AI-powered writing coach

Tl;dr - built and launched https://www.writerightai.com/ in ~4 hours to exercise my "build" muscles.

Idea

After brainstorming a few ideas, one was an app targeting kids or English learners to help improve their writing, grammar and vocabulary. Naturally, the questions around "doesn't Grammarly do this?" crept into my head, but my goal for this was to execute and build as fast as I could.

What does it do?

Users can practice their writing by answering practice questions, their answers will be evaluated to correct grammar and sentence structure, with additional suggestions provided. For example:

Input: "My name is Prashant, and I enjoy building things. Sometimes I tend to overthink and overcomplicate ideas, so I'm working on trying to get into a faster idea/build/release cycle."

Output: "My name is Prashant, and I take great joy in building things. Oftentimes I find myself overthinking and complicating ideas needlessly, so I am working to try and get into a faster idea/build/release cycle."

It currently has a free plan, with a paid "Pro" plan - the paid plan is to try validating whether this MVP can be monetized.

Tech stack

I have a personal "starter-template" which I'll be using for most web apps going forward. WriteRightAI was build using a fork of this, consisting of:

• NextJS
• ChakraUI (Pro) for UI
• Auth0 for authentication
• MongoDB

This is a stack I'm very familiar with, hence easier for me to build faster.

Thanks for reading through my brain dump. Cheers.
