AutoQuill - Web App Development
The world is also changing. The major change currently sweeping the world is content. Can AI make content as good as an experience writer. Nope. And we're not in the business of trying to do that either. We are helping the inexperienced writer come up with content ideas, outlines, and drafts based on a data-informed content strategy -- taking the hours spent per week from 8 hrs to 30 mins. We're testing the product with 10 users over the next 3 months but we'd like to develop an alpha app in hopes that the tests are successful. The app will do the following: Import content via RSS. Summarize that content. Tag that content. Use that to draft outline and draft content(text and images). Send daily content actions to the user that includes reviewing the generated content. Schedule post for the user. Track metrics. Use metrics to improve the posts. Our tech stack is React Native Development using Expo, Astro.build, Directus.io, Nvidia. We have detailed requirement docs available. Difficult of the tasks range from intermediate to Advance.
