If you’re anything like me, you’re probably always looking for ways to simplify tasks and get more done.
As a fellow creator and entrepreneur, I know the feeling!
In today’s fast-paced digital world, AI has emerged as a powerful force multiplier for content creators, entrepreneurs, and innovators.
My journey with AI began in May 2021 when a Facebook friend recommended a tool called Nichesss—an AI content generation app.
Little did I know this would be my first step into a world where AI would transform the way we work.
I was instantly hooked!
It felt like magic—typing a few words and watching the tool spin out content.
It was like discovering a hidden superpower I never knew existed, and I couldn’t stop exploring new possibilities.
Over the next few months, I dived into a world of AI tools, exploring everything I could get my hands on.
After Nichesss, I transitioned to ClosersCopy, which I relied on extensively throughout 2022.
It served me well for nearly a year.
It became my go-to tool for content creation during that period, helping me streamline many of my projects.
But then, in November 2022, ChatGPT entered the scene, completely disrupting the AI landscape, and quickly became the dominant player in the AI space.
Suddenly, all the tools I had been using felt like outdated toys compared to ChatGPT, the conversational powerhouse.
As a result, many smaller AI tools seemed to lose their motivation to innovate, as users gravitated heavily toward ChatGPT’s comprehensive capabilities.
The shift was massive.
ChatGPT’s simplicity and conversational nature made it feel like chatting with a helpful friend who could assist with everything—from generating content to solving problems.
Soon after, competitors like Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity joined the game.
Naturally, I started using them all, tailoring each to specific needs.
While these tools were incredibly versatile, I began noticing a pattern: the outputs were often generic.
Sure, they were good, but they lacked the depth and personalization that truly made content stand out.
This realization led me to explore prompt engineering—the art of crafting precise prompts to guide AI tools in producing better, more customized results.
I started building a library of custom prompts tailored to different scenarios.
At first, I stored them in a note-taking app.
But as the collection grew, managing them became chaotic.
To manage my growing collection of prompts, I even published some of them on my website, hoping it would make them more accessible and organized.
However, I was still not satisfied as this approach lacked the dynamic flexibility I needed for real-time use.
With the growing library of dynamic custom prompts, I realized there was one thing missing: a tool to manage my prompts in one place so I could easily store, edit, and reuse them across various AI chat interfaces.
Keeping that in mind, I started digging for a tool to organize my prompts, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find any tool suitable for this purpose.
It felt overwhelming to juggle prompts across notes, websites, and other scattered places.
By early 2023, the idea had crystallized. I envisioned a tool where I could:
I spent weeks scribbling down every idea that came to mind.
It was a messy but exhilarating process—every note felt like a step closer to a solution.
I sketched out the concept in my notes but hit a roadblock—I lacked the coding skills to build it myself.
Therefore, I thought about partnering with a developer to bring the idea to life.
I thought about reaching out to a few people I knew could be a good partner, but as work commitments piled up, this collaboration never quite materialized.
The idea, however, stayed with me and sat dormant in my notes for almost a year until the middle of 2024.
In June 2024, Claude Sonnet 3.5 burst onto the scene, revolutionizing AI-assisted coding with its enhanced features and ability to generate complex code efficiently.
This breakthrough reignited my passion for the project I had long envisioned.
Suddenly, the impossible became possible—I could now develop my dream tool independently, without the need for a development partner.
With renewed excitement, I dusted off my old notes and prepared to bring my idea to life.
Quickly, I refined my ideas into a concrete plan, breaking it down into actionable steps, with sketches, workflows, and a vision for the tool I desperately needed.
I decided to build a Chrome extension!
Then, I started my research using Perplexity and learned the basics of app development.
Perplexity became my go-to tool for researching development concepts and learning coding basics.
Its ability to provide clear, concise explanations with factual data made the learning curve much more manageable.
With foundational knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (thanks to my background in web design), I used Claude Sonnet to write the initial code of my envisioned Chrome extension.
The first version of the app—a Chrome extension called SyncWin Prompt Manager—launched in August 2024.
It worked but lacked polish.
Realizing the need for better tools, then I tried everything from ChatGPT to Gemini to Microsoft Copilot for writing code, but each had its limitations.
Whether it was generating incomplete codes or misunderstanding my requirements, I found myself constantly tweaking and reworking the code, which took up valuable time.
I also experimented with NotDiamond Chat and Perplexity to further develop the app with more advanced features, they helped a bit but they often fell short of my expectations for customization, efficiency, and cohesiveness.
I needed a tool that could understand my existing codebase better.
Regular AI chatbots couldn’t handle multiple files at once or grasp the full context of my project.
I wanted something smarter—a tool that could look at all my code together and really get what I was trying to do.
That’s when I stumbled upon Cursor AI—a sophisticated AI-powered code editor that revolutionized my development process.
This tool was a game-changer, offering capabilities far beyond traditional AI chatbots and even coding environments.
Cursor transformed my coding workflow, turning complex programming tasks into simple conversations.
By leveraging its AI-powered natural language processing, I could now describe code changes in plain English, and the editor would intelligently implement my requirements.
It was like having a smart coding companion that understood my intentions precisely, reducing the technical friction typically associated with software development.
It helped me to implement advanced features such as dynamic variables and enhance the user interface with remarkable efficiency.
The tools’ ability to understand project context and suggest intelligent code completions across multiple files accelerated my development speed and improved overall code quality.
To make Cursor even more effective, I developed system prompts designed to generate highly personalized code efficiently.
This customization dramatically improved the tool’s usability for my specific project needs.
The Chrome extension started as a solution to my own problem of managing and using custom AI prompts effectively.
However, I quickly realized that this challenge wasn’t unique to me—many others faced the same frustrations.
That’s when I decided to launch the tool publicly, hoping it would help others overcome these obstacles and unlock the full potential of AI tools.
By sharing my solution with the world, I aim to contribute to the broader AI community and empower users to achieve more with less effort.
I rebranded the tool as SyncWin Prompt Builder to highlight its core functionality of helping users craft dynamic custom prompts and then released a private beta for testing.
Before launching the private beta, I spent around two months revamping the UI/UX to ensure the tool was intuitive and user-friendly.
This period of refinement was critical in aligning the product with my own as well as user expectations.
Feedback from early users helped shape the tool into what it is today—a reliable solution for managing and reusing custom prompts with ease.
Recognizing its long-term potential, I decided to rebrand it again to SyncWin Copilot—a name that incorporates our brand name and captures the tool’s vision as an AI assistant for creators and entrepreneurs.
Currently, SyncWin Copilot is free to use while I develop critical features like user authentication, multi-device syncing, and payment integration.
Upon completion of these key functionalities, I intend to launch the official version.
As a gesture of appreciation, early adopters will be offered exclusive discounts on the full-fledged release.
By offering a limited-time discount, I aim to not only incentivize early users but also gather valuable feedback to refine the product.
This approach helps build a community of engaged users who are invested in the tool’s development—in simple terms I want to make SyncWin Copilot a community-driven product.
Here’s the current tech stack powering SyncWin Copilot:
As the tool evolves, I’m exploring use these technologies to use before the official launch:
SyncWin Copilot is more than just another browser extension, it represents my personal journey of solving real-world challenges creators and entrepreneurs face when working with AI chatbots.
It’s born from countless hours of trying, testing, genuine frustration, and finding solutions to real problems that creators like you and me face every day, this tool is designed to make AI interactions smoother and more efficient.
My vision is simple: to make SyncWin Copilot your go-to helper for crafting and managing dynamic custom prompts for AI chat interfaces.
I desire to make it a trusted companion that helps creators and entrepreneurs worldwide unlock their full potential with AI chatbots, without getting bogged down by generic content outputs.
