the way Sherpa took 100 million hours of hit stories as homework and graduated instantly
Introducing Sherpa: the most advanced fiction writing AI We accelerated from $250M in ARR to $500M because Sherpa helped increase content production by 1200% in 1 year Sherpa was trained on 5.5B hours of playtime with minute by minute dynamic retention data. 550K+ creators have produced 2.6M hours of content annualised using it Pocket FM is like Netflix for audio-only dramas, with our own pool of one-person studios. 10% of eligible writers on Pocket FM make >$200K One blockbuster produced >$100M in revenue 3 writers have become millionaires in <2 yrs We built Sherpa to enable anyone to make >$1M by writing world-class fiction stories: 1. The Idea: Drop a 1-2 sentence concept. Sherpa interrogates it like a veteran editor on tension, stakes, and psychology 2. World & Characters: It builds out the complete lore, tone, and character psychologies 3. Sub-Plot planning: Breaks the premise into arcs, arcs into episodes, and episodes into scenes 4. Scene-by-Scene Generation: Outlines and drafts entire episodes, with you able to steer, rewrite, or override anytime 5. Editorial Review: Stress-tests every draft for pacing, engagement drop-offs, prose, and coherence before it locks 6. One-Tap Production: Pick a voice, convert to audio drama, and publish directly to Pocket FM’s millions of listeners 7. Global Scale & Monetization: Revenue-share on performance, with automatic localization so you earn across international markets Test Sherpa for free here: pocketfm.com/sherpa _____________________________________________ Generic LLMs fail at serialized fiction because they lack a long-horizon narrative reward function. Sherpa solves this through three core technical leaps: 1. Narrative World Model (State Tracking & Retrieval): Context windows degrade over long runs. Sherpa constructs an evolving semantic knowledge graph tracking character states, secrets, and plot dependencies. High-speed retrieval surfaces exact context on demand, maintaining zero continuity decay across hundreds of episodes 2. Hierarchical Story Planner: When writing a 500-episode story like Naruto, you need to plan 100s of sub plots. Rather than generating linearly, Sherpa decomposes narrative across discrete levels: season -> arc -> sequence -> episode -> scene. Rather than generating everything upfront, like a generic LLM, Sherpa uses progressive planning and dynamic replanning. As the story evolves, it identifies what changed, traces the downstream impact, and replans only the affected parts. 3. Prose Engine (Trained on series' retention data): LLMs write robotically, but serial fiction needs emotion, tension, pacing, and dialogue that sounds like real people. Sherpa's Prose Engine was designed specifically for storytelling. It was built on 1B+ tokens of Pocket's own stories, trained by learning from what listeners engage with, where they drop off, and what keeps them hooked. Feedback is taken from specialized evaluator models that measure every scene against a 40-item checklist. (Evaluator models were benchmarked against human reviewers and matched them 80–90% of the time.) _______________________________________________ Owning distribution and creation puts us in a very unique spot. More shows -> More data -> Sherpa becomes better -> more creator success -> more creators -> more shows Pocket FM has already seen one $100M IP. I believe Sherpa will soon lead to dozens of single-person studios creating billion-dollar shows. Most people are scared of AI but I think it'll unlock more human creativity, help creators earn more, and bring the next great IPs to life. This will create millions of jobs and new income streams.

the exact face you make when Sherpa catches the inconsistency in your season outline before you even finished writing it

THE CAMERA WAS NEVER THE THREAT. The threat was running out of excuses. Production got cheap. Taste did not. You can hold a hundred years of cinema in your pocket and still have nothing to say.
Every era in this film was, at the time, the end of cinema. The zoetrope was a toy. Sound would ruin the actors. Colour was vulgar. Then TV, then video, then digital, then phones. Someone was always certain it was over. They were always talking about the equipment.

for most of the history of video, EVERY NEW IDEA came with a little calculation: β€œis this worth the time to make?” that question quietly kills an INSANE number of ideas. AI is starting to remove that limit. not by making every idea good, but by making it cheap enough to FIND the good ones.

YOU BUILT THE PRODUCT IN A WEEKEND Then the usual mess starts: checkout, tax, payouts, customers. This puts all of it in one place ⬇️ β†’ Products and pricing in 2 clicks β†’ Pay what you want + tax included β†’ Balances and payouts with no spreadsheet β†’ Your whole customer list in one screen Build with AI.
Sell and grow with this. Save this before it’s too lateπŸ”–
Building a product went from months to a weekend. Getting paid for it did not. Building is fast, marketing and growth are hard. Today we fix that. We are excited to announce CREEM 2.0 and that we have raised 7M EUR in total funding @ProductHunt launch and details below πŸ‘‡

Nobody ever talks about how draining it is to be polite AND clear AND firm all at once. Tonebird helping me say it better without changing what I mean?? FINALLY. Somebody actually built it.
I raised $13M pitching a proactive agent. The demos impressed rooms. But the product wasn’t becoming part of anyone’s day. that was painful to admit. I had to let go of (my ego) and needing the idea to sound fancy. i stopped asking, β€œWhat can’t Codex or @bot do?” and started paying attention to what people were struggling with in their everyday work. Messages kept piling up across WhatsApp, iMessage, and email. Keeping up meant digging through old threads, switching apps, and worrying about tones. Something so small was taking up so much time,energy, and headspace(for me, messages and scheduling eating up 50%+ of my day). So I built ToneBird for it. Launching today ↓
