Presentation Creator uses AI to do the heavy lifting, so you can focus on your ideas instead of slide design.\n\n## What It Does\n\nPresentation Creator takes the notes and bullet points you already have and transforms them into a beautifully structured presentation. Need to make changes after the first draft? Just describe what you want updated and the AI will apply your feedback automatically — no manual editing required.\n\n## How to Use\n\n### 1. Create Your First Presentation\n\n1. Open the **Notes** tab and type (or paste) your content — bullet points, headings, key metrics, talking points, anything you have.\n2. Click **Draft Presentation** in the sidebar.\n3. Watch the AI build your presentation and preview it instantly in the right-hand panel.\n4. Use the **Download** button to save your presentation as a standalone HTML file you can open in any browser.\n\n### 2. Refine and Update\n\nNot quite right? No problem — just tell the AI what to change:\n\n1. Switch to the **Update Notes** tab.\n2. Describe the changes you want — add a slide, tweak the color scheme, reorder sections, update a number, remove something that\u0027s no longer relevant.\n3. Click **Update Presentation** and the AI will apply your changes while keeping everything else intact.\n\n### 3. Preview and Share\n\n- The **Preview panel** shows your presentation live as it\u0027s generated.\n- Use the **refresh** button to reload the preview at any time.\n- Use the **open in new tab** button to view your presentation full-screen.\n- Use the **download** button to save the file and share it with others.\n\n## Tips for Great Results\n\n- **More detail \u003d better slides.** The more context you give in your notes, the more accurate and complete your presentation will be.\n- **Be specific with updates.** Instead of \"make it better,\" try \"change the title font to be larger\" or \"add a slide summarizing next steps after the metrics slide.\"\n- **Iterate freely.** You can run updates as many times as you like — each pass refines the presentation further.\n\n## Settings\n\nHead to the **Settings** tab to choose which AI models power your presentations. You can select a smarter model for complex creative tasks and a faster model for quick edits, giving you control over quality and speed.\n\n## What You Get\n\n- A complete, self-contained HTML presentation you can open in any browser — no special software needed.\n- A presentation that reflects your content and structure, not a generic template.\n- Fast turnaround — most presentations are ready in under a minute.","category":"Create","tags":["Office","PDF"],"hasBackground":true,"hasIcon":false,"backgroundUrl":"presentation-creator/background.png","videoUrl":"https://cognotik.com/tours/office/edit/presentation-creator.mp4","exampleSessions":{"Jurassic Jokes":"https://hosted.cognotik.com/presentation-creator/fileIndex/G-20260519-q8K076Q9/app.html","Business Review":"https://hosted.cognotik.com/presentation-creator/fileIndex/G-20260522-u9187Dil/app.html"}},{"id":"app-tex-wizard","name":"TeX Wizard","icon":"📝","description":"AI-powered LaTeX document authoring and PDF rendering tool.

Start building a plan that actually fits your life.**\n\nGoal Planner is an AI-powered planning companion that takes the time to *really*\nunderstand you — your goals, your constraints, your values, and what\u0027s tripped you\nup before — and then builds a concrete, personalized plan around what you\u0027ve shared.\nNo cookie-cutter templates. No overwhelming productivity systems. Just a thoughtful,\nstep-by-step process that meets you where you are.\n\n---\n\n## Why Goal Planner?\n\nMost goal-setting tools hand you a blank page or a rigid template and call it a plan.\nGoal Planner does something different: it *listens first*. Before generating anything,\nit gathers your context, runs your situation past five different expert lenses, asks\ntargeted follow-up questions, and *then* produces a plan — one that\u0027s grounded in\nwhat you actually said, not what a generic template assumes.\n\nThe result is a small, focused, realistic plan you\u0027ll actually follow, paired with a\nlightweight daily check-in habit and a live dashboard to keep you honest and motivated.\n\n---\n\n## What You Get\n\n- 📋 **A personalized intake questionnaire** — tailored to your situation, not a\n  one-size-fits-all form.\n- 🧠 **A five-perspective AI analysis** — your goals are reviewed by a Coach,\n  Strategist, Realist, Therapist, and Data Analyst, surfacing insights and blind\n  spots before the plan is written.\n- ❓ **Targeted clarifying questions** — a short follow-up that resolves the specific\n  tensions and open questions the analysis uncovered. Every question earns its place.\n- 📄 **Your personalized plan** — a concrete, measurable document written in your\n  voice, grounded in everything you\u0027ve shared. Three to five focused goals, clear\n  strategies, and honest obstacle planning.\n- ✅ **A daily check-in form** — a quick (under 3 minutes) mobile-friendly form to\n  log your energy, mood, progress, and priorities for tomorrow.\n- 📊 **A live progress dashboard** — charts, streaks, recent check-ins, and goal\n  status at a glance. Includes a simulated-data preview so you can see what it looks\n  like before you have weeks of real data.\n\n---\n\n## How to Use It\n\nGoal Planner guides you through five stages, each unlocking the next. Here\u0027s the\njourney:\n\n### Step 0 — Optional: Jot Down Some Notes *(recommended)*\n\nBefore anything else, you can type a free-form brain dump into the **Intake Notes**\nbox — your situation, constraints, aspirations, anything on your mind. This seeds\nevery stage that follows and helps the AI skip questions you\u0027ve already answered.\nClick **Save Notes** when you\u0027re done.\n\n### Step 1 — Fill Out Your Intake Form\n\nClick **Generate Form** under *Initial Intake*. In a moment, a personalized\nquestionnaire will appear — click **Open Form** to fill it out. It covers your goals,\ntimeframe, available time, obstacles, values, and more. Hit **Submit** when done.\n\n### Step 2 — Run the Multi-Perspective Analysis\n\nOnce your intake is submitted, click **Run Analysis**. Five AI experts review your\nanswers and produce a detailed analysis — surfacing insights, tensions, and open\nquestions. This usually takes a minute or two. You can watch the live status in the\n**Active Sessions** panel.\n\n### Step 3 — Answer the Clarifying Questions\n\nClick **Generate Form** under *Clarifying Questions*. This short follow-up (5–10\nquestions, under 5 minutes) is built directly from the tensions and gaps the analysis\nfound. Open the form, answer honestly, and submit.\n\n### Step 4 — Get Your Plan\n\nClick **Synthesize Plan**. The AI weaves together everything — your intake, the\nanalysis, and your clarifying answers — into a single, authoritative plan document.\nYou can preview it right on the main page once it\u0027s ready.\n\n### Step 5 — Set Up Daily Check-Ins \u0026 Your Dashboard\n\nClick **Generate Check-In Form** and **Generate Dashboard**. Then:\n\n- Use the **Daily Check-In** form each day to log your progress (bookmark it!).\n- Open the **Dashboard** anytime to review your trends, streaks, and goal status.\n\nBoth can be updated later — use the **Update Check-In Form** and **Update Dashboard**\npanels to describe changes you\u0027d like, and the AI will revise them for you.\n\n---\n\n## Tips for Getting the Most Out of It\n\n- **Be honest in your intake.** The more candid you are about constraints and past\n  struggles, the more realistic and useful your plan will be.\n- **Use the Intake Notes box.** Even a few sentences of context makes a noticeable\n  difference in how personalized the questions and plan feel.\n- **Don\u0027t skip the clarifying questions.** They\u0027re short by design, but they\u0027re where\n  the plan gets its specificity — vague aspirations become measurable targets here.\n- **Keep check-ins short.** The daily form is designed to take under 3 minutes. Don\u0027t\n  overthink it; a quick honest snapshot is more valuable than a perfect essay.\n- **Use the simulated data toggle** on the dashboard to preview what your progress\n  charts will look like before you have weeks of real check-ins.\n- **Re-run any step freely.** If you want to update your plan after a few weeks, you\n  can re-run the synthesis or update the forms at any time. Nothing is locked in.\n- **Hit Refresh (↻)** if the page seems out of date — it re-scans your files and\n  updates all the step statuses instantly.\n\n---\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n| Problem | What to do |\n|---|---|\n| **\"Run Analysis\" button is greyed out** | You need to submit the intake form first. Open the form, fill it out, and hit Submit. |\n| **\"Synthesize Plan\" button is greyed out** | You need to submit the clarifying questions form first. Open it, answer the questions, and hit Submit. |\n| **\"Generate Check-In Form\" / \"Generate Dashboard\" are greyed out** | Your plan hasn\u0027t been generated yet. Complete Steps 1–4 first. |\n| **A step seems stuck on \"running\"** | The status updates every 15 seconds automatically. You can also click **Refresh** to check immediately. |\n| **The AI model dropdowns are empty** | The app couldn\u0027t reach the model provider. Check your connection and try refreshing the page. |\n| **I want to change my plan** | Use the **Update Check-In Form** or **Update Dashboard** panels to describe your changes, or re-run **Synthesize Plan** after updating your intake. |\n\n---\n\n## A Note on Philosophy\n\nGood planning is a conversation, not a form. Goal Planner is built on the belief that\nthe *quality of the questions* determines the quality of the plan. That\u0027s why it\ninvests real effort up front — listening carefully, examining your situation from\nmultiple angles, and asking only the follow-up questions that actually matter — before\nproducing anything.\n\nThe daily check-in is deliberately short. The plan is deliberately specific. The\ndashboard is deliberately honest. Because the goal isn\u0027t a beautiful document — it\u0027s\na life that\u0027s moving in the direction you actually want.","category":"Perform","tags":[],"hasBackground":true,"hasIcon":false,"backgroundUrl":"goal-planner/background.png","videoUrl":"https://cognotik.com/tours/home/edit/goal-planner.mp4","exampleSessions":{"Demo":"https://hosted.cognotik.com/goal-planner/fileIndex/G-20260522-b6W0hijU/app.html"}},{"id":"app-health-analysis","name":"Health Analysis","icon":"🏥","description":"Multi-round AI health analysis pipeline: symptom intake, differential brainstorming, four-perspective clinical analysis, medical literature research, follow-up questions, and four personalized final reports (clinical summary, personal action plan, lifestyle plan, inner development plan).

Think of it as a knowledgeable research companion that listens carefully to what you\u0027re experiencing, considers many possible explanations, and helps you arrive at your appointment better informed and better prepared.\n\nRather than giving you a single rushed answer, it works the way a thoughtful medical team would — asking follow-up questions, looking at your situation from multiple angles, and refining its thinking as it learns more about you.\n\n---\n\n## What Can It Do For You?\n\n- 🔍 **Explore possible explanations** for your symptoms across a wide range of conditions\n- 👥 **See your case through multiple lenses** — from a primary care perspective, a specialist\u0027s view, an emergency medicine standpoint, and a patient advocate\u0027s voice\n- 📚 **Pull in relevant medical research** to back up the analysis with real clinical knowledge\n- ❓ **Ask smart follow-up questions** to help narrow things down and get more accurate results\n- 📄 **Generate four personalized reports** you can actually use:\n  - 🩺 A **clinical summary for your doctor** — professional, detailed, and ready to hand over\n  - 💚 A **personal action plan** — warm, supportive guidance written just for you\n  - 🏃 A **lifestyle plan** — practical diet, exercise, and habit recommendations\n  - 🧘 An **inner development plan** — emotional, motivational, and holistic wellbeing guidance\n\n---\n\n## How It Works\n\nThe pipeline runs in a series of rounds, each building on the last. You don\u0027t have to do everything at once — you can run each step individually or let the app handle entire rounds automatically.\n\n### Round 1 — First Look\nYou describe your symptoms and share some background about yourself. The AI then:\n1. Brainstorms a broad list of possible diagnoses\n2. Analyzes them from four different clinical perspectives\n3. Searches medical literature for supporting evidence\n4. Generates a set of targeted follow-up questions just for you\n\n### Round 2 — Deeper Dive\nYou answer the follow-up questions (via a simple online form), and the AI:\n1. Revisits and expands the list of possibilities with your new information\n2. Produces a refined, ranked set of likely diagnoses\n\n### Final Reports\nWith a full picture in hand, the app generates all four of your personalized reports — ready to read, share, or bring to your next appointment.\n\n---\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### 1. Enter Your Information\nHead to the **📝 Patient Input** tab and fill in two things:\n- **Symptoms** — Describe what you\u0027re experiencing in your own words. When did it start? What does it feel like? What makes it better or worse?\n- **Patient Notes** — A structured form covering your age, medical history, current medications, lifestyle, and other relevant background.\n\nHit **Save** when you\u0027re done.\n\n### 2. Run Round 1\nSwitch to the **⚙️ Pipeline** tab. You can run each step one at a time to review results as you go, or simply click **▶ Run All Round 1** to let the app handle everything automatically.\n\n### 3. Answer the Follow-Up Questions\nOnce Round 1 is complete, click **📝 Open Intake Form** to open a simple questionnaire in a new tab. Answer the questions and submit — your responses are saved automatically.\n\n### 4. Run Round 2\nClick **▶ Run All Round 2** to incorporate your answers and produce a refined analysis.\n\n### 5. Generate Your Reports\nClick **▶ Run All Final Reports**, then head to the **📊 Results** tab to read, review, and save your four personalized documents.\n\n---\n\n## Tips for Best Results\n\n- **Be specific about your symptoms.** The more detail you provide — timing, severity, what triggers or relieves them — the more accurate and useful the analysis will be.\n- **Answer the follow-up questions thoughtfully.** Round 2 is where the pipeline really shines, and your answers make a big difference.\n- **Bring the Doctor Report to your appointment.** It\u0027s written in clinical language that healthcare providers will find immediately useful.\n- **Read the Patient Plan for yourself.** It\u0027s written in plain, supportive language and is a great companion to the clinical report.\n- **Use the Lifestyle and Inner Development plans as ongoing guides.** These aren\u0027t one-time reads — they\u0027re meant to support your wellbeing over time.\n\n---\n\n## A Note on Safety\n\nThis tool is built with your safety in mind:\n\n- Every analysis round explicitly screens for **emergency warning signs** that require immediate medical attention.\n- Reports document not just what *is* present, but what *isn\u0027t* — helping rule out dangerous conditions.\n- The patient-facing report deliberately avoids recommending specific medications or clinical treatments.\n- All reports include clear reminders that they **do not replace professional medical advice**.\n\nIf at any point the analysis flags urgent or emergency symptoms, **please seek immediate medical care.**\n\n---\n\n*Built to help you become a more informed, empowered participant in your own healthcare journey.* 💙","category":"Think","tags":[],"hasBackground":true,"hasIcon":false,"backgroundUrl":"health-analysis/background.png","videoUrl":"https://cognotik.com/tours/home/edit/health-analysis.mp4","exampleSessions":{"Demo 1":"https://hosted.cognotik.com/health-analysis/fileIndex/G-20260522-PzGYI8MZ/app.html"}},{"id":"app-meal-planner","name":"Meal Planner","icon":"🍽️","description":"AI-powered weekly meal planning assistant: personalized intake questionnaire, brainstorm, five-perspective analysis (nutritionist, chef, budget analyst, lifestyle coach, behavioral scientist), clarifying questions, and four artifacts — plan summary, day-by-day menu, per-dish recipes, and categorized grocery list — with iterative update support.","badgeClass":"","type":"docops","path":"/meal-planner","appId":"meal-planner","readme":"# Meal Planner\n\n🍽️ Say goodbye to the Sunday-night \"what are we eating this week?\" scramble.

The more detail you include, the better the result. You can describe:\n\n- What the app does\n- Who it\u0027s for\n- Key features you want\n- How you\u0027d like it to look and feel\n\nDon\u0027t worry about being too technical — write it the way you\u0027d explain it to someone. You can even use bullet points or headings to organize your thoughts.\n\n\u003e **Example:** *\"A simple expense tracker for personal use. Users can add expenses with a name, amount, and category. Show a running total and a breakdown by category. Clean, minimal design with a dark mode option.\"*\n\n### Step 2 — Choose Your Build Mode\nPick how you\u0027d like the AI to work:\n\n- **🏗️ Full Pipeline** — The AI plans the project carefully before building.

Faster and great for straightforward apps.\n\n### Step 3 — Run the Pipeline\nClick **▶ Run Pipeline** in the **⚙️ Pipeline** tab. The AI gets to work — you\u0027ll see live progress updates as it builds your app.\n\n### Step 4 — See Your App\nOnce it\u0027s done, a **🚀 Launch App** button appears. Click it to open your app in a new browser tab. You can also see a live preview directly inside the **📊 Results** tab without leaving the tool.\n\n### Step 5 — Refine and Improve\nNot quite right? Use the **✏️ Update** tab to describe what you\u0027d like to change — fix a bug, add a feature, tweak the design. The AI will update your app based on your feedback. You can repeat this as many times as you like.\n\n---\n\n## 🧪 Testing \u0026 Quality Checks\n\nWebapp Builder includes a built-in **testing tool** that automatically loads your app in a headless browser and captures:\n\n- 📸 A **screenshot** of how your app looks\n- 🖥️ The **browser console output** (useful for spotting errors)\n- 🌐 A **network log** of all resources loaded\n- 📄 The **fully rendered HTML** of your page\n\nAfter testing, you can ask the AI to **review the results** and automatically write up a list of issues and suggestions — which you can then apply with a single click using the Update feature.\n\n---\n\n## 📦 Download Your Project\n\nYour app is yours to keep. Download it anytime as a **ZIP archive** from the **Results** tab. You\u0027ll get all the source files — ready to host anywhere, share with anyone, or continue editing on your own.\n\n---\n\n## 🔀 Version Control (Git)\n\nWebapp Builder automatically tracks your project\u0027s history using Git. Every time you build or update your app, your changes are saved as a snapshot. From the **🔀 Git** tab you can:\n\n- View what\u0027s changed\n- Browse your commit history\n- Create branches to experiment safely\n- Take a manual snapshot at any time\n- Back up and download in one click\n\nThis means you can always go back to an earlier version if something goes wrong.\n\n---\n\n## 💰 Usage \u0026 Cost Tracking\n\nThe **💰 Usage** tab shows you exactly how many AI tokens were used and the estimated cost for each operation. There are no surprises — you can see a full breakdown by model and by task, so you always know what\u0027s being used.\n\n---\n\n## 💡 Tips for Great Results\n\n- **Be specific.** Instead of \"make it look nice,\" say \"use a dark background with blue accent colors and rounded cards.\"\n- **Describe the user experience.** Mention how people will interact with the app — clicking buttons, filling forms, seeing results.\n- **List your must-have features.** Prioritize the things that matter most so the AI focuses on what\u0027s important to you.\n- **Iterate.** The best apps are built in rounds. Start with the core idea, see what you get, then refine from there.\n- **Use the Update tab freely.** You can run as many update cycles as you need — each one brings your app closer to what you envisioned.\n\n---\n\n## 🤖 Choosing AI Models\n\nIn the **💡 Idea** tab, you can choose which AI models power your build:\n\n- **Smart Model** — Used for the main code generation. A more capable model here means better, more complex apps.\n- **Fast Model** — Used for quick supporting tasks. A faster model here keeps things snappy.\n- **Image Model** — Used if your app needs image generation or vision features.\n\nYour model choices are saved automatically, so you only need to set them once.\n\n---\n\n## 🙋 Frequently Asked Questions\n\n**Do I need to know how to code?**\nNot at all. Webapp Builder is designed for anyone with an idea. Just describe what you want in plain English.\n\n**What kind of apps can it build?**\nSingle-page web applications — things like tools, games, dashboards, calculators, trackers, portfolios, and more. Apps that run entirely in the browser without needing a server.\n\n**Can I edit the code myself?**\nYes! Download the ZIP and open the files in any text editor. The generated code is clean and well-organized.\n\n**What happens if I don\u0027t like the result?**\nUse the **✏️ Update** tab to describe what you\u0027d like changed. The AI will revise the app based on your feedback.\n\n**Is my app saved?**\nYes — your idea, notes, and generated files are all saved in your session.

No coding. No fuss.\n\n---\n\n## 🗺️ How It Works — The Six Steps\n\nQuiz Wiz walks you through a simple pipeline, one step at a time. Each step builds on the last.\n\n| Step | What Happens |\n|------|-------------|\n| **① Quiz Idea** | You describe your quiz in plain English |\n| **② Design** | AI designs the structure and game flow |\n| **③ Game Data** | AI writes all the questions and answers |\n| **④ Build Code** | AI assembles a working, playable web app |\n| **⑤ Test** | The game is automatically run and checked |\n| **⑥ Review** | AI reads the test results and notes any issues |\n| **⑦ Update** | You give feedback; AI applies your changes |\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Getting Started\n\n1. **Open Quiz Wiz** using your session link.\n2. **Choose your AI models** at the top — the defaults work great if you\u0027re not sure.\n3. **Write your quiz idea** in the *Quiz Idea* box. A sentence or two is enough to get started!\n4. Hit **💾 Save Idea**, then work through each step by clicking the button in each card.\n5. When the **▶️ Open Game** button lights up, your quiz is ready to play!\n\nThat\u0027s it. The whole process typically takes just a few minutes.\n\n---\n\n## 💡 Writing a Great Quiz Idea\n\nThe more detail you give, the better your quiz will be. Try to mention:\n\n- **The topic** — What is the quiz about?\n- **Who it\u0027s for** — Kids? Trivia buffs? Work colleagues?\n- **How hard** — Easy, medium, hard, or a mix?\n- **How many questions** — 5, 10, 20?\n- **The style** — Multiple choice? True/false?\n- **Any extras** — Timers, themes, fun facts after each answer?\n\n### Example ideas that work well:\n\n\u003e *\"A 10-question multiple-choice quiz about classic 1980s arcade games, aimed at casual gamers. Include fun trivia and\n\u003e explanations for each answer.\"*\n\n\u003e *\"A 15-question true/false quiz about world geography for middle school students. Medium difficulty, with a fun fact\n\u003e after each question.\"*\n\n\u003e *\"A 20-question pub-style trivia quiz covering movies, music, and sport from the 1990s. Hard difficulty, mixed\n\u003e question styles.\"*\n\n---\n\n## ♻️ Refining Your Quiz\n\nNot quite right? No problem. Quiz Wiz makes it easy to tweak your game:\n\n1. Write your feedback in the **Update / Refine** box at the bottom of the page.\n2. Click **💾 Save Notes**, then **♻️ Apply Updates**.\n3. Your game will be rebuilt with your changes applied.\n\nYou can do this as many times as you like. Be as specific as you want — the more clearly you describe what to change,\nthe better the result.\n\n### Example feedback notes:\n\n```\n- The timer feels too short — give players 30 seconds per question instead of 15\n- Add a progress bar so players can see how far through the quiz they are\n- Use a dark colour theme\n- Show the correct answer and an explanation after each question\n- Fix the final score screen — it\u0027s not showing the total correctly\n```\n\n---\n\n## 🖥️ Reading the Screen\n\nThe Quiz Wiz interface is made up of simple cards, one per step. Here\u0027s what to look for:\n\n- **Status badges** — Each step shows a coloured badge: `pending` (not started), `running` (in progress), `done`\n  (finished), or `error` (something went wrong).\n- **▶️ Open Game** — Appears and becomes clickable once your game has been built successfully.\n- **📂 View Files** — Browse the files generated at each step.\n- **📡 Active Sessions** — Shows live progress for any AI tasks currently running.\n- **📜 Activity Log** — A running record of everything that\u0027s happened, useful if something goes wrong.\n\n---\n\n## 🤔 Frequently Asked Questions\n\n**Do I need to know how to code?**\nNot at all. Quiz Wiz handles all the technical work. You just describe what you want in plain English.\n\n**How long does each step take?**\nMost steps complete in under a minute. The Build step may take a little longer for complex quizzes.\n\n**Can I share my quiz with others?**\nYes! Once built, your quiz runs in any modern web browser. Use the **▶️ Open Game** link to play it, and share that\nlink with anyone you like.\n\n**What if a step fails?**\nCheck the **📜 Activity Log** for details. You can usually just try running the step again. If the problem persists,\ncheck the **📡 Active Sessions** panel for a monitor link to see exactly what happened.\n\n**Can I change the quiz topic completely?**\nYes — update your idea in Step ① and re-run the pipeline from Step ② onwards.\n\n**Will my changes in the Update step break anything?**\nQuiz Wiz is designed to apply only the changes you ask for, leaving everything else untouched. If something does break,\njust describe the issue in the Update box and run it again.\n\n---\n\n## ⚠️ Troubleshooting\n\n| Problem | What to do |\n|---------|-----------|\n| *\"Could not determine session from URL\"* | Make sure you\u0027re opening the app via its proper session link |\n| A step badge is stuck on `running` | Check the **📡 Active Sessions** panel and the **📜 Activity Log** |\n| The **▶️ Open Game** button isn\u0027t appearing | The Build step may not have finished — check the Activity Log and try again |\n| The quiz doesn\u0027t look right | Use the **⑦ Update / Refine** step to describe what needs fixing |\n| Models not loading | Check your internet connection and try refreshing the page |\n\n---\n\n*Quiz Wiz is part of the DocOps apps suite.*","category":"Create","tags":["Teach","Kids"],"hasBackground":true,"hasIcon":false,"backgroundUrl":"quiz-wiz/background.png"},{"id":"app-omega","name":"Omega App Factory","icon":"🔮","description":"Meta-application that designs and produces other DocOps applications from plain language descriptions.","badge":"Experimental","badgeClass":"accent","type":"docops","path":"/omega","appId":"omega","readme":"# Ω Omega — DocOps App Generator\n\nOmega is an AI-powered application generator built on the Cognotik DocOps platform.

Be specific about:\n\n- What the user provides as input\n- What processing steps should happen (brainstorming, research, analysis, code generation, etc.)\n- What the final outputs should be\n\n**Example:**\n```\nI want an app that takes a business idea and produces a complete pitch deck outline,\ncompetitive analysis (via web research), and a one-page executive summary.\n\nUser Input: A markdown file describing the business idea and target market\nDesired Output:\n  - Pitch deck outline (10-12 slides)\n  - Competitive landscape analysis\n  - One-page executive summary\n```\n\nClick **💾 Save Idea** to persist your description.\n\n---\n\n### 2. Configure Models (Optional)\n\nNavigate to the **🤖 Models** tab to select which AI models to use for generation:\n\n- **Smart Model** — Used for complex reasoning tasks (requirements analysis, pipeline generation, UI creation)\n- **Fast Model** — Used for simpler tasks (parsing, formatting, quick transformations)\n- **Image Model** — Used for image generation and processing\n\nClick **💾 Save Model Settings** to persist your selections across sessions.\n\n---\n\n### 3. Generate Your App\n\nNavigate to the **⚙️ Generate** tab. You can run each step individually or use **▶ Run Entire Generation Pipeline** to generate everything automatically.\n\n#### Step 1 — Generate Requirements\nAnalyzes your idea and produces a structured `requirements.md` document with inputs, pipeline steps, outputs, file naming conventions, and UI requirements.\n\n#### Step 2 — Generate Pipeline Ops\nCreates all pipeline operation files in `generated_app/ops/`, including JSON configs, starter templates, and a README. Uses a SubPlan to produce multiple files in one pass.\n\n#### Step 3 — Generate UI\nBuilds a complete single-page HTML/CSS/JS application in `generated_app/`, tailored to the generated pipeline.\n\nEach step shows a **status badge** (pending → running → done / error) and a **live session monitoring link** so you can watch the AI work in real time.\n\n---\n\n### 4. Iterate and Refine\n\nNavigate to the **🔄 Iterate** tab to refine the generated app based on your feedback.\n\n#### Pipeline Update Notes\nDescribe changes to the pipeline — new steps, bug fixes, modified prompts, removed steps. Click **▶ Update Pipeline** to apply changes.\n\n#### UI Update Notes\nDescribe changes to the UI — new tabs, bug fixes, layout changes, new viewers. Click **▶ Update UI** to apply changes.\n\nUse **▶ Run All Updates** to apply both pipeline and UI updates sequentially.\n\n---\n\n### 5. Browse Results\n\nNavigate to the **📁 Results** tab to inspect the generated files:\n\n| Sub-tab | Contents |\n|---|---|\n| 📄 README | The generated app\u0027s README |\n| 📋 Requirements | The structured requirements document |\n| ⚙️ Pipeline Ops | Browse and view all generated op files |\n| 🎨 UI Source | The generated `index.html` source |\n| 📂 All Files | Full file tree browser for `generated_app/` |\n\n---\n\n### 6.

If you need multi-perspective analysis, say so explicitly.\n- **Iterate freely.** The Update Pipeline and Update UI operations are designed for incremental refinement — use them often.\n- **Commit before major changes.** Use the Git tab to snapshot working versions before running updates.\n- **Monitor live sessions.** Click the 📡 Monitor links that appear while operations are running to watch the AI work in real time.\n\n---\n\n## Platform Requirements\n\nOmega runs on the Cognotik DocOps platform and requires:\n\n- At least one configured AI provider with API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)\n- Access to the `/docops`, `/apiProviders/`, and `/proxy/` endpoints\n- A valid authenticated session\n\nConfigure API providers in the platform settings before using Omega.","category":"Imagine","tags":["Devs"],"hasBackground":true,"hasIcon":false,"backgroundUrl":"omega/background.png"},{"id":"app-job-hunter","name":"AI Job Hunter","icon":"🔍","description":"Automated job search pipeline that finds, researches, and applies for jobs matching your profile.","badgeClass":"","type":"docops","path":"/job-hunter","appId":"job-hunter","readme":"# 🎯 AI Job Hunter\n\n**Let AI do the job hunting for you.** AI Job Hunter automates the tedious parts of your job search — finding opportunities, researching companies, and crafting tailored applications — so you can focus on what matters: landing the right role.\n\n---\n\n## What Does It Do?\n\nAI Job Hunter runs a smart, multi-step pipeline that works on your behalf:\n\n1. **🌐 Searches the Web** — Scours the internet for job postings that match your resume and preferences\n2. **📋 Organizes Matches** — Extracts and neatly organizes every opportunity it finds\n3. **🏢 Researches Companies** — Digs into each company\u0027s background so you know who you\u0027re applying to\n4. **📝 Writes Applications** — Generates tailored cover letters and application materials for each role\n\n---\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### 1. Configure Your AI Models\n\nAt the top of the app, choose which AI models to use:\n\n- **Smart Model** — Used for deep analysis and writing (pick a powerful model here)\n- **Fast Model** — Used for high-volume processing tasks (a faster, lighter model works great)\n- **Image Model** — Optional; only needed if you want to process visual content\n\nHit **💾 Save Configuration** when you\u0027re done.\n\n### 2.

One company name per line.\n\n---\n\n## Running the Pipeline\n\n### Step 1 — Start the Job Search\n\nClick **🌐 Start Job Search**. The AI will crawl the web looking for roles that match your profile. This may take a few minutes. You\u0027ll see a live progress indicator, and when it\u0027s done the next step will unlock automatically.\n\n### Step 2 — Copy Job Matches\n\nOnce the search completes, the app will automatically extract and organize the results. You can also trigger this manually with **📋 Copy Job Matches**.\n\n---\n\n## Viewing Your Results\n\nSwitch between tabs in the **Results** section:\n\n- **Job Matches** — Browse all found opportunities, grouped by company. You can:\n  - Sort by **alphabetical order**, **match score ⭐**, or **estimated salary 💰**\n  - Expand/collapse company groups to keep things tidy\n  - Click **📄 View Details** to read the full job posting\n  - Click **🏢 Research Company** to kick off an AI-powered background check on any employer\n  - Click **🏢 View Research** once a company report is ready\n\n- **Applications** — View and download any generated application materials\n\n- **Logs** — See a running log of everything the pipeline has done\n\n---\n\n## Crawler Settings\n\nWant more control? The **🕷️ Crawler Settings** section lets you tune how the AI searches the web:\n\n- **Job Search** settings control how broadly and deeply the job search crawls\n- **Company Research** settings control how thoroughly each company is investigated\n\nHigher values mean more thorough results, but searches will take longer and use more AI credits. The defaults are a good starting point for most users.\n\n---\n\n## Handy Tools\n\nIn the top-right corner of the app you\u0027ll find three useful buttons:\n\n| Button | What it does |\n|--------|-------------|\n| 💰 | **Usage \u0026 Costs** — See how many AI tokens have been used and the estimated cost |\n| 🗂️ | **Git Status** — Save a snapshot of your work with version control |\n| ❓ | **Help** — Quick reference guide |\n\n---\n\n## Tips for Best Results\n\n- **Be specific in your requirements** — vague requirements lead to vague matches\n- **Review results between steps** — you can refine and re-run any step at any time\n- **Use \"Companies to Avoid\"** to prevent seeing the same companies repeatedly across multiple searches\n- **Commit your work regularly** using the 🗂️ Git button — this keeps a history of your search sessions\n- **Keep an eye on costs** with the 💰 button if you\u0027re working within a budget\n\n---\n\n## How It Works (Behind the Scenes)\n\nFor the curious, here\u0027s the pipeline at a glance:\n\n```\nWeb Search → Organize Matches → Research Companies → Generate Applications\n```\n\nEach step feeds into the next, and you can monitor or re-run any step independently.

The pipeline will automatically:\n\n- Generate a broad set of career path ideas\n- Review your professional materials from multiple expert perspectives\n- Produce a first round of clarifying questions\n\n### Step 3 — Answer the Questions\n\nWhen Round 1 questions are ready, an **Answer** button will appear.

Paste in a job description, add some notes about the company, and let the AI do the heavy lifting. In minutes you\u0027ll have a polished, targeted resume (and cover letter!) ready to download as a professional PDF.\n\n---\n\n## What It Does\n\nMost job seekers send the same generic resume to every application. Hiring managers notice. The Resume Customizer solves this by:\n\n- **Highlighting what matters most** — Automatically emphasizes the skills, experience, and achievements most relevant to the role you\u0027re applying for\n- **Matching the company\u0027s language** — Aligns your resume\u0027s tone and terminology with the company\u0027s values, culture, and tech stack\n- **Generating a tailored cover letter** — Creates a personalized cover letter to accompany your resume\n- **Producing beautiful PDFs** — Renders your customized content into professionally designed PDF documents, ready to send\n\n---\n\n## How to Use It\n\n### Step 1 — Add Your Information\n\nAt the top of the page, fill in three fields:\n\n- **Job Description** — Paste the full job posting text\n- **Company Information** — Add any research you\u0027ve done: the company\u0027s mission, values, tech stack, team culture, etc. The more context you provide, the better the AI can tailor your resume\n- **Cover Letter Notes** — Optionally jot down key points, tone preferences, or a rough draft to guide the cover letter\n\nClick **Save** on each field when you\u0027re done.\n\n### Step 2 — Load Your Master Resume\n\nYour \"master resume\" is the complete record of everything you\u0027ve ever done — every job, skill, and project. The AI selects the most relevant pieces for each application.\n\n- Click **Reload** to load a previously saved resume\n- Click **Edit JSON** to paste or edit your resume directly in the browser\n- Click **Upload JSON** to upload a resume file from your computer\n\n### Step 3 — Choose Your AI Models\n\nSelect which AI models to use for the smart analysis tasks and the faster utility tasks. Your selections are saved automatically for next time.\n\n### Step 4 — Pick a Resume Style\n\nChoose the visual style for your output documents. Different styles suit different industries and personal preferences — you can switch between them at any time without losing your work.\n\n### Step 5 — Run the Pipeline\n\nThe pipeline has three steps you can run independently or in sequence:\n\n1. **Customize Resume** — The AI reads your master resume, the job description, and the company notes, then produces a tailored resume JSON\n2. **Render \u0026 Build** — Converts the tailored resume into a beautifully formatted PDF in your chosen style\n3. **Generate Cover Letter** — Writes and renders a matching cover letter PDF\n\nClick the **▶ Run** button for each step. A live progress log appears below the pipeline so you can see exactly what\u0027s happening.\n\n### Step 6 — Review \u0026 Refine\n\nOnce the pipeline completes, use the tabs in the **Generated Resume** section to:\n\n- **JSON** — View and edit the raw resume data\n- **Preview** — See the rendered PDF directly in the browser\n- **Cover Letter** — Preview the cover letter PDF\n- **Downloads** — Download or open the final PDF and source files\n\nNot quite right? Use the **Refinement Feedback** section to give the AI specific instructions (\"emphasize leadership experience\", \"shorten the summary\", \"use a more formal tone\") and click **Refine Selected Style \u0026 Rebuild** to generate an improved version.
