Hi Product Hunt, amazing to see Short Circuit listed here! Shorty is an app that started as a small prototype of using ChatGPT with Siri, but blossomed into what we believe is a premier native experience for ChatGPT and GPT-4 for iOS, iPad, and Mac.
I’ve been an iOS developer since the first days of iOS, and an indie developer for the last year focusing on building high quality apps. When I started looking at AI what I didn’t see much of was love, polish, and care, and that’s so important for something that we’re going to be (and some of us are) using every single day. Many of our users have told us that Short Circuit was the first time they saw AI as something that wasn’t scary or nerdy. (I swear to you the app icon of every major ChatGPT app in the App Store is literally a brain floating in free space, and it says a lot about the vision people have for AI.)
One of the ways we focused on humanizing our app is to give it a very distinct personality, which comes through in everything from the app icon to the animations and playfulness throughout the app. Talking with Shorty feels like a specific flavor of ChatGPT, bringing in the best parts of their fine tuned models with our sense of delight and joy.
If you have different needs than the default personality we ship with, you can change any chat with a feature we call Personalities. Studies show that when you prime an AI with a role to play you can get better results as much as 92% of the time. Most people don’t know that nor should they have to, so we bundle Short Circuit with a dozen built-in personalities to help show you what it can do, and let you build personalities of your own for expert advice for other domains as well. It’s features like that which have built a really nice foundation for the future, and we hope to keep making AI a little more human… without being too human.
Really as one person building my apps (this time with the help of @khanlou) I would absolutely love to hear what you think about the app, how you think it might help you, and where we can keep making Short Circuit and Shorty even better!

Wow, this sounds like a brilliant integration of AI into our devices! I love the idea of having a personalized AI assistant on my iPhone and iPad. The flexibility of being able to turn it into a French tour guide or a math tutor is just impressively innovative. The feature of inventing my own personality for this AI, is certainly a cherry on the top. And it's quite amazing that you offer this diversity with a cost-effective one-time lifetime unlock. Great job on making AI technology more accessible and fun for users!
ChatGPT & GPT-4 integration across Apple devices offers a highly customizable and cost-effective solution, making AI accessibility and interaction more intuitive and personalized for a variety of user needs.
It's with great admiration that I congratulate you on the successful launch of your product. Your unwavering determination and forward-thinking have made a significant impact. Well done!
I'm curious to know more about the AI assistant's learning capabilities. What kind of datasets were used for training and how can users add their own custom datasets?
Hey, greetings from Chile!
I'm a language coach, and I've already downloaded Short Circuit. I found the personality function really attractive, so I think from now on I'll be saving a lot of time when creating guidelines and content for my clients and students!
Surely, I'll be testing the app, and then, after some time, you'll hear about my feedback! For now, it's a welcome addition.
Thanks in advance!
Love the product. I recommend adding a scanning feature due to the nature of a mobile/web app. I think there'd be a lot of practical uses if gpt4 could interact with user images/recordings. Coincidentally, my startup ezML offers powerful computer vision integration so let me know if you need that functionality for Short Circuit. Anyhow, congrats on the launch and I'm excited to see where this heads!
Congratulations on the launch! The one-time lifetime unlock is also a fantastic deal, making it even more accessible to most users compared to a ChatGPT+ subscription. Well done on this incredible achievement!
The interface is fresh, the communication is smooth, and this little robot is very cute!
