Hey AI Break fam, Luis & Rui here 👋

Most people still use ChatGPT to write emails or answer questions. But the real power? Turning it into a digital assistant that actually does the work for you.

With the Agent Mode feature, ChatGPT can click, browse, and execute tasks on autopilot → not just think, but act.

We’ve spent the past few weeks testing it, and found 7 powerful ways to turn ChatGPT into your 24/7 business assistant.

Let’s dive in 👇

🚀 First, What Makes Agent Mode So Different?

Regular ChatGPT can:

  • Research

  • Write

  • Brainstorm

  • Summarize

Agent Mode can:

  • Click buttons

  • Fill out forms

  • Navigate websites

  • Run repeating workflows

It’s not “if this, then that” automation like Zapier, it’s adaptive.
When it hits a popup or a login form, it doesn’t quit. It figures it out, just like a human would.

That makes it a total game changer for service businesses and solopreneurs.

💡 7 Ways to Use ChatGPT Agent Mode Like a Pro

—

1. 🕵️ Competitive + Customer Research on Autopilot

Tell the agent about your business and ask it to:

  • Research your competitors’ offers, pricing, and USPs

  • Scrape forums and review sites (Reddit, Quora, Trustpilot) for customer pain points and desires

  • Turn complaints into a pie chart

  • Export all quotes into a spreadsheet of customer language

💬 Use those exact words in your copy. When customers read their own phrasing on your website, conversion rates skyrocket.

🧩 Prompt to give your agent:

You are an AI research assistant. Your goal is to perform deep competitive and customer research for my business.  

Business info:
[Describe your business, product/service, and target audience]

1. Research my top 5 direct competitors.  
   - Identify their offers, pricing, unique selling points, positioning, and website messaging.  
   - Return results in a table comparing key features, price ranges, and USPs.

2. Research customer language and pain points.  
   - Scrape forums, Reddit, Quora, and review sites relevant to my niche.  
   - Collect at least 30 verbatim customer quotes: what problems they face, what they love, and what they complain about most.

3. Create a pie chart showing the most common complaints.  
4. Export all collected customer quotes into a downloadable spreadsheet with columns: “Problem,” “Desire,” “Complaint,” “Praise.”

Deliver both insights and visuals.

2. 🧑‍💼 Build a “Virtual Advisory Board”

Create your own digital board of mentors: Alex Hormozi, Mark Cuban, Seth Godin, Sarah Blakely, Robert Kiyosaki.

Ask the agent to:

  • Research everything they’ve said or written

  • Extract their frameworks, decision models, and core advice

  • Summarize each into a profile (20–50 pages each)

  • Combine them into a custom GPT called “My Board”

Now, when you hit a tough decision, ask your “board” for advice.
They’ll challenge your thinking instead of just agreeing with you.

🧩 Prompt to give your agent:

Act as a research agent. I want you to build a “Virtual Advisory Board” made up of 5 world-class entrepreneurs.  

Board members:
[Example: Alex Hormozi, Mark Cuban, Seth Godin, Sara Blakely, Robert Kiyosaki]

Task:
1. Research everything each mentor has publicly said, written, or taught.  
2. Extract their decision-making frameworks, success principles, and mindset quotes.  
3. Compile a 20–50 page detailed profile for each person including:
   - Key philosophies
   - Decision filters
   - Signature strategies
   - Common advice patterns
   - Contradictions and blind spots
4. Format each profile so it can be used to simulate their thinking in a custom GPT (structured and labeled).  
5. Combine them into one “Virtual Board of Advisors” document and summarize the unique strengths each member adds.

Deliver: A single PDF or Google Doc ready to upload into a custom GPT called “My Board.”

3. 🎙️ Book Podcast Guest Spots Automatically

Prompt your agent to:

  • Find active podcasts in your niche

  • Filter by audience size (e.g. >1,000 listeners)

  • Collect host names, contact emails, and topic gaps

  • Add everything into a spreadsheet

Then schedule the agent to re-run this search monthly to find new shows.

⚠️ Note: the Plus plan allows 40 tasks/month, Pro plan allows 400.
