We added heatmap integration. Ran AI on street-level data. Built a full dataset. Now we cover most of the US, and major cities in Europe. All integrated into the map. Better routes, Better scores, Better UX!

We are here!

Hey, we’re Kant, and here’s how our week went: This week we shipped a stronger Easyspell flow across onboarding, practice, stories, parent insights, and paywall. Kids now get a smoother start, more personalized story-based spelling practice, better audio behavior, and clearer progress tracking for parents. On the marketing side, we started sourcing UGC from moms in the US, and we’re preparing to launch Meta ads with Scate AI to test our first paid acquisition loops. Overall, this week was about tightening the product experience and starting to build the growth engine around it.

It’s been around 8–9 days since Walkable went live, and we’ve been in full iteration mode since then. We’ve been focusing on improving the experience, listening closely to user feedback, and preparing the next set of updates. We’ll also be sharing a video of what we worked on this week, a bit more behind the scenes on what’s been going on 👀 Next up: shipping updates based on our latest tests ❤️ Also… we may or may not have printed Walkable t-shirts this week. (felt cute might delete later?) More to come!!!!

We kicked off this testing phase by using our onboarding and welcome bonus, jumping straight into the core experience with a real use case. The stone you see here is something we genuinely found outside—we didn’t place it or stage anything—so this is as close as it gets to a real user moment. From there, we scanned it to understand what it is, explore its properties, and see how it connects to us on a more personal level, like zodiac compatibility or potential use cases. At the same time, this wasn’t just about the scan itself. We’re actively testing the latest version of the product, which we refined after multiple discussions with our mentors. We received a lot of valuable feedback around experience, clarity, and depth, and this version reflects those improvements. So this moment is both a product test and a validation step for the direction we’re taking. It’s been a really exciting process so far. This is just the beginning—we’ll continue iterating, improving the experience, and building a product that people can come back to every day.

We tested our latest update by scanning a real stone we found outside—exploring its properties, value, and zodiac connection. This is just the beginning.

What if your route wasn’t just faster, but safer? 📍 We built Walkable, a safe route planner designed for moments when getting somewhere isn’t the only priority. Whether you’re in a new city, walking late at night, or just want to feel more comfortable on your way, Walkable helps you choose routes that feel right, not just the quickest ones. This is the idea we brought to the championship — and it got us into the top 6 and into the Growth Lab phase. Right now, we’re focused on improving, testing, and scaling Walkable with real user feedback. It’s still early, but we think navigation can be more than just getting from A to B. Walk safer, not just faster. 🟢

We spent most of this week making things actually work. Set up the SDKs, connected subscription methods, and had our fair share of back-and-forth with Apple along the way. Walkable is now live (on the second try… which we’ll take 😅). We also had our first growth session with Scate AI. Lots of ideas, lots of “okay we need to rethink this”. Meanwhile, we’ve been working on new updates in the background. Planning to ship a new version next week, pretty excited about that 👀

We built it in 48 hours. Now we're waiting for our first users. 🎙️ You don't have to spend time reading the morning news — AI News Podcast app collects the day's headlines from X and the web, and automatically turns them into a podcast. You just listen. We're in beta. Try it, tell us what you think.

We launched AI News Podcast app. First creative test starts now. On April 10-12, we joined the Neon Apps x RevenueCat x Scate.ai hackathon. We built AI News Podcast app from scratch in 48 hours — and made it to the top 6 finalists. Last week, the app went live. Now the real work begins: growth. App Marketing 101 — going live isn't the finish line, it's the starting line. Our next step is running the first creative test. And a good creative test starts with solid use case research. Here's how we did it. I opened the Leus Visua to search in Meta, Tiktok and Admob Ad Library. Searched across text-to-speech, AI audio, and news aggregator categories. Studied which hooks are being used, which user problems are being highlighted, which formats have longer lifespans. Then I moved to Pinterest Trends. Tracked the direction of terms like "AI podcast", "morning routine", "news summary" — and scanned organic content to understand how users actually express this need. 3 use cases emerged: 1. Morning routine — The user who doesn't want to spend time reading the news while making coffee. Hands free, stay informed. 2. Commute — The user who can't read while driving or walking but still wants to consume information. Podcast format wins here. 3. Information overload — Professionals who want to stay up to date but can't find the time. Catch up on the day in 3 minutes. We're now turning these 3 use cases into creatives. We'll see which message converts with which audience — and I'll share the results here.

Easyspell is live!

Here we go! Easyspell is currently live on Appstore! With various spelling exercises, scan mode, ai scoring algorithm, specialized story mode and more; we are planning on building the kids and their parents the smoothest spelling exercise experience. We believe we have done a strong start but this is just the beginning, now it is time to develop and modify the app depending on the user feedbacks day by day. Say hello to Easyspell!

App Growth Championship kapsamında geliştirdiğimiz uygulamanın eksiklerini tamamlamaya odaklandık. Bu süreçte uygulamadaki ufak hataları gidererek daha stabil bir deneyim sağladık. Ardından ihtiyaç duyduğumuz SDK kurulumlarını tamamlayarak altyapımızı güçlendirdik. Aynı zamanda App Store için gerekli ekran görüntülerini hazırladık ve uygulamamızı review sürecine göndermek üzere hazır hale getirdik. Çok yakında yayında olmayı hedefliyoruz 🙌 Sıradaki adım: kullanıcı geri bildirimleriyle ürünü daha da geliştirmek!
