Had this vision for a very long time, so happy to finally be able to make it a reality! 🎉 Our new Maishiv search experience reflects how we try to create our AI experiences thoughtfully. Both wanting to take advantage of the power of AI, but with the extra care and responsibility that working with Torah demands.

Super exciting for us to be able to be play some part in helping The Rav zt''l Legacy Project (theravlegacy.org) in their mission. On a personal level, this one especially means a lot to me, because as a talmid of @RIETSYeshiva, almost all of my rebbeim are talmidim of the Rav, or talmidim of his talmidim. And there is so much written in the Rav’s name, but I’ve always felt there is something unique about being able to hear the Torah directly from the source, in the original voice. That’s what makes this so meaningful to me. Helping make those original recorded shiurim more accessible feels like a real fulfillment of the mission of @Sofer_Ai , and something that can be a real service to the community.

Building out the @Sofer_Ai experience for educators is a top priority for us. As demoed in the video below, there are already fantastic ways teachers and rebeim can use the technology, but we believe there is room to grow in a lot of ways. We hope to have a platform specifically designed for schools, teachers, and students by next school year. If you are interested, please reach out.

You can always email support@sofer.ai and we'll make sure to review and look into what went wrong. And then on our end something we do want to add is a feature for being able to show where the model was least confident or possibly left stuff out because it didn't know what was said, and highlighting that to the user so they could investigate and double check. It's something that we would love to add. Hopefully we can have it sooner rather than later.

@ZachEFish Is there a way to get report on parts of the transcribe that sofer.ai struggled so u can review those areas? Places where seconds went by with no transcript?

Regarding translation, right now you have to do that through our 'transformations' feature. Once you have the transcript you could go to transformations, write a prompt for how you want to translate it, and run it. It happens to be transformations right now only a max plan, but I think we're going to move that to the pro plan this week so stay on the lookout for that.

@ShlomoPV And once you insert the outline into the transcript, if you click download, you'll have the option to save it as a Word file.

@Mottel @Sofer_Ai Yes, but is a bit case by case. Older seforim with really tight text it can struggle with. But modern sefarim with clean text that are in ksav Rashi should work solid

@ZachEFish @Sofer_Ai Can it handle ksav Rashi?

What a fantastic use case of our @sofer_ai OCR. And not even one that I originally intended, but one that I heard from my Rabbi friend that this is his main use case for Sofer!

@AnashReporter @Sofer_Ai lol, love it

@ZachEFish @Sofer_Ai have a feeling this won't boost my productivity

@matanyall if you make the switch I can hook you up

My favorite part about this: this wasn’t even my idea. A couple of users suggested it, and I thought, they’re right it's a good idea, we should do this. So we did. If you ever have ideas for @Sofer_Ai , even small ones that would just make the experience better even a little but, always feel free to reach out.

@DBashIdeas @Sofer_Ai 🫶

The @Sofer_Ai system is incredible. As you wait for the AI processing they offer a chapter of tehillim to recite on behalf of the Jewish People. ❤️‍🩹

unfortunately true

@rohanvarma @intercom And should also just say thank you for the amazing work on codex - really such a game changing tool that has improved my work in such amazing ways!

@rohanvarma An @intercom plugin would be great!

If there are plugins we don't support that you want to see, let me know! Since we started dogfooding plugins internally, my workflow for almost any task starts with firing off Codex in the app to go investigate, gather context, and generate artifacts like docs, sheets, and websites. I am honestly consistently blown away with Codex's ability to find obscure context throughout my tools and do work that would have taken me 30-40 minutes, if not hours.

Why is the Apple Watch/Smart Watch not a great form factor for a wearable AI device?
