Ryan Petersen transforms startup planning by using ChatGPT as his business development partner for Swintros, a new job platform technology. In this episode of Startups with Stu, host Stuart Draper watches as Ryan generates a complete business plan in real time using just one simple prompt to ChatGPT 4.0. The AI instantly creates executive summaries, market analysis, financial projections, and go-to-market strategies based on previous conversations Ryan had with the system. Stuart and Ryan show live adjustments to pricing models and financial forecasts, revealing exactly what's possible when you feed AI the right information upfront. Ryan shares his approach to working with AI rather than against it, emphasizing that tools like ChatGPT excel at business validation and identifying gaps entrepreneurs might miss. Building a startup in 2025 has never been more accessible, and this episode proves that comprehensive business planning no longer requires extensive spreadsheet knowledge or market research skills.
