gm readers, builders, and legends! Welcome back to the Leaderboard. In today's issue, we have: An AI that is trained on you, the return of the disposable camera, and maybe the future of music. Let's dive in.
Spiral V2: Automates repetitive creative work, in your voice
Spiral is like ChatGPT — if ChatGPT was trained specifically on *your* voice. You can give it any form of content (bullet points, transcripts, survey results) and it will transform them into tweets, emails, blog posts, or whatever else you need, written in a style that closely resembles the data you trained your “spiral” on. Beyond the obvious uses for marketers and social media influencers here, I’m excited about the creative possibilities for artists. What could Spiral produce if you fed it the entirety of Shakespeare’s poetic corpus (or your own)?
Party!: A fresh take on capturing life’s best moments with friends
Remember disposable cameras at parties? You’d wind the film, snap a blurry shot, and hope for the best. Party! brings that vibe back but skips the awkward drugstore trip. It’s a digital disposable camera for weddings, birthdays, and more, where everyone snaps photos and shares them privately—no feeds, no algorithms, no pressure. Just candid moments with the people who were there. It’s a refreshing fix for over-curated social media, keeping the focus on real connections. Maybe it’s nostalgia talking, but this feels like something we’ve been missing.
Suno v4: AI-powered music creation.
Suno v4 is honestly kind of mind-blowing. Since it launched, I’ve been creating like crazy, and the results have been seriously impressive. The song structures feel more natural, and it captures so much detail—especially when you use those bracketed instructions to guide it. The new “remaster” feature makes older tracks sound so much clearer, with better flow and super crisp audio. There’s still a bit of a shimmering effect on the vocals sometimes, which isn’t perfect, but honestly, for everything else it gets right, I can live with it. This version feels like a big step forward.
