💬 Vivi’s Thought
Creating a Custom GPT is like designing your own signature handbag — practical, customised, and a little luxurious. With your GPT, you’ll always have an assistant who works in your exact style, ready at a click.

This afternoon, I’m tucked away in the corner of a cozy café, sunlight spilling across the wooden table, the aroma of freshly ground coffee swirling in the air. I cherish this atmosphere, letting my thoughts wander freely. Designing my own GPT feels just the same: weaving efficiency with a touch of warmth, crafting not just a tool, but a constant, personal companion.
