Voice AI: Get the Proof. Avoid the Hype.

Deepgram interviewed 400 senior leaders on voice AI adoption: 97% already use it, 84% will increase budgets, yet only 21% are very satisfied with legacy agents. See where enterprises deploy human-like voice AI agents - customer service, task automation, order capture. Benchmark your roadmap against $100M peers for 2026 priorities.

🆒 3 Insanely Useful Tools

A curation of awesome websites, tools, & apps that I came across this week…

------

1. Nimo

Nimo

Nimo is an “intelligent'“ canvas that connects your everyday apps and tools. It replaces your browser tabs with context-rich AI Cards, and generates dynamic apps from Gmail, Sheets, Notion and more with a simple prompt.

------

2. Audioread

Audioread

Audioread is an AI-powered text-to-speech platform that converts written content, such as web articles, PDFs, and emails, into high-quality, human-like audio that you can listen to in your podcast player. It’s not new but worth a revisit.

------

3. Friday

Friday

Friday is like Cursor but for Gmail. It promises to get rid of junk, summarize emails, and handle routine responses faster than any human could. I haven’t tried this yet but it looks promising.

😻 Posts We Loved This Week

Here’s what stood out…

------

1. ScreenshotOne just hit $300,000 ARR

A massive congrats to Dmytro for reaching $300k ARR with ScreenshotOne — a screenshot API for developers. Such an impressive founder.

2. Wilson hit $1k MRR with Ferndesk

Ferndesk is a beautiful, AI-native help centre that stays up to date and lets you write help articles 10x faster with AI. Wilson recently left Senja, a company he co-founded with Olly (now $1M ARR) and it’s super cool to see him grow this so fast.

3. Ayush hit $400 MRR with OutlierKit

OutlierKit is a YouTube competitor analysis tool. It took Ayush 180 days to get his first $100 in MRR. A friendly reminder to not throw in the towel too early and keep going.

4. Senja hit $1M ARR with Senja

Massive congrats to Olly for hitting the magic $1M ARR mark with Senja, a testimonial SaaS. It took them 3 years and 9 months and they have over 3,000 paying customers. Wildly impressive.
