If so, what apps do yall use, and what is the number one feature you wish was there, or what s the most annoying pain point when using these dictation apps? Appreciate any feedback, and I m considering giving people lifetime access to my app if they contribute their ideas, guys let s work together to make the best local dictation app out there.

It's been some time since we launched Tyto (getting #15 on PH!). Now we would like to hear from you - did you get a chance to try it yourself already? If not, what was the blocker, how can we help you to get there, what are you missing?
Let us know!

Additionally, I've compiled here the list of top currently available resources on Tyto and ai-coustics SDK to help you get started.

• Tyto documentation

• Launch blog with samples

• Post-call analysis tutorial

• Live demo app

SoundCloud went live 18 years ago as a launchpad for independent artists to share their music. Now, it s adding more tools for listeners to share what they re into.

The music streaming app, which ranks above streaming stalwarts Pandora and Apple Music in terms of monthly average users, introduced new social features on Thursday, including:

I'm looking for tools to help me brief clients and get their answers in voice format. Recently, I found @Yapz It really impressed me. Simple to use, the delightful format of briefing people, only a positive experience. The only downside is that I cannot see the whole call transcript, which is crucial for me. Are there any free/cheap AI alternatives that makes summaries of answers and saves transcripts at the same time?

I thought I wanted to start a podcast with my friends, turns out I just wanted to use the format to stay in touch.
I travel quite a bit so I have friends in many timezones. Some of us attempted to start a podcast by each recording an audio clips and stitching them together into an episode. We quickly realized we didn't want the discussions to be fully public, however, the format of communicating through these audio podcast-like messages was a game changer.
This is what lead to the development of Roads Audio.
So have you ever wanted to start a podcast? What was that experience like?

I have made a list of platforms where you can create your community and share your knowledge in a closed circle (and in some cases sell memberships).

The list is according to my preferences, so the platforms I use the most are at the top.

I was recently talking with a group of founders, and we went around sharing tools we're using now. Posting my notes for our community here - would love to know what else people are using!

Voice AI toolkit:

- Vapi

If you had to make image or video with sound to publish what tools would you use? What type of content do you (or would you) produce with those tools?

Some tools I'm thinking of are

• @Sora by OpenAI for video

• @Suno.ai for music gen

• @ChatGPT by OpenAI for image gen

• and maybe something like @ReelFarm for UCG-esque automated content.

@rrhoover 's comment on @kwindla 's "Happy Birthday, Photoshop" thread got me thinking:
"I wish Product Hunt was around longer so we had more nerdy, tech archeology to explore."
The products that made an impression on us, even if they didn't make it, often inspire the next generation of apps. Also, there's something interesting about a product that you resonated with and you thought should have been huge but didn't quite make it. It's an opportunity for reflection on maybe what was missing or how your values may differ from the world or how that product may have been a glimpse of the future and ahead of its time. I subscribe to the idea that most startup ideas will happen eventually, but timing matters. You need to see into the future, but if you see too far into the future, it may take a while for that to become reality.
For me, there are lots of contenders in the consumer social space. I really loved @Clubhouse, especially in the early days of the pandemic. I thought @Airchat had a fascinating interface (twitter...but audio?). I also thought the authenticity and light attention requirements of @BeReal. was compelling. But maybe my favorite more niche product is @Honk by Benji Taylor.
Honk was real-time messaging, one-on-one, without a log. You could see people typing in realtime. You could spam emojis, and your swarm of emojis would battle comically with your friend's swarm. It was silly, and beautifully designed, and a valiant effort at breaking through our cultural tendency to regress to boring async chat.
There's also something really cool about seeing somebody type in real time. It's like seeing them think! One magic moment is when you start typing and before you can finish the idea, the other person's understood the idea and is responding. It's a funny feeling.
Plus their Twitter account was genius. It would often just tweet "Honk"
What's your favorite social app that doesn't exist anymore? What did you take away from it?
@rrhoover I'm guessing you have too many to count. @bernatfortet @kwindla @gabe

1. Lenny's Podcast
2. My First Millions
3. Lex Fridman (this is more generic but tech founders related episodes are good one)
I would love to explore more (like this) which is more about practical/actionable advice and relevant for digital products. What do you listen?
