I'm an engineer at Stripe, building AI tools on the side.

Right now I'm working on:
→ Cognato AI: Version control + audit layer for AI agents

Here's what I'm actually building and why I'm sharing it publicly.

@taasshiii In dire need!

[harsh @__harsh020__]

@taasshiii IKR! Nights and weekends, I sit to brainstorm and think, but it's mostly alone T-T

[harsh @__harsh020__]

@dishafaujdar Happens to me to but then I doze off 1 hour before I need to wake up T-T

Are you still paying for a dictation tool on Mac?

We're building OpenVoice -- a local-first, open-source dictation tool that runs entirely on your machine. No cloud, no subscription, no audio leaving your Mac.

What it does:
🎙️ Fast, accurate dictation anywhere you type
✨ On-device AI cleanup -- kills the "um"s and false starts, fixes punctuation
📧 Modes that reshape speech into a message, email, or notes on the fly
⚡ Command mode -- just say what you want written
🔒 100% private. Everything runs locally, including the LLM
🧩 Bring your own model -- pick any small LLM from HuggingFace

No account. No API keys. No monthly bill. Just talk.

⭐ Open source & free → https://t.co/dN3QaUiBKm

Excited to share that I'm joining the @boardyai Pro Advisory Board! I'm working closely with Boardy and his team to shape the future of Boardy Pro.

To celebrate, Boardy has given me 5 invites to share with my network for 1 year of free access to Boardy Pro.

Comment "BOARDY PRO" if you want an invite to Boardy Pro to experience for yourself what the hype is all about.

No matter how much you love software engineering, it always sucks when someone micromanages you, especially when you are in a project you don't enjoy working on

[harsh @__harsh020__]

TBH, I don't understand why they are getting criticized so much. There are many more before them who've built such products.

I know such a product will create turmoil, but everyone is allowed to build, talk about their product, and validate it. If people start responding with such criticism, it would be difficult for people to experiment. Given that AI has accelerated development, "build fast, fail fast" has never been easier.

I believe people should not be hesitant to share what they are building, and criticism is good, but not at the cost of discouraging someone.

Just shipped https://t.co/tt58bDG0j7 with @edvardh1

it applies to jobs for you:

- every opening in one feed (32k+ and counting)
- auto-applies to 100+ jobs in minutes
- writes each screening answer to match the role
- remembers your whole profile so you never fill the same form twice (powered by @supermemory)
- set it up once, it does the rest.

try it free and make applying way less painful.

Demo soon…

Don't pay for Mac dictation. We just released v0.0.1 for OpenVoice -- an open-source, local-first dictation, enhancement, and command-following tool.

Imagine spending years becoming really good at building things… and then realizing most of your time goes into a job you don’t actually want to keep doing.

I just want to build.
But the job keeps pulling me back.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m choosing this path because I want it, or because I’ve gotten good at staying in the system.

@AbhinavXJ Even I don't understand. I am building a complete free and open-source alternative to help understand it.
