Hey HN,

A few months ago, I was overwhelmed by the endless task of writing emails. It took up hours every day. One evening, while chatting with a friend, a thought struck me: what if AI could handle our emails?

The Idea

Inspired by AI advancements, I envisioned a tool to automate email writing. The goal was simple: create something that fits into daily routines, handles multiple languages, and generates accurate emails.

The Journey

I delved into AI and natural language processing, focusing on the nuances of email communication—tone, context, and clarity. After weeks of research, I started coding the prototype. The early versions were rough but promising. I rigorously tested them by writing my own emails.

Building Scribix

A major breakthrough was enabling the AI to learn from past emails, adapting to a user’s unique style over time. This made emails generated by Scribix feel personal and authentic.

Real-World Testing

I shared the prototype with friends and colleagues. Their feedback was invaluable. They loved how Scribix could draft responses in seconds, handle multiple languages, and understand conversation context.

The Result

After months of development and countless iterations, Scribix became a powerful email assistant. It composes emails from brief prompts, generates context-aware replies, and saves users significant time, allowing them to focus on more important tasks.
