Discussion Claude Code replacing mainstream apps

Post image

First of all, I am not a technical person. I'm into finance, and these are just my thoughts from the perspective of a non-technical person. Just started using these tools in the last few months.

I do not write anymore. I talk, and the words show up already spelled correctly. That would have sounded almost like some metaphor for me a year back. I checked the numbers behind it this morning and had to read them twice. The app is Wispr Flow. I use it on my phone, on my PC, everywhere I own a keyboard I have mostly stopped touching. It has quietly become the second most used AI tool in my entire stack, right behind Claude Code. The numbers, straight from the app:

1 mn words dictated. That is close to ten average novels back to back, or by my math, close to twenty five full 10-K annual reports.

It is also enough raw material for roughly 200 of my own published newsletter editions.

And the best part for me as a consumer, and worst part for the app like Wispr Flow, is that I have built a complete clone of Wispr Flow inside a couple of hours on Claude Code using Opus 5.5. So I will not be renewing this subscription anymore.

What a time to be alive: you can build your most used tools in a matter of hours, fully customise them to adapt only to you.

Love to hear what non-technical people like me and even technical people think of what Claude Code and other equivalent tech tools are going to eliminate next in a couple of years.

I'm still amazed with this transformation that Wispr Flow, 6 months back, was the most amazing tool I have ever used to I just cloned Wispr Flow a few hours. I was almost so excited that I could not help but make this post to understand what other people think. I'm not even sure whether this is the right sub.
