TranscriptFriday works. Bring the folding chairs, I will sort out the lamps.
The chat app that is not exhausting.
Voice first. Every note is transcribed, every room is drop-in, and your inbox holds only what is addressed to you.

Everything in one view
Server, channel, conversation, live room and inbox. No tabs to hunt through.
An inbox that holds only what is for you
Replies, voice notes sent to you and events you are invited to land in one short list. Everything else stays in its channel until you go looking.
Voice notes you can read
Hold to talk, let go, and the note arrives with a transcript. Listeners can read it in a quiet place or play it when it suits them.
Drop-in rooms with a live transcript
A voice room is a place that is simply open. Join when you like, leave quietly, and follow the conversation as text if you cannot turn the sound up.
Servers that feel like places
Each server has a homepage you arrange with widgets: what is happening now, what is next, what is pinned and what people made.
Screen sharing with a small studio
Watching a share feels like watching a stream, and starting one takes two steps. When you want a tidier result, the studio lets you set the scene before you go live.
Bots, with a proper toolkit
Slash commands, buttons and forms, in Python or TypeScript, with a local simulator so you can test without a server. Coming soon.
import { bot } from "@yappio/bot";
const app = bot({ name: "kettle" });
app.command("plan", async (ctx) => {
await ctx.reply({ text: "Friday at seven." });
});Questions
When can I use Yappio?
Right now. Sign up and use it in your browser. A Windows app and a Linux app are on the way.
Which devices will it run on?
The web app works in any current browser today. Desktop apps for Windows and Linux are being finished.
What will it cost?
Chatting, voice, video and 60 fps screen sharing are free. Paid plans for extra capability are not open yet.
What happens to my email address?
It is used for your login, to confirm your account and to reset your password. Nothing else.
Can I build bots for it?
Yes, a bot platform with Python and TypeScript SDKs is in progress. The developers page shows what the code looks like.
