I like to put my prompts through Goose before I dump into #ShakespeareDIY...

Goose? I have a big idea I'll be putting to Shakespeare very soon, just working on the prompt in the hopes I can do the whole thing with a single prompt 😂

I have my Goose set up with gemini 2.5 flash so I use it for ChatGPT-esque things rather than ChatGPT or Claude. I like to put my prompts through an AI assistant first, like, "desribe the front end of an MVP that clones duo lingo." Since I'm not a dev, it helps me frame my prompts in a way the AI will give me better results. Better...maybe not best. sometimes it still takes work.

But what is Goose? Interesting thing! Also, is it possible for Shakespeare to provide a cost estimate before executing? I imagine my idea will be $100+ just based on what I spent to make the basis of Betstr and unsure I can spend $100 at the moment...

Re: #ShakespeareDIY, I would love this feature. When I use it, it's doing about $0.24 per task it performs, or ~$3 per prompt...In a perfect situation.

Simple, short prompts are around $4. If you're a no-code novice and just there to play, which is how I started with it, you won't spend much. My first apps were pretty cheap, the most expensive one cost $27.

If you're diving deeper, continuing to prompt it, you will rack up the $$$$

You can try messing around with prompt ideas in the free Gemini Flash Playground first to refine the idea (and see what it's able to do). I do that sometimes too. Only because I find often that the first iteration of something comes out and THEN I realize what I should have asked it to do.
