example use cases?
- Who should use it?
- How can you build your own?
Note: You will need a ChatGPT Plus, Team, or Enterprise account to create your own Co-CEO custom GPT.
