Show HN: I built a voice-first tool for Twitter, pivoted to cursor for X

Earlier this July, I had a rare week to focus, so I built a tool that let you call in, speak your idea, and schedule a Twitter post. My background is in voice tech, which gave me an intuition for how these systems work. In a three-week window, I launched that voice-first version, playing with ElevenLabs to make it happen. After launch, I didn't get much traction. One fan from X tried it out and suggested having a UI for editing posts before publishing. I realized that pure voice wasn't enough.

Last week, I figured that a chat-based, cursor-like interface would be cool, so I quickly shifted to that. Now, X11.social lets you start with a voice brain dump or typed text, then edit and polish your posts before sending them to X.

I'm still absolutely figuring out the market here. With no marketing background, I started posting some video logs to X and just documenting the journey. I've met many interesting people during this journey in such a short period.

If you're interested in creating authentic posts for X without overthinking, I'd appreciate any feedback.

By the way, X11 is not that X11 protocol from the old days. "X" is for the platform, "11" is a nod to voice AI, originally inspired by ElevenLabs. I'm building custom voice infrastructure nearly done!, but kept the name - it just fits the "call to tweet" vision.
