Imagine having a co-coach or assistant in your group program or course who’s available 24/7 to answer questions, guide students, and even provide personalised resources – all without adding to your workload.
Total dream, ammitrite?
Enter: Pickaxe, the tool that lets you create custom AI-driven bots (think ChatGPT, but tailored to your audience).
Whether you’re running a course, membership, or group program, Pickaxe can help you scale your support, enhance engagement, and deliver a standout experience. Let’s break down what it is, how it works, and why it might just become your secret weapon for delivering value.
Why Custom Bots Matter for Your Course or Program
A customised bot isn’t just a fun tech gadget…it’s a strategic tool that can:
– Save time: Free up your time by handling repetitive questions or tasks.
– Enhance learning: Provide on-demand support so your students feel empowered and never stuck.
– Elevate the experience: Make your program feel modern, professional, and like you’ve thought of everything.
Pickaxe is one of the easiest ways to build these bots. And you don’t need to be a tech wizard. Promise.
What Is Pickaxe?
Pickaxe is a platform that allows you to create CustomGPTs – AI bots powered by OpenAI’s GPT technology, but tailored to your unique needs.
Unlike generic chatbots, these CustomGPTs are trained on the materials you provide, such as course content, FAQs, or other resources. The result? A bot that knows your program inside and out and can provide meaningful, relevant answers to your audience.
How Does Pickaxe Work?
Pickaxe makes creating a bot straightforward:
1. Upload Your Content: Start by uploading your course materials, guides, or any other documents your bot needs to reference.
2. Train the Bot: Pickaxe uses your uploaded content to train your CustomGPT. You can also tweak its tone to match your brand voice.
3. Share the Bot: Once ready, your bot is accessible via a link, widget, or even directly embedded into your program’s platform.
4. Refine as Needed: As students interact with the bot, you can refine its responses to make it even more helpful.
5 Reasons to Use Pickaxe for Your Course or Group Program
1. Always-On Support
With Pickaxe, your students can get instant answers, whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM. This is especially helpful if you have a global audience in different time zones.
For example, if a student forgets how to access a module or needs clarification on an exercise, the bot can step in – no waiting for an email response.
2. Personalised Learning
Your CustomGPT can guide students based on their unique questions or needs. Want to create a bot that quizzes students on a specific topic? Or one that points them to the exact module they need? Pickaxe makes it possible.
3. Save Time (Without Compromising Value)
Imagine never having to answer “Where do I find the workbook?” again. By offloading repetitive questions to a bot, you can focus on higher-value interactions, like coaching or creating new content.
4. Customisation and Branding
Pickaxe lets you design your bot to feel like an extension of your program. You can adjust its tone to be formal, friendly, or even cheeky—whatever matches your vibe.
5. Seamless Integration
Pickaxe bots can integrate easily with tools you’re already using, like your course platform or community space. Whether you’re on Kajabi, Teachable, Slack, or Skool, embedding a bot into your workflow is straightforward.
FAQs
“Will my bot sound robotic?”
Not at all. Pickaxe allows you to set the tone and style of your bot’s responses, so it feels like an extension of you.
“What if the bot gives incorrect answers?”
Pickaxe bots rely on the content you upload, so they’re only as good as the materials provided. Regularly reviewing and refining the bot ensures it stays accurate and helpful.
“Is this only for tech-savvy creators?”
Nope! Pickaxe is user-friendly and designed for non-techy people. If you can upload a document, you can create a bot.
Final Thoughts
Pickaxe is a game-changer for course creators and group program leaders who want to deliver high-value support without burning out.
If you’re looking for a way to:
– Keep your students engaged and supported 24/7,
– Streamline your workflow and free up time,
– Add a modern, innovative edge to your program,
… then Pickaxe is well worth exploring.
