The 'Wrapper' Economy
You don't need to build the next ChatGPT. You just need to build a better interface for a specific person. A Micro-SaaS wraps the OpenAI API with a nice UI and specific prompt logic. Examples: 'AI Contract Review for Freelancers' or 'AI Meal Planner for Keto Diets'. The value is not the AI, but the workflow and the specific prompt engineering baked into the app.
