Overview:

I made a Tines automation app, “Mind Maker”, that is fully self-contained in Tines and helps provide a decision for you to “make up your mind”. You can ask between choices or general questions using AI (optional, with AI/credits enabled) responses for best experience, but also has a non AI component by prompting choices as comma separated values. This is supposed to be a fun app that helps you decide on common low stake dilemmas like “Should I eat at ‘X’ or ‘Y’ ” choices. Input validation on the non AI input is very low/none. Moderate input validation on AI responses. Without AI, This app does not require anything else to use, and works “out of the box”. Using AI requires AI enabled and sufficient credits available on the Tines tenant it’s hosted on (this uses base AI model for credit usage). This Tines app can easily be imported into any Tines story/tenant via an exported JSON file.

Some concepts you will need to be familiar with to create this story yourself:

  • JSON formatting as well as interacting with JSON content
  • Array manipulation
  • Random choices
  • AI Prompting (optional)
  • Minor string content formatting (optional for preference readability)

Guide:

[Intro]

This video doesn’t really have a guide for setup. It is more of an overview of what the app does, and basic overview of how the Tines story is setup and behaves, as the video was mainly created to demonstrate the app for the “You Did What?! With Tines” Spring 2025 entry.

This is also a little demonstration of what is possible to do in Tines, with little/no code involved in.

I may add a video transcript or tutorial guide here in the future.
