Tellaprompt Progress Update December 2023: A Development-Heavy Q4
As we wrap up a bustling Q4, let's delve into the strides we've made since our significant evolution in October. Our recent endeavors have focused on upgrading our technological foundation. Here is a peek into the varied themes we've been working on.
Commitment to Privacy, Security, Ethics
We place paramount importance on privacy, security, and ethical practices, particularly in handling data. Our discussions often return to the crucial task of reassuring individuals about the safety and protection of their information. Our policy will be straightforward and centered on privacy: By default, we neither store nor use data for training AI models without explicit consent. This commitment is not only a fundamental aspect of our operations but also reflected in FAQ sections for every product, designed to address common concerns such as 'Is my data safe? What happens to it?'.
Enhancing User Experience
Our vision for user interfaces prioritizes clarity and efficiency, key elements that allow our users to navigate seamlessly and effectively. One concept currently in development is 'smart truncation.' Imagine AI that can generate summaries to fit the available screen space, and also offers the option to explore in-depth explanations. This feature enables users to quickly capture the main points and delve deeper into details when needed.
The prospect of a voice interface is another area we’re exploring. Picture interacting with Tellaprompt products using spoken commands, creating an experience that’s both seamless and intuitive. This development is not just about ease of use; it's a stride towards supporting a diverse range of languages and accents, making our products more accessible to a global audience.
Another aspect we're keenly focusing on is the integration of external apps and data sources. Consider the convenience of linking your Google calendar (with your permission, of course!) to Tellaprompt. This integration could enable intelligent suggestions and reminders, offering insights that save time and boost productivity.
Pricing and Performance Optimization
Navigating the evolving landscape of AI, we recognize the challenge of balancing competitive pricing with the variable costs of AI models. We're developing a pricing model that closely aligns with actual token costs: shorter text prompts are more economical, whereas more complex requests, such as those involving vision, would incur a higher cost. This approach not only adapts to the ever-changing AI field but also strives to provide a flexible pricing structure catering to a diverse audience.
To illustrate, imagine if the cost of a GPT-4 API call drops by half; our model would reflect this reduction automatically, effectively halving the credit cost for our customers. This example underscores our commitment to affordability and transparency in pricing.
Continuous Improvement Through AI
At Tellaprompt, we harness AI not only to empower our users but also to refine our internal operations. For instance, by utilizing advanced AI tools to record and analyze our conversations and development sessions, we are building a comprehensive repository of knowledge and insights with minimal effort. This initiative goes beyond mere documentation; it streamlines our workflow. It opens possibilities for automating aspects of content creation, such as transforming our discussions into informative blog posts, which allows us to share valuable insights more promptly with our community.
Moreover, this practice greatly enhances team efficiency, enabling us to focus on more creative and strategic work while ensuring that valuable information is captured and utilized effectively. Looking ahead, we see this as a stepping stone to further advancements, potentially revolutionizing how we approach customer service, product development, and knowledge sharing within our industry.
Looking Ahead
Enough about our plans — you must be eager to see what we've been cooking up! Our next post will unveil our first app built on our latest infrastructure, a step closer to bringing these visions to life.
