Sway is for people who think better by talking than typing. Just speak your thoughts naturally. While walking, thinking, or reflecting. Sway listens and turns what you say into clear summaries, key points, and actions. No prompts. No formatting. Just speak -> clarity.
Tested the product. Sorry to say, its terrible.
Dint pick my voice at all nor did it get my spoken words right. Rather it assumed some random statements and showed it. This way too far away from the likes of wisprflow TBH.
Infact, the entire product could be a simple feature in any AI apps like GPT. They could possibly build this over a coffee (maybe its not too imp in their journey, but GPT gets voice input almost 80% right)
Was hoping for something that beats wispr, but NOPE.

@mithun3 Hey, thanks for taking the time to test it and for being this direct. I genuinely appreciate the honesty. That definitely doesn’t sound like the experience we’re aiming for, especially around voice pickup and accuracy. Sway is still early, and there are edge cases (mic setup, environment, language, accent, device) where things can break more than they should. If you’re open to it, I’d really like to understand what device / browser / environment you were using. This kind of feedback helps us a lot to track down issues we might be missing.
Totally fair to compare it to tools like Wispr or GPT, different approaches, different tradeoffs. We’re focused less on raw transcription and more on capturing MEANING, but none of that matters if the basics fail.
Appreciate you calling it out.
Simplified interface looks cool, but what's the main difference with sending a voice note to ChatGPT with request to get it structured?
Sway
@vasilbo Great question actually. You can send a voice note to ChatGPT and for many cases that works.
The difference with Sway is that it’s built specifically for thinking out loud. No prompts, no chat back and forth, no instruction layer. You just speak.
It automatically structures into summary, key points, and actions consistently without you having to ask for a format each time. The goal isn’t “AI assistant”, it’s “someone who listened really well.”
And with GPT, you’re interacting with a model. With Sway, you’re capturing your thinking habit.

I’ve always felt typing slows thinking down. Something that keeps the original momentum while adding structure sounds extremely useful.
Sway
@leo_aj That’s exactly how it feels for me too.
Preserving momentum first, structure second is the core idea behind Sway. Really appreciate you sharing this.
Such a great Platform which dont even force you to sign up like the other Ai modules a small feedback there should be a preview of the text that you are speaking.
Sway
@ahmed_sarfraz Thanks, Ahmed🙏 really appreciate that.
We’re very intentional about lowering friction and letting people try before committing.
On the live text preview: we’ve experimented with it, and interestingly some users feel less present when they see the words while speaking. We’re still exploring the right balance there.
@christian73 This is really interesting and immediately piqued my interest. I've been trying to solve this problem for myself as well. I've been using Google Docs audio tools to essentially word vomit into a doc and then put it into Claude to try to organize and clarify my thoughts.
@christian73 I just tested the app and I have to say that I would try it again. It took the second step out of my process by not having to then move the block of text into another AI (Claude) to get the outline output. I also didn't realize until using this app that by not seeing the words I'm saying (like I do in Docs) actually allows me to stay more present in my thoughts. I didn't realize just how much I'm still editing my thoughts and words as I'm going just because I can see the words in the Doc.

@lauren_holloway This really means a lot, thank you for sharing this so thoughtfully.
The part about not seeing the words and staying more present is exactly what we hoped people would feel. So glad it removed a step from your process 🙏🫶🏽
