I asked the following question - “What should I build to help consultants who know AWS to people who are willing to pay to dollar”.

How is the answer I got from your service different than the answer I got from ChatGPT?

Since anyone can enter the same question for both, I won’t bother posting the replies.

I tweaked your prompt:

How can I help consultants who have AWS skills meet potential clients that need their services and are willing to pay top dollar?

Here's what Painfinder responded with:

"1. One pain point that consultants with AWS skills often face is the challenge of finding potential clients who are in need of their services and are willing to pay top dollar. Existing software solutions in this space do not provide a comprehensive platform for connecting consultants with clients in a targeted and efficient manner. However, there are opportunities to address this pain point by leveraging the capabilities of existing software products."

The difference is in the reviews. If some of the scraped user reviews that are included in Painfinder speak directly to the question, the answer will be more specific and higher quality. If none of the reviews are relevant, it will give about the same answer as ChatGPT.
