Airchat, a new social app co-founded by Naval Ravikant, is gaining traction for its unique approach to social media, focusing on voice messages with an option for automatic transcription. Described as a blend of Clubhouse and Twitter, Airchat offers a platform for real-time voice conversations that can be transcribed into text, aiming to combine the immediacy of speaking with the convenience of reading. Users have praised its design and user experience, comparing it to early versions of Clubhouse but highlighting its distinct features like the high-quality text-to-speech function and the ability to engage in more human and personal conversations compared to traditional text-based social media. The app's launch has sparked a flurry of activity, with many users sharing their excitement about the platform's potential to change how people interact online. Airchat is currently available on both iOS and Android and operates on an invite-only basis.

I’m really feeling the latest update in @getairchat - I’m convinced async audio/text is the future Every interaction feels almost like a mini podcast you’re constructing with friends Josh Cho and I are having a really fascinating conversation about imaginated realities and how… https://t.co/Md5rasqfbL
Someone send me an air chat invite so I can be disappointed in Paris.

Woke up to a barrage of texts from some of my most favorite people inviting me to explore @getairchat. What is it? Founded by @naval, it promises a "fresh social media experience." The platform provides a push-to-talk layout for social media, allowing users to communicate… https://t.co/2nVo3txLpe
airchat is just twitter for people who have a podcast
When the legend @0xSigil is building a product, you have to try It. Always cool finding an OG friend building cool apps like AirChat. Congrats on this you young legend. https://t.co/crVjAfW9Oq
New airchat appears to be voicenotes Twitter
I don’t know what Airchat is yet but I’m on there @/ralts
Best explanation of design decisions made by the AirChat team: As @naval mentions: "Speaking is the fastest way to generate content. Reading is the fastest way to consume content." Hence (1) Input is audio by default (& audio only) (2) Output is text by default (but, option to… https://t.co/AAQJIugGch
Old Airchat was a vibe fr fr https://t.co/oKPOA7xdoJ
amazing things happening on airchat rn https://t.co/KBMgqCnhrs
if @getairchat blows up(which is happening as we speak) people are going to hate typing i’m already finding it hard typing on other apps
The old Airchat was too heavy and cluttered. The new Airchat is simple and easy to engage with. I don’t know the full backstory but the old Airchat felt intentionally messy, a playground to experiment with new tech and learn from users’ behavior. This has parallels to…
Downloaded Airchat so I can talk about it here on Twitter.
Any friends tried @getairchat yet?
Airchat is giving me Clubhouse vibes not in a good way either
Why are all these people so excited about Airchat?
hmmm - really digging @getairchat - see a ton of use cases… particularly around tech and AMA type content
I’m at jasonliu on Airchat. I like it.

Today by tweet feed is all about @getairchat

when @naval hops on airchat https://t.co/3kQQ1Seh0d
Got my first taste of Airchat from the brilliant @BrianNorgard and @naval and an excellent team. Hearing voices makes things so much more human than the text and shouting on Twitter. Twitter feels old for the first time to me. (Oh wait it’s not Twitter anymore)
Idk if AirChat will become anything but you can follow me over there if you like 😜 Thx for the invite @jnconkle 😎 https://t.co/WLiLIAfFm0
Airchat feels like early Clubhouse rn
Airchat might kill my desire to podcast

What is Airchat and why is everyone going to stop using it in a month?
What do you think about Airchat so far? - great product. Looks super slick - gives a similar vibe to early Clubhouse when it was mainly the tech crowd - don’t know if people will actually continue to chat via audio since text is easier in public places: restaurant, library,…

Air chat app review: 1) Well-designed and easy to use/signup. 2) Feels like Zuck's T-hreads but with dictation and voice recordings. 3) Naval in there answering directly to get the flywheel moving. I wish them luck, and it would be fun if it gets going! (I'm…
Airchat review: 1) Very well-designed and easy to use/signup. 2) Feels like Zuckerberg's Threads but with dictation and voice recordings. 3) Naval in there answering directly to get the flywheel moving. I wish them luck, and it would be fun if it gets going! (I'm doubtful.)
Airchat is magical It’s beautifully designed and intensely human Nice work @naval @BrianNorgard and the rest of the team
The app @naval @BrianNorgard @0xSigil and more have been working on quietly for years just launched. Simple, beautiful, effortless, engaging. Platform has the culture of Twitter in 2010. https://t.co/JV3K95qHnM
Just installed it. I struggle with finding the right space to consume audio messages (between meetings, while commuting with no cell service, sitting at the playground with the kiddos) so I find myself reading the thread more than listening @naval and @BrianNorgard. Seeing the… https://t.co/UUXdVmCaQE
I've been playing with @naval 's totally revamped version of Airchat for the past few weeks and the experience has been absolutely incredible! It's a voice messaging app with about 95% perfect automatic transcription (works in all kind of languages too!) - the quality of… https://t.co/tEWSqyvOt3
using the AirChat app like God and @naval intended https://t.co/ASqW31QMCr
honestly having so much fun listening to people on airchat add me https://t.co/MH8ChULViy
An all-new version of Airchat is now available for iOS and Android. If you were a user of the old app, you should be able to use the same phone number to sign up for the new one. Otherwise, ask a friend on the app for an invite! Download here: https://t.co/LAFj3PNe8d
I'm seeing people tweet about Airchat. Is it just the next Clubhouse?
Okay so, the new Airchat is impressive, I did not expect it to be this good. A lot are referring to it as a social walkie-talkie. It makes sense why Naval built this for himself. It’s invite only, directions at end of thread if you want one. Some initial findings: https://t.co/DOjUiRcG2Z
I was kinda skeptical at first bc I’m not a big fan of social apps, but this truly feels different Real conversation, still async Amazing job @0xSigil. Follow me there @jesus https://t.co/uvUnHtaYso
Airchat is now available on Android. https://t.co/tBiR0WuIIH
On @getairchat as JChavez. So far, I dig.
Conversation is locally linear but highly branching. Exciting to see this idea come to life in @getairchat!! Beautiful new design here. Fantastic work @0xSigil https://t.co/YBmBat71KK
Airchat feels like a walkie-talkie on steroids. Instead of 8-year-old Alex playing hide-and-seek with his best friend, 30-year-old Alex is sending his voice to the global frequency. And I'm kind of digging it.
airchat has some semblance of clubhouse august 2020
I just got marriage advice from @naval If you’re building a social app, this is the blueprint Talk to early users engage hang out and have fun Bullish on @getairchat https://t.co/c4hHPbbDUx
“Why DMs? Let’s do in public, man” - @naval @getairchat is officially baller https://t.co/wc2xsEcDvV
Follow me on Airchat! https://t.co/TwkFuQ8fnj
Airchat’s auto-transcription of a voice clip to text is in hindsight so obvious that every social and messaging app will copy it. They did it super well. https://t.co/hJpzBbx4M5
Follow me on @getairchat will be sharing deranged takes all night via voice https://t.co/ETJc8DHua3
I have AirChat invites, but here’s the catch https://t.co/EhqwOUY5ob
So it’s like Clubhouse and Twitter had a baby? 🧐🤔 @getairchat https://t.co/bBhqB8pXRn
So this Airchat thing is pretty fun. Naval may even follow you. DM + Reply for an invite. https://t.co/xJnj39PveB
sent a few people an airchat invite. feels like an interesting experiment.
just setting up my airchat. Had Naval follow me; thanks @theisaacmed for the intro!
New Airchat is good
You know when some asshole invites you to their ‘fireside chat’ and says ‘come join the conversation w/ me and [insert person you’ll never talk to]’ Well if you actually wanna join the conversation w/ me and Naval (and Sigil, and Bryan, and Arjun, and etc etc), the new Airchat… https://t.co/lHzjgnMtkZ
Airchat is really fun - great work @BrianNorgard!
I’m enjoying Airchat. The old iPod feel is real. @naval @getairchat https://t.co/ksTjAUewQg
I will no longer be tweeting. Add me on Airchat https://t.co/1bz1Cejgkd
ok @getairchat is pretty cool listening to people speak in this format (versus a podcast) is very unique
