Never waste time thinking of the perfect text message again. FireTexts uses advanced AI and ChatGPT technology to generate or reply to any messages for any occasion and with any tone. Write a heartfelt birthday text to your Aunt (who you’d rather not be bothered by) Write a wonderful thank you text to your brother in law (for the $5 Amazon gift card he sent you 3 weeks past your birthday) Reply to a flirty text on your fav dating app that you've been practicing your rizz on. Write a lovely poem to your dog (because fluffy is as sentimental as they come) Respond to a passive aggressive text from your boss (in a tone you can't bare to write yourself) Write a expletive ridden gangsta rap to your grandma (yeah, FireTexts can do that too) Here's how it works: - Choose the type of message you want to send - FireTexts offers a range of message types to choose from, including birthday messages, thank-you notes, missing you texts, and many more. Simply select the type of message you want to send (or write in a custom type), choose the emotion, add any context, and FireTexts will generate a banger of a text message. We’re talkin’ something so fiery your finger will burn while hitting send. - Customize your message - You can customize your text message to make it more personal. You can add the recipient's name or any other context to make it stand out. Granny’s turning 100? FireTexts will roast the heck out of the ‘ol bag of bones (if you want it to). Boss sent you another passive aggressive text? FireTexts has your back so you won’t have to grit your teeth while writing something ‘pleasant’. $7K worth of dentistry bills saved. - Let the AI work its magic - After you've given instructions, FireTexts' AI takes over. Our app uses GPT-3.5 or GPT-4 (depending on the update) to generate a unique variation of your text, each with its own tone, emotion, and style. The AI analyzes your inputs to personalize the text message to the individual and situation. - Send your text & get the reaction you want - After you've created your text, all that's left to do is hit copy, share or save. With FireTexts' personalized texts, you can rest assured that you'll get the reaction you desire. Whether it's a smile, a thank-you, or even a hot date, FireTexts helps you craft the perfect message for any situation.

SOUNDSWIPE SoundSwipe is where musicians discover each other — and listeners find new artists — through a fast, swipe-first experience. SWIPE TO DISCOVER Browse real artists with profile photos, bios, roles, genres, and short track previews. Swipe right to connect. Swipe left to pass. When both sides connect, you’ve got a match and can start chatting. BUILT FOR COLLABORATION Producers, vocalists, singers, rappers, and engineers can set who they are and who they’re looking for. SoundSwipe surfaces people who fit what you need, instead of endless noise. LISTENERS WELCOME Prefer discovering music without pitching collaborations? Switch to Listener mode, follow artists you like, and build a collection of your favorite finds right on your profile. HEAR THEM BEFORE YOU CONNECT Every Discover card can autoplay a short track snippet. Artists choose where their preview starts, so you hear their best moment first. Pass on someone? They can return later with another track for you to discover. FEATURED • Leaderboard — Discover rising artists in the community. • Top Bid — A daily paid spotlight designed to give artists maximum visibility. • Spotlight — A rotating community member featured in the spotlight. This is not a paid ranking. YOUR PROFILE, YOUR SOUND Upload tracks, set your roles and genres, add the social links you want people to connect through, and share your profile card. Customize your profile with appearance themes that fit your style. STAY IN TOUCH Matched artists can chat in-app to plan sessions, share ideas, exchange inspiration, and keep collaborations moving. COMMUNITY When you’re ready to go beyond the swipe deck, jump into the wider Art Junkies / Fiends community.
