Local Gator

Local Gator

Local Gator is a travel research concierge that helps you plan faster without living in 20 browser tabs. You tell it where you’re going, when, who’s in the group, your budget, and the vibe you want. Then it turns those constraints into a tailored shortlist of things to do, eat, and see—each with a quick “why this fits” and links to learn more. Built for real trips (kids, elders, tight budgets, accessibility needs, limited time), it keeps recommendations grounded in your reality. No affiliated recommendations, just high-signal options you can trust and decide on quickly.

How Does It Work?

Trip planning usually turns into a messy loop: search → reviews → maps → budget math → “wait, is this even open?” Generic lists don’t match your group, your pace, or your time window—so you end up doing the hard part yourself anyway. Local Guide removes that friction by interviewing you first, then curating options that actually fit your trip, so you can stop scrolling and start deciding.

Start with /start (or just ask for help) and it runs a quick two-pass intake: destination, dates, group ages, budget, interests, lodging area, transit, must-dos, must-avoids, and constraints. Then it researches what’s relevant for that place and time, and builds a mini report with dynamic categories that match your vibe. Each pick comes with 2–3 tailored sentences, at least one official link when possible, and compact practical notes (cost, time needed, booking, accessibility caveats). It ends with a few quick questions so you can refine—or turn the shortlist into a day-by-day plan.

Step by Step Process:

  • Type /start (or share your trip request in one message)

  • Drop your basics: destination + dates/length

  • Share group size + age ranges (adults/kids/seniors)

  • Add budget + currency, plus your top 3 interests

  • Include logistics: hotel area (if known), walking/transit/car, and any constraints

  • Review your tailored mini report (categories + picks + links)

  • Answer 2–4 refinement questions to narrow options or build an itinerary

Best for:

  • People who want a curated shortlist, not a hundred “Top 10” lists

  • Groups with mixed needs (kids, elders, accessibility, dietary constraints)

  • Trips where you need to optimize for budget, convenience, or wow factor

You’ll get:

  • A Trip Snapshot that confirms your constraints (and flags assumptions)

  • A scannable Best-Fit Summary plus dynamic categories of recommendations

  • Links to validate details fast (official pages when available)

Guardrails:

  • No silent guessing: unclear details become questions or explicit assumptions

  • No fake certainty: pricing/hours/availability can change—links are the source of truth

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are some Assistants free while others are paid?

Paid assistants reflect deeper development time, specialized frameworks, and ongoing maintenance to deliver consistent outputs. Free assistants are offered to expand access and help more people use AI in practical, human-centered ways. Pricing helps us sustain continued improvement and support.

Do I receive the system prompt or internal instructions when I purchase an Assistant?

No, your purchase provides access to the Assistant experience, not the underlying system prompt or internal build materials. Those internal instructions are part of our intellectual property. We may provide usage guides or best-practice instructions to help you get strong results.

Do Fourth Gen Assistants get updated over time?

Yes, we refine assistants as tools and best practices evolve, so outputs may change over time. If an update would substantially change the assistant’s structure or purpose, we may release a new version instead of overwriting the original.

Is what I share with an Assistant private?

Your chats occur within OpenAI’s ChatGPT platform and are governed by OpenAI’s terms and privacy controls. OpenAI provides settings that allow you to manage whether your conversations are used to improve their models.

If an Assistant is removed from the Fourth Gen Labs website, will I still have access?

If you already added the Assistant to your ChatGPT account, you may still be able to access it there even if it is removed from our website. Availability ultimately depends on OpenAI’s platform and your account status, and we cannot guarantee continued availability if OpenAI changes or retires features.

Do I need a ChatGPT account to use Fourth Gen Assistants?

Yes, these assistants run through OpenAI’s ChatGPT platform, so you must have a ChatGPT account to access them. Access requirements and availability may vary based on OpenAI’s current policies and product tiers.
