202407251038 AI + Audio first draft tool

A product spec

Problem

• It’s hard but worth it to write
• Getting started is the hardest part.
• AI isn’t good enough to write for you from a thought

Solution

• AI interviews people, and you just talk.
• AI helps structure it into an outline as you talk (but you control it)
• When you’re done, AI uses your own words to generate a first draft

Design

• First step: interview
  • You see a question, you talk or type and see your answer
  • You hit “next” when you’re done answering, and the AI keeps asking questions
  • You can keep going or say “we have what we need” and proceed to the next step
• Second step: outline
  • AI uses the interview to generate an outline
  • You can easily re-arrange or edit it
  • You can prompt the AI to change it as well
  • When you’re happy you can proceed to the next step
• Third step: draft
  • AI uses the transcript and the outline to generate a first draft for you, using as many of your own words as possible
  • Now you’ve got a first draft that’s well-structured and sounds like you

Possible problems

• It’s hard to record a voice memo (feels weird talking to yourself)
