You ever feel like AI is supposed to make your life easier, but instead, you’re stuck figuring out why your GPT-powered text campaigns aren’t delivering and your automation just broke again?
Yeah — welcome to the club. 👋
The truth is, AI inside HighLevel is incredible — when it works. But when it doesn’t? It’s like trying to ride a rocket with the user manual in another language.
Thankfully, my buddy Mario Aldayuz (Head of Partnerships at HL Pro Tools) jumped on a recent Zoom session and dropped serious knowledge on how to actually troubleshoot some of the biggest AI issues inside HighLevel.
Here’s a breakdown of the good stuff you missed — and how to get your AI game back on track:
Problem #1: “My AI Tool Feels Kinda Dumb”
One of the first issues someone brought up was around TypingMind — a GPT wrapper that’s decent, but…
👉 It can’t pull live data.
So if you’re trying to use it for up-to-date info like event times, stock levels, weather, or current deals — you’re out of luck.
🛠️ Mario’s fix? TextCortex. It plugs into live internet data, has solid contextual memory, and works way better for dynamic campaigns.
💡 Pro Tip: If your AI sounds like it’s stuck in 2022, it probably is. Switch to something that lives in the now.
Problem #2: “My SMS Campaigns Are Getting Ghosted”
Next up — and this one hurts — your AI-generated SMS messages aren’t getting delivered.
Turns out, AI can write the perfect message… and still never reach your lead. Why? Deliverability + compliance.
Mario broke down how A2P (Application-to-Person) regulations can kill your outreach if you’re not set up correctly.
⚡ The fix? MyCRMSim. It helps make sure your messages stay compliant and actually land in people’s inboxes.
🔥 Bonus: Pair this with GPT actions in HighLevel and you’ve got personalized, compliant, conversion-worthy outreach.
Problem #3: “Cold Email Feels… Meh”
Cold email isn’t dead — it’s just evolved. But most people are still sending boring, templated messages that get ignored.
Mario hinted at an upcoming AI + cold email training, and I’m telling you now — don’t miss this one.
Because when you combine:
✅ Smart GPT prompts
✅ Personalization at scale
✅ Deliverability best practices
…you get cold emails that actually get opened, replied to, and booked.
Stay close — we’ll drop updates at hlprotools.com.
The Secret Sauce? Experiment Like Crazy.
One thing I always say (and Mario echoed it):
You don’t need to launch a massive campaign to test AI. Start small.
Test one message.
Try one trigger.
Run one segment.
Then scale what works.
That’s how you avoid burning money AND build smart, effective systems that don’t crash when it matters most.
Final Takeaway?
If AI feels overwhelming — I get it.
But you don’t have to figure this out alone.
At hlprotools.com, we’re building tools, workflows, and trainings specifically for HighLevel users who want to win with automation.
Come grab what you need — and steal some stuff while you’re at it. 😉
