Speechify today announced the release of “I Cook Like Tim,” a new music video created by Speechify founder and CEO Cliff Weitzman. Written and produced by Weitzman and created using Speechify Voice Typing, the song reflects the company’s builder-driven culture and demonstrates how Speechify’s voice-first tools support creativity beyond traditional productivity workflows.
“I Cook Like Tim” was developed as both a creative project and a Speechify advertisement. The song was written using Speechify Voice Typing Dictation, highlighting how spoken ideas can be quickly transformed into structured text and finished creative work. The project demonstrates how Speechify’s voice-first tools can be used not only for reading and productivity, but also for writing, storytelling, and artistic expression.
The release reflects Weitzman’s long-standing philosophy that founders and builders should continue creating across disciplines. Over the course of his career, Weitzman has built dozens of products, with Speechify becoming the company that scaled globally. The new music video represents an extension of the same process: seeing an idea, building it, and shipping it.
Speechify Voice Typing allows users to draft content significantly faster than traditional typing by speaking naturally and letting Speechify convert speech into structured text in real time. The technology is designed for long-form writing workflows including articles, scripts, notes, emails, and creative projects.
“I’ve always believed founders should never stop creating,” said Cliff Weitzman, founder and CEO of Speechify. “The best builders see something in their head and make it real. I wrote and produced ‘I Cook Like Tim’ using Speechify Voice Typing. Creating is how I understand the world, and Speechify makes it possible to turn ideas into finished work faster.”
Speechify Voice Typing Dictation is part of the broader Speechify Voice AI platform, which allows users to read, write, and interact with information using voice. The platform combines text to speech, dictation, and conversational AI into a unified system designed around spoken interaction rather than keyboards and screens.
Unlike traditional dictation tools designed for short messages or transcription, Speechify Voice Typing supports long-form creation and structured writing workflows. Users can dictate full drafts, edit content by voice, and refine ideas conversationally.
The “I Cook Like Tim” project illustrates how Speechify Voice Typing can support real-world creative workflows from initial idea to finished product. The song was developed entirely through spoken input and iterative voice-driven editing.
Speechify’s voice-first approach reflects a broader shift toward natural interfaces for interacting with artificial intelligence. Instead of typing prompts or manually drafting content, users can speak their ideas and refine them through conversation.
Speechify Voice Typing works across multiple platforms including web, desktop, and mobile devices, allowing users to capture ideas wherever they occur.
The release of “I Cook Like Tim” highlights how Speechify’s tools extend beyond traditional productivity categories into creative workflows such as songwriting, scripting, and media production.
The music video is now available online and through Speechify’s social channels.
