Octie is a 100% free A.I.-powered marketing assistant for ecommerce. Octie writes your emails, SMS messages, product descriptions, social media captions, subject lines and more in seconds!
Hey everyone! I have talked to thousands of brands, and one thing I hear consistently is how much time it actually takes to constantly come up with new emails, social posts, blog ideas, product descriptions, etc.
So! I embarked on a journey to see if I could make something that could help with this. Mostly my goal was just to code something myself as a side project, not something I get to do very often. It was just for the pure enjoyment of building the thing.
But! I showed it to a few people, and they wanted to be able to use it, so I polished it up and here we are. The response has been incredibly positive. In my mind, instead of writing a blog post about AI, I built Octie, and I'm very much enjoying it as a content medium :)
I hope you like it and have a little fun with it. Let me know of any feature requests!
p.s. I suggest using Octie as a brainstorming co-worker, you don't have to take all of Octie's ideas verbatim, but it can really help kick you off in the right direction.
@mattprd Hey Matt, appreciate you sharing your genius and brilliance. Been using and testing Octie's capabilities for a few days now and totally loving it!
Wondering since you already have Email Subject Lines generator inside Octie, can you also pls make Email Preheader Line generator or like these ones here: https://prnt.sc/K6c1gjo4Y8-M
Looking forward to hearing from you but hopefully you can make it possible inside Octie :) thanks in advance
Hey all! My Octane AI co-founder Matt Schlicht recently built a free A.I. side project that writes your marketing emails, text messages, product descriptions and more in seconds. It's focused on ecommerce, but it works for almost any type of industry.
It's called Octie -- named after our robot mascot!
We sent it out to some friends and we've been BLOWN AWAY by the reception so far. It's already written thousands of emails -- some of whom have already been sent to millions of people!
I thought the Product Hunt community would enjoy Octie. Please let him know what you think! It's still early, but it's super exciting to see the excitement brand owners have had playing around with Octie.

This is the tool that everyone needed but they didn't know they needed it.
@benparr was generous enough to give us a preview a couple of weeks back. Complete game changer for email, SMS, quiz questions, etc.
We will definitely be using this at Tako for our clients.
Big ups to @mattprd for building this.
Super impressed with the product. I don't know what kind of GPT-3-like AI sorcery is involved, but some of the content the AI "writes" is shockingly good. You may still have to finagle it a bit, or use it as inspiration in some case, but it does a fair job of getting you past the writer's block.
I feel like Octie is a few iterations from being friends with LaMDA and becoming sentient...
Hey Ben and Matt, thanks for launching Octie, I will be giving a try for sure since I'm constantly looking for AI-based tools in this domain. I'm often struggling with the accuracy and the "semantic coherence" of other tools (although I know very well the complexity behind GPT-3 algorithms modeling, which I assume you use).
Email generation as well as Product Descriptions are always needed. Is there also the possibility to train the model with Custom vocabulary and terms? or are different languages available other than English? And is available a recommended size of sentences to get the highest level of accuracy and context fitting?
Thanks a lot and congrats on your launch and solution!
Best,
Giuseppe
@giuseppe_di_nuccio Definitely considering the option to write in different languages, that would not be difficult to add at all. For custom vocabulary, can you give an example?
@mattprd The Custom Vocabulary, that is quite common feature in AI-based models, includes specific terms that you usually adopt in your context, industry, at work, etc. that are not recognized or taken in consideration by the trained machine learning model. Also Acronyms used in an industry or non-common words only used in some fields and areas.
Well, it is so-so with actual copy. BUT it is hilarious and has a sense of humor. Good job.

It’s been quite amazing to see how spot on Octie gets. It’s like having a creative co-worker who helps come up with ideas and unblocks writer’s block. And it’s super easy and intuitive to use!
