Writing is Slow, Talking is Fast
When someone asks you the right questions, the ideas just flow. You articulate things clearly because you're responding to prompts, not staring at a blank page. The structure emerges naturally through dialogue instead of forced outlining.
Topic Generation Through Conversation
Most content tools assume you already know what you want to say.
Riff helps you discover topics through conversation. Start with a general topic or idea. The agent asks questions. You respond. New angles emerge that you hadn't considered as standalone topics. A tangent becomes a blog post.
The conversation is the ideation process. You're not transcribing pre-formed thoughts. You're thinking out loud with something that pushes back, asks for clarification, and helps you see which ideas have legs.
Then you look at the transcript and realize you've just outlined 3-4 different posts without trying.
How Riff Works
Click "Let's Riff" in your dashboard. An AI voice agent interviews you about your topic. It asks follow-up questions, digs for specific examples, and pulls out quotable insights. The same things a good content person would do, except with prebuilt context about your industry.
You're not explaining basics to a general content writer. You're having a real conversation with something that understands the domain.
The conversation happens in real-time, transcribing everything. When you're done, Waldium generates a draft post from the conversation. It has your actual phrasing, your specific examples, your thinking process.
The Technical Implementation
Riff is built on three components:
Voice Interface (Vapi): Real-time speech-to-text with context retention across conversation turns. The agent maintains thread state, so follow-up questions reference earlier answers naturally.
Visual Feedback (ElevenLabs UI Toolkit): The Orb provides ambient feedback during conversation. Visual confirmation that the agent is listening, processing, or waiting for you to continue. This makes the voice interaction feel responsive even when there's network latency.
Draft Generation: When the conversation ends, Waldium generates a blog post from the transcript. The writing agent structures your spoken thoughts into a polished draft with proper flow and sections.
