A Tweet turned into a Product: Handywriter

I’ve launched Handywriter today. It’s been one of my favorite tools in WordPress since I built it. It’s a good feeling to be a consumer of your own product. And, Handywriter is not an exception, it helps me a lot while blogging.

It all started with:

What if I build a WordPress plugin that combines Grammarly and AI writer tools 🤔

I've checked some plugins already but they are giving a poor UX. I'd like to see deeper level integration with WP, (eg: creating the content through a custom block)

but I underlying reason is not just the tweet. Ideally, I want to bring AI power along with some grammar fixers (such as Grammarly) and plagiarism checker.

Since the market has been dominated by AI-Powered writing tools already, I’m not sure whether it will get succeeded or not, but time will show the results. Lots of things on my plate to improve it; we will see…
