- Founder of Voicy
- $1600 monthly revenue
Kourosh Ghaffari is the founder of Voicy, an AI speech-to-text app that launched about a year ago 
From a recent interview…
Voicy started when my dad came to visit me in London. He works a lot and spends hours on his laptop, but he types slowly. Around the same time, I tried ChatGPT’s voice dictation feature and was amazed by its accuracy. I thought ‘what if anyone could have that accuracy anywhere on their computer?’…
When I started, my coding skills weren’t strong enough to build a Windows or Mac app. So, I began with a Chrome extension.
The first version was simple; it just added a microphone icon to every text field. Click it, speak, and get the transcript.
Took him about 10 weeks to build the first version with AI coding tools 
I started charging customers in February. Right now, we are at $1,600 in monthly recurring revenue.
Great example of someone building a solution to a real problem they’ve witnessed firsthand.
And using AI tools to become a proficient coder 
Try observing others using tech and see what problems they face.
