Speechy

The author wrote that Speechy got its first customer after 18 months of building. The product lives at speechy.tech and is described as an on-screen AI buddy for the Mac.

It began as a local dictation tool. The author later turned it into something that lives on the Mac, sees the screen and helps in place. He used to dictate text and paste it into ChatGPT to clean it up; Speechy now does that where he is already typing. If he is stuck in a complex app such as Xcode, Blender or DaVinci Resolve, he can ask Speechy, which draws on the screen to show where to click and teaches the app as he goes. He also describes 1,000+ integrations, voice-driven email and routines, Finder cleanup, and the ability to generate small real Mac apps such as a Pomodoro timer. Everything runs from one shortcut: press a key, speak, and the software decides what is needed.

The post does not say how much this customer paid or which plan they bought. The attached image is a payments dashboard labeled Today, showing gross volume of A$273.86 at 22:44, yesterday A$00.00, and a single step up in the line. Given the “first customer” claim, this most likely reflects that day’s first recorded volume, but the author does not explicitly say A$273.86 is that customer’s payment.

The post does not state that the customer paid A$273.86 or name a plan. Acquisition channel and customer identity are undisclosed. Figures combine the author’s wording with a screenshot reading and were not independently verified.
