About Kourosh Ghaffari
Kourosh Ghaffari is a London-based developer and the founder of Voicy, an AI speech-to-text app that lets people write with their voice across Gmail, Docs, Slack and thousands of other apps and sites. He started it in 2024 after watching his father type with one finger and finding existing dictation tools too inaccurate for him.
Voicy began as a Chrome extension prototype built in about two weeks and grew through organic downloads into apps for Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android. It is bootstrapped and profitable, and TrustMRR shows about $12.2K in verified MRR. Kourosh credits RomeoSEO, his content and SEO tool, with driving much of Voicy's growth, and also works as a product manager at Tiiny Host.
