It has been a while since I have shared my app, that I made to be able to practice my Danish while chatting with my grilfriend - I often used GPT to write as much as I can in Danish, and I replaced the words I didn't know with {Englis words in curly braces}. While this was great, it was rather annoying to type the prompt always, so I figured a GPT wrapper would work well here.

Last time when I launched, it went viral! I was super happy (and grateful!) for all the feedback and excitement — but it also meant my tokens disappeared fast, and many people ended up trying an app that no longer worked...

So… I took a step back, trimmed a few auxiliary features, and started porting the whole thing over to Supabase with proper rate limiting.

It’s still a work in progress, but the core functionality is up and running — you can write in your target language, add words that you do not know (or context) in {curly braces}, and get a corrected version with explanations.

I figured I’d share an update now instead of waiting until everything’s perfect — would love to build it in the open and keep you all in the loop this time.
