@chrismessina It’s Nextel meets social media … in the best way possible
Have tried this out over the weekend, I have some thoughts:
- feels like early clubhouse days
- it's very smooth, at times it feels even more polished than big social apps like twitter
- transcription was a bit buggy at the start (I have an accent) but it seemingly adapted
- heard a lot of people say it will replace podcasts — I don't think so
- I wish the audio would stop playing when I leave the app
- if this gets PMF I can see twitter quickly whipping up a competitor and using their existing audience to lead the space.
- groups: i think groups will be huge for Airchat and they should be prioritised.
- memeposting is not as funny in voice form
@rrhoover Whisper is really accurate and quick. Are they not using Whisper for Airchat? I can't join to try because they've paused invites

@rrhoover I really enjoy it - feels social in a way that's more about an appeal to your ideas in the moment over what authority has been generally granted to you by position and/or follower count.
@rrhoover accurate is the hard part here. It’s accurate enough but if you’re taking about anything technical or even using proper names of things in the convo already it tends to get them wrong. The good thing is there are a bunch of ways to fix this that I’m sure they’ll get to eventually

@rrhoover It feels fresh. I think there will be a lot more trust building because you can hear the person's actual voice. Also feels much more mellow than X right now.
@rrhoover It's unique. A keyboardless experience hasn't ever been so prominent before. The audio and transcription quality is pretty cool. Some background noise cancellation would be nice, though.
The coolest part is the quality of people and how reachable most of them seem and (kinda) are.

Sounds great! I had an idea for something like this about 20 years ago while smoking the 'erb and playing Trivial Pursuit =D Seems daft posting it up here when you can't access it....Is there somewhere or some way to get an invite code please? Thanks in advance >>>

Voice is biometric data. An app like this must be open source and built on a decentralized protocol like atproto.com or nostr.

I applaud the team for making a unique voice app.
However, the navigation between conversations and hearing randomness feels like a ton of chaos.
This would be a GREAT app for podcasts to pull out the best nuggets. Seems like a better use case 🎙️ 🔥
@derkolstad I like the concept but this is one the big issues. Very hard to navigate interesting convos and sometimes (many times in my feed) the ones you see and want to participate in are stuck behind a closed group

Airchat turns social media into a conversation. It's crazy how big of a difference hearing the voice behind the chit makes. It feels as though you're in the same room.
There's some really interesting things going on as people experiment with treating the platform as 'posts' to be thought about and recorded vs. conversations with natural imperfections.
From a design perspective, the haptics are delightful and it feels so polished. It's a small team and they are working to push out features and fixes so quickly.
Congrats to @naval, @briannorgard, & Sigil.
