My accent is not that hard to understand. I think. @tankots

I wrote this using Wispr.

Feedback below:

My biggest beef is mostly with the app on the phone, which I use almost as much as I use the desktop app. Switching windows is pretty tough, going from one app back to the other app. Sometimes when I'm in the process of sending a document to someone from my photo roll or from files, Apple just goes ahead and exits that screen. When I come back from Wispr, it's gone.

Another thing that would be nice is, even though I'm mostly speaking, instead of having to switch keyboards, if the Wispr keyboard had letters, it'd be a lot easier to fix specific words or letters that get messed up. And if I could use the space bar to actually navigate my paragraphs like I can with the native keyboard, that would be huge.

Calling all haters of @WisprFlow - give me your biggest issue with Wispr.

Yes I will personally read through each and every comment and have our team right some wrongs.

[Ben @bbjzoom]

@TylerGLinq @brian_armstrong @ycombinator @thelinqapp That’s the key^ 🔑

The future

[Elliott Potter @elliott__potter]

The future of all software is conversational.

Assistant apps like these 9 (8 of which are built on Linq) are paving the way, but soon, all categories of software will look very similar to these.

You’ll text your CRM. Text your bank. Text your insurance company and a patient, competent agent actually answers. The thread becomes the interface.

We give agents phones to make this future possible.

So proud of @thelinqapp team and what we’ve built here. I’m also excited about our competition as we race to build the best possible version of this future.

@venturetwins The future is very bright.

[Ben @bbjzoom]

@heysaik @venturetwins @patsullyyy @poppysimplified @venturetwins this one is great

[Elliott Potter @elliott__potter]

@venturetwins @venturetwins 8 of 9 are happy @thelinqapp customers and the remaining one is porting over 📈📈📈

[Ben @bbjzoom]
