Looking to create merch directly from your chatbot?

With Fourthwall's new integration with ChatGPT, you can go from an idea to a real, orderable product and a live storefront without leaving the chat.

With this feature, you can type in what you want, get a design, and turn it into a listing-all in the same conversation. 

No more bouncing between design tools, print vendors, and a separate storefront; Fourthwall handles the manufacturing, shipping, support, and tax so you can focus on the idea.

How to Download the Fourthwall App on ChatGPT

To begin, log in to your ChatGPT account and go to Plugins located on your sidebar. Then, look for the Fourthwall app in the search bar, and click it to install.

Choosing the Fourthwall app under the Plugins category in ChatGPT.

You'll then be asked to sign into your Fourthwall account, where your store can be connected to ChatGPT.

Install plugin button appears on Fourthwall app.

Once your store is synced, you'll see Fourthwall embedded in your chat, allowing you to start a new prompt for your product or store.

How the Fourthwall App Works

1. Create a Prompt

In your work chat, start a prompt by describing what you want to create. 

For example, you can say, "Create a T-shirt with my artwork," "Turn this design into merch," or "Start an online store for my YouTube channel."

For this demonstration, we'll say "Create a T-shirt with my artwork."

Typing in "Create a T-shirt with my artwork" in Chat box.

2. Design Product in Chat

Next, Chat will ask you to upload your artwork from your Fourthwall media library. 

Choose the design you want for your product and click Use selected image. Make sure the image is high-resolution with a transparent background for premium quality.

Fourthwall media library pops up in chat and asks you to select an image.

Now that your design is selected, it's time to choose your product. Chat will provide a few recommendations from Fourthwall's catalog based on the item you want to create. 

Make sure you specify your product's color along with your design placement. If you don't put anything down, Chat will place your artwork in the center for you.

Once you choose your shirt, Chat will generate a preview of your product design.

A mockup design of your product will appear before you decided to publish.

3. Create Product Listing

If you’re happy with the final result, the app will ask if you want to create a product listing for it on your store, along with suggested pricing.

You can hop on over to your Fourthwall dashboard, take a look at the listing, and edit any copy or pricing before you publish the product onto your store.

Note: An "order now" flow adds the item to your cart instantly, and Fourthwall makes it on demand once the order comes in. Chat will also ask if you want to order any samples at manufacturer cost. 

The Best AI Plugin to Create Your Merch

With this Fourthwall x ChatGPT, you don't need to download design software, chase down a print vendor, or figure out shipping and tax on your own.

Now, all you have to do is generate a prompt, and you'll be able to design a product right where your idea started. 

That means the moment you think, "my fans would love this," you can act on it immediately rather than shelve it until you have time to handle the logistics. 

There's no inventory to buy, no fulfillment to manage, and no customer service line to staff yourself. Fourthwall handles the business side, so you can stay focused on your audience and your brand instead of becoming a supply chain expert. 

For Creators, that's the real unlock: merch stops being a project and starts being a prompt.
