ChatGPT is an extraordinary general-purpose AI and the right tool for most tasks. But when you need someone to tell you the truth about your business idea, your CV, or your website — ChatGPT's training to be agreeable works against you. Brutally.ai was built for exactly this use case: giving you the honest, structured, actionable feedback that ChatGPT is specifically designed not to give. Use both. Use ChatGPT for everything else. Use Brutally.ai when the stakes are high and you need the truth.
Try Brutally.ai free — no credit card required. Get your first honest evaluation in under 60 seconds.
Not overall — ChatGPT is a more capable general-purpose AI. But for honest, critical feedback on your ideas, CV, or website, Brutally.ai is purpose-built to do what ChatGPT is specifically trained not to do: tell you the unfiltered truth.
ChatGPT is trained using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), which optimises for responses that humans rate positively. Humans tend to rate agreeable, validating responses more highly — so the model learns to be agreeable. This is a well-documented phenomenon called AI sycophancy.
Absolutely — and we recommend it. Use ChatGPT for general tasks, writing, coding, and research. Use Brutally.ai when you need honest feedback on a specific idea, decision, CV, or website.

Brutally.ai uses large language models with a specifically engineered system prompt designed to enforce honest, critical, structured feedback. The key difference is not the underlying model — it's the instructions and the data sources (like live website scanning) that make the output genuinely useful.
