Use ChatGPT for brainstorming; use Repli for a structured review

A general assistant is good at open questions: “give me ten hook ideas about meal prep”. It only knows what you paste in, so it can’t see your past Reel results unless you copy them over.

Repli runs the same review every time: it transcribes the Reel, scores seven areas, lists timestamped fixes, rewrites the hook, caption and CTA, and keeps a history of reports. With a connected account it adds your own Reel insights automatically.

A practical routine: brainstorm with ChatGPT, film, then run the cut through Repli before posting.
