Steal this business idea:

Ok so hear me out…

This would start as a YouTube channel but if done right could be built into a product with a huge following

THE CORE IDEA

“Cook with AI” – Every episode starts with a prompt to ChatGPT and then the host cooks the result exactly as the AI generated it. NO tweaks.

PHASE 1: 0–1000 subs

You just have to prove the concept.

Quick shorts with stuff like “I asked ChatGPT to give me a recipe with ingredients I already have… here’s what it said.”

Make the food then post a CTA

“Want the full recipe? Comment ‘cookbook’ below.”

Step 2: Niche

Pick a niche like: “Whatever’s in the fridge” cooking. (Realistic, budget-friendly)

Or things like

• “$5 AI Meals”
• “I only cook what GPT tells me.”
• “Date Night with GPT”

PHASE 2: 1000–10K subs

NOW start making long form videos:

Subjects like :

• “Rating AI-generated recipes for a week.”

• “I let ChatGPT plan my meals for 7 days.”

START A NEWSLETTER:

Email lead magnet example: “Top 10 Weirdly Delicious AI Recipes”

PHASE 3: 10K+ subs

Key here is to monetize

1. Digital Products

• Ebook: “The AI Chef’s Cookbook: 50 Easy GPT Meals That Don’t Suck” ($7–$15)

• Niche cookbooks: “High Protein GPT Recipes” / “Vegan GPT Meals” / “30 AI Date Night Dinners”

• Recipe generators: A Gumloop-style app where people input ingredients then get ChatGPT recipe + cooking tips.

• “GPT Meal Plan Generator”: weekly plan based on goals, allergies, macros, etc.

2. Membership / Community

• “The AI Kitchen Club” ($5–$10/mo)

• Monthly cooking challenges.

• Exclusive recipes.

• Early access to new videos.

• Livestream cook-alongs.

3. Brand Partnerships

• AI kitchen gadgets, smart scales, knife companies, etc.

Here’s the deal:

• Don’t pretend to be a pro chef. The selling point is that you’re not and you’re using AI to help.

• Lean into AI’s quirks and hallucinations.

• Make it easy for the viewer to try themselves.

ALL you’ll need

• ChatGPT

• Basic kitchen + camera setup

• Maybe Canva for recipe ebooks

• Gumloop or something for a GPT wrapper app

• Something for your email list

… totally a fool proof million dollar idea here 🤣
