I think these GPT wrapper apps are not too unlike Dropbox. They face a good amount of (fair) criticism as too simple of a solution for any technically minded person. But if you wrap some of the annoying parts into a nice app, you could have a very successful business for non technical people. Even technical enterprises can benefit from enterprise level security features that they themselves may not want to deal with.

I think Dropbox won on doing something well when anything similar really sucked, and I think a lot of that was in making the syncing 'just work'. A lot of online cloud drives were (and still are) untenable because of the babysitting and frustrating as files don't sync or are slow to access. With all these ChatGPT wrappers, the hard bit is pretty much a monopolized commodity, so they better do the annoying bits really really well. This is the second PDF chatbot I have tried, and they both suffer from the technical constraint of how many tokens you can fit into ChatGPT, meaning they refuse to answer global questions like "are there any mistakes in the document since the ChatGPT may be unaware that there is a document at all, but can answer, for example for a CV, "what jobs might you hire this person for". This might be fixable by making round trips, for example asking chatgpt YES/NO for does this query apply to this 1000 token section of a larger document, etc. etc. And of course if they get this right, and do it well, it becomes very useful. If it can answer based on 10000 stored pdfs, word docs, JIRA tickets, confluence pages and slack threads, then it would be super useful for organizations. It would hardly be just a wrapper then though.
