I signed up for the $20/month USD Plus subscription. That took me to the ChatGPT page, and I clicked on Explore GPTs.

I was interested in the writing-oriented plugins. Here are the plugins highlighted as oriented for writing:

I had read about the Story plugin, but could not find it.
After a search, I discovered that I had to use ChatGPT 4, and the URL for that is
chat.openai.com/?model=gpt-4-plugins
.
This is what that page looked like:

I pressed the No plugins installed button and saw:

After clicking OK, I saw:

Typing Story
into the search box showed:

Clicking on Next > showed:

I did not find the Story plugin, so I tried searching with other keywords.
“Write
” yielded many hits:

I still did not find the Story plugin.
I decided to try AskYourPDF, ChatwithPDF, Ai PDF and PDF Reader.
Searching for PDF
yielded dozens of plugins.
AskYourPDF
https://askyourpdf.com/ installed without any dialogs.

ChatWithPDF
ChatWithPDF displayed the following unexpected login screen. Not a good user experience.

Navigating to chatwithpdf.ai
and clicking the Premium button showed:

Ai PDF
Ai PDF did not identify the parties involved.
Clicking on sdan.io
brought me to surya.link
, which was also anonymous.
Anonymous software vendors are definitely a security risk.
They are gathering a lot of links.

PDF Reader
PDF Reader also gave me a horrible user experience. Clicking on the button displayed:

Navigating to maila.ai
displayed:
