Why use this instead of regular ChatGPT?

Regular AI gives vague, generic feedback. Critique Buddy GPT is designed specifically for creatives.

  • Actionable insights—step-by-step improvement suggestions.

  • Honest but constructive feedback—so you know exactly what to refine.

Regular ChatGPT? It doesn’t do any of this.
