It doesn't feature any irritating popups which is refreshing. Does seem like a tiny-wrapper around an LLM... its not clear why I would use it instead of ChatGPT...?

Thanks for the feedback! It’s not just a wrapper around an LLM—Trickle lets users integrate different tools into a workflow, all through a document-like interface. You can build multi-step processes that can be reused or shared as apps. While ChatGPT acts more like an chat assistant, Trickle helps you create structured workflows, making it more powerful and flexible for personalized tasks. And best of all, it’s as simple as writing a document!
Examples that "grab live data from Internet and do work" are appealing, I think you should lean into that a little harder.
I'm really happy you picked up on that feature! Combining different tools to get work done is exactly what we're aiming for.
Its hard to pick up on that feature -- what do you think the font-size is inside of the image ? its not prominent enough -- maybe need magnifying glass graphic or something
To make a possibly imperfect analogy, Trickle is like a Jupyter notebook designed specifically for LLMs, but without the need to write any code.
