I left the film industry to make creators sound like themselves

by

Hey Product Hunt — I'm Steven Hacker (yes, that's actually my last name).

I came out of the film industry, where the whole job is making a voice feel real — getting a character to sound like a person, not like someone reading lines. You spend years obsessing over what makes speech feel authentic versus fake.

That obsession is what pulled me into building MePersona. Creators today are drowning in fan messages across a dozen platforms, and the "AI reply" tools that promise to help all have the same flaw — the fan can tell it wasn't really them. Coming from film, that gap is the only thing I care about: a reply that doesn't sound like you is worse than no reply at all.

So I'm building the tool I think should exist — one that learns how a creator actually talks and drafts in that voice, everywhere they get messages.

Still early and building in public. Curious to meet other founders here who came into tech from somewhere unexpected — where'd you cross over from?
