A ChatGPT Chrome extension that pairs 250+ expert prompts with your own brand context
A curated set of prompts written by named specialists in social media marketing, e-commerce copywriting and prompt engineering, browsable by category and searchable for common tasks.
Activate Alicent on any page and it reads that page's content to feed your brand, product or competitor details straight into the prompt, so output sounds specific rather than generic.
New recipes are added regularly and featured prompts are rotated, giving you starting points for ads, emails, funnels, SEO audits and content strategy without writing prompts yourself.
No separate app to learn — the extension layers onto ChatGPT in Chrome, so you keep using the accounts, models and workflows you already have.

Lets Pro and Max subscribers switch dynamically between Perplexity's in-house Sonar models and top external models (including Claude 4, o3-pro, and Gemini) or compare multi-model reasoning outputs side by side.
Provides dedicated project workspaces where users upload local PDFs, spreadsheets, and text files, configure custom assistant instructions, and run queries that combine private document retrieval with live internet search.
