Hey Product Hunters! 👋 My name is Bret, and I am the Founder of Baron.ai! We are very excited to launch with you all, and are very interested in getting your feedback on Baron. What Baron Does: Baron allows you to use ChatGPT in any app, natively on Windows, Mac, or Linux to streamline your productivity. It was designed to make using ChatGPT more accessible and easier to use. Features: 🖥️ Natively integrated on Windows, Mac, and Linux ⌨️ Call Baron with a hotkey anywhere (alt+spacebar on Windows/Linux, option+spacebar on Mac), in any app or web browser, no more trying to find the right browser tab, and switching between different applications. ⚡️ Highlight for context - no need to copy and paste text to feed ChatGPT context, just highlight the text you need, hit the hotkey, enter your prompt, and Baron picks up on the context and gets to work. 👩🏻‍💼 Profile Builder - craft expert personas that significantly improves response quality . 🧠 Prompt Engine - create, save, and share your go-to prompts to streamline repetitive tasks. 📖 Chat History - return to any conversation, at any time, to pick up right where you left off Why Baron? We created Baron to solve the two biggest issues users face when trying to adopt AI into their every day work stream: - accessibility, and quality/ease of use. Accessibility With Baron, AI becomes more accessible for everyday use - once installed on to your computer, all you have to do to access the power of ChatGPT is press the hotkey and Baron launches, front and center. Quality/Ease of Use Baron's profile builder, prompt engine and context aware features, enable users to leverage ChatGPT to its full potential without the learning curve. Don't worry about crafting the perfect prompt, with all the right context, and instructions. Instead, simply create a profile persona by filling out the relevant details of the expertise you're trying to access, and in no time you can be asking that persona any question. This results in significantly higher quality responses. Product Hunters, we'd be grateful if you try and rate Baron AI. We review every piece of feedback and use it to improve the product and experience. We've prepared a full featured free trial, and a forever free plan, no credit card needed.
@bretalarsen Bret, hats off to the Baron.ai team for this innovative approach! Making ChatGPT seamlessly accessible across platforms and enhancing user experience with features like the Profile Builder and Prompt Engine is truly commendable. I'm intrigued by the profile persona concept - how adaptable is it to specialized industries or unique user requirements? Baron seems poised to transform how we integrate AI into our daily workflow. Great work! p.s. Let's connect if you need some honest feedback.

Thank you for the feedback, @parul0_0 - I'd love to hear more! The Profile Builder is a real game changer, it is designed to be highly flexible to cater to specialized industries and unique user requirements. With Baron, you can create profiles that mimic specific roles or industries, such as a content marketing manager at a social media platform for product enthusiasts :) or a software engineer at a fintech company. The profiles save context and chat history, so every time you access them, Baron instructs ChatGPT to recall this context, resulting in more context-rich and accurate answers that align with the chosen profile. I'd be happy to give you the details behind some of the profiles I've used - it's amazing how good the responses get when working with an informed persona profile!

@bretalarsen Hello! I'm having trouble registering on your website. I spent 25 minutes trying to register, but ended up receiving a message to go to my email and confirm my registration through a link. I clicked on the link, but received the message "You're on your way. Feel free to close this tab." Then, I entered my email and password, but saw the message "Please confirm ownership of your email address by clicking the link delivered to your inbox." I tried to register with different email addresses, but nothing changed.

Hey @bari_hamelson - Thanks for letting me know. Can you send me an email to hello@baron.ai? We'll get this figured out for you :) In the meantime, be sure to click the email from your computer where Baron is installed.
I love the idea of effortlessly saving, reusing and sharing go-to prompts. Is it possible (or will it be in the future) to have any collaboration features, like the ability to work on prompts with a team? Also, does Baron support other AI models or is it exclusively for ChatGPT? Are there any plans to expand the range of AI models that can be integrated? Congratulations on the launch @bretalarsen! I'm looking forward to taking Baron for a spin.

@bretalarsen @gusoliveira_ Hi Gus, thanks for the feedback! We do plan to support many models in the future. Eventually, Baron will be the one-stop AI shop that incorporates a myriad of AI tools (images, audio, automation). We're just getting started!
Bret Larsen

@gusoliveira_ - thank you! The collaboration feature is on the roadmap in the near future. We are also planning on allowing our community to select which model the are working with - we're thinking on the same level ;). We'd love more of your feedback as you get a chance to use Baron!
That's great @bretalarsen Bret! Thank you very much for the response.
@bretalarsen @fishz Perfect! Thank you for the response and congratulations on the great launch and an even better product!

Thanks @dennis_aronov! It's definitely a game changer for makers/builders - it allows you to change the 'expert' you're getting advice from on the fly as you jump from role to role :) I'd love your feedback as you get a chance to use it!

The idea of launching ChatGPT in any app with just a hotkey? That's some next-level productivity magic right there. I'm curious, with the Profile Builder, can I craft personas that are super niche, like a 'Retro Gaming Enthusiast' or 'Vintage Cookbook Expert'?

Hey @jakeharr, Thank you for your enthusiasm! We're just as thrilled about the possibilities Baron AI unlocks. Regarding the Profile Builder, you're spot on. It's one of the core features we're most proud of. Here's the deal: Deep Customization: You can craft incredibly niche personas like you mentioned and it's not just about naming a profile; you can fine-tune the nuances, preferences, and quirks of each persona. Consistent Interaction: Once you've set up a persona, every time you invoke Baron AI with that profile, you're essentially continuing your conversation with that 'persona'. This means you get consistency in the responses and a genuine feeling of interacting with a well-defined character or expert. Iterative Refinement: Over time, as you interact more with a particular persona, you might find areas you'd like to tweak or adjust. The Profile Builder is dynamic, allowing you to continuously refine and evolve your personas based on your needs. Importance of Personas: The ability to create and maintain distinct personas ensures that your interactions with Baron AI are context-rich and tailored. Hope that sheds more light on our vision for Baron AI. Dive in and let us know how it goes!

Congratulations on the launch! 🎉 Baron seems super cool! Having ChatGPT at your fingertips, no matter where you are on your computer, is such a neat idea. The profile builder and prompt engine sound like they’re going to make using AI a breeze! I’m curious, any plans to roll out more features or integrations to amp up the user-friendliness even more? If you have more interesting things on the roadmap - Feel free to share those instead!

Thanks, @dzaitzow! I'm biased, but I've loved using it! Here are a few roadmap items on the horizon: - Choose your own AI model - Upload a document for reference - AI agent - ability to send Baron to accomplish tasks for you (schedule a meeting, email a contact, etc.) - Image and audio generation - ...and more!
Daniel Zaitzow
@bretalarsen Wonderful - If you had to pick your favourite of those tools - what do you think it would be?
Bret Larsen
Maker
@dzaitzow I'm really excited for the agent feature, myself :) Is there anything that sticks out to you?
Daniel Zaitzow
@bretalarsen I like the idea of an AI agent to accomplish my tasks - Sounds like the future but I guess its here!
