Today I'm launching @TryYaps on Android - a voice-first keyboard I've been rebuilding from the ground up!

Ships with everything you'd expect from a modern keyboard - swipe typing, smart suggestions, autocorrect, emoji, GIFs, multi-language, light/dark themes, the whole familiar toolkit. If you're coming from Gboard, nothing to relearn.
But the reason it exists is one shortcut away. Dictation that's genuinely 4× faster than typing.

It also comes with some robust note taking features. A reading mode that narrates any text aloud. It also cleans up rambling drafts into something send-ready. Every one of those running on-device - no cloud, no listening, no account needed to get started.

I kept wondering why no one had just built voice INTO the keyboard itself. The answer is simple, it's tough to do well 😅.

Either way I built it, and will keep improving it. Feels a bit unreal to be shipping a full-stack keyboard as one person but it was fun and a necessary first step for a much broader suite of tools.

If you've ever want to just yap the thing instead of typing it out - link in the comments.

@LLMJunky @therno You learn something new every day. I definitely thought it was a gimmick until just now.

[R. @RichDoesTech]

@therno @LLMJunky Wait, you guys are actually using the pet? Why?

[R. @RichDoesTech]

@thsottiaux How will you select them? You watching their creations or you just monitoring X in general?

[R. @RichDoesTech]

@jxnlco I didn't join openai but same story lol

[R. @RichDoesTech]

@LLMJunky Saw this and felt the same

@signulll I built https://t.co/3zbsCeZTg9, website is as creative as it gets

[R. @RichDoesTech]

11% left across 5 days and hoping @thsottiaux works his magic

Ramping up marketing, videos, socials, Reddit, driving traffic, espcially since the android product is very mature now, the desktop app is being hardended, windows is coming soon and iOS shortly after.

@rozzabuilds $100 on each. Bump up to max depending on the month and what I'm in need of more.

@yacineMTB Surely this was one intern? 😂

@GergelyOrosz @damoosmann loool it was soooo off topic too

@Potrock_ There's always gonna be AI hand holders, but they may not be enough room for all of us 😅

[R. @RichDoesTech]

Interesting thread, soon this stuff will be weird to read when we're all obsolete and doing brick and mortar work. 😅

Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.

It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx

@LibekFi @thsottiaux Lol ik, but you can't blame me for trying. Sometimes Tibo does when he's feeling generous haha
