The chances are Chat-GPT has come up on your radar recently. It seems to be one of those things everyone is talking about. Arguably, rightly so, as there is no doubt it has the potential to start now finally shaking things up and achieving widespread adoption.
The impact on education and the future of work is still uncertain. It seems inevitable some jobs will be affected and even replaced, but if harnessed in the right way, there are huge benefits to be had by both individuals and organisations.
By grabbing all the attention recently, Chat-GPT has helped in another way by shining an even brighter light on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in business, highlighting the fact that there are so many other amazing AI technologies out there for you and your eCommerce brand to take advantage of.
We’re currently working on a handy little eBook that focuses on the best AI tools for you to use for each area of your eCommerce business. It’s not ready yet, but we thought, for now, we’d whet your appetite a little by giving you a selection of some of the AI tools worth investigating to help you with key areas of your business.
We’ve broken it down into a few key categories, with more to follow in our eBook.
Have fun exploring and playing around with these for now though. Let’s jump in!
Content Creation
Writing
Grammarly
One of the most well-known and widely used AI-powered writing assistants.
This tool won’t write things for you or come up with content ideas. However, it makes sure that what you do write, is written in the best way possible.
Use it everywhere online where you write – within emails, word docs, websites, notes, etc. You’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.
Craftly
Unlike Grammarly, Craftly will write content for you.
There are three simple steps for using this AI assistant:
- Choose what you want Craftly to write for (blog, social post, email, etc).
- Tell Craftly what to write (details, tone, audience, etc).
- Work with Craftly on the piece of writing (edit yourself) until you are happy with the content.
Jasper
Like Craftly, Jasper will create original written content for you in minutes. It’ll also come up with new content ideas for you. It’s a great tool to use when you really want to scale up your content output.
Chat-GPT (of course)
As its name suggests, this is a chatbot that provides users with information and responses to inquiries through AI – in a way just like a human would.
Here are some of the things it can do:
– Write an article
– Write a story poem
– Write some code
– Translate
And with Microsoft having recently invested even more, there’s no doubt this is set to revolutionise the tech world. There are plenty of alternatives, but Chat GPT sure is in the limelight for now…
Videos
Synthesys
Let AI turn your text into engaging voiceover videos, that use real humans and real voices.
Perfect for explainer videos, eLearning, and product descriptions.

Descript
One of the best promotional videos we came across.
