Use this to create your own chatbot, content generator, or AI assistant—no coding needed.

Why This Matters

Not a developer? No problem.

Thanks to powerful no-code tools, anyone can now build apps powered by GPT-4 in minutes. Whether you want a custom chatbot, writing assistant, or idea generator—this guide will get you there fast.

🛠 Tools You’ll Need

• ChatGPT Plus (for GPT-4 access)

• Glide (or Softr as an alternative)

• Airtable (for optional database use)

• OpenAI API key

⚙️ Step-by-Step: Build a GPT-Powered App with Glide

✅ Step 1: Decide What Your App Will Do

Is it:

• A writing assistant?

• A Q&A bot?

• A product description generator?

For this tutorial, let’s say: AI Idea Generator for YouTube creators.

✅ Step 2: Set Up a Google Sheet or Airtable

Create a table with:

Column Purpose

Prompt What the user types

AI Response The GPT-generated result

Category (optional) e.g. “tech”, “education”, “lifestyle”

✅ Step 3: Create Your App on Glide

1. Visit glideapps.com

2. Click “New App”, and connect your Google Sheet or Airtable

3. Design your layout:

   • Add a form that takes user input (e.g., video topic)

   • Add a “Submit” button

   • Output: Save GPT response back to the spreadsheet

4. Display the AI result in a text block or list

✅ Step 4: Connect GPT-4 to Glide via Make (No Code)

1. Get your OpenAI API key

2. Go to Make.com (formerly Integromat)

3. Set up a scenario:

   • Trigger: New form submission from Glide

   • Action: Send user input to OpenAI API

   • Output: Save GPT response back to the spreadsheet

4. In Glide, show the updated “AI Response” field to the user

🎉 You Did It!

You now have a working no-code GPT app.
