My father thinks in Bengali, but typing in native script is painful. Virtual keyboards are slow, punctuation is a maze, and switching between languages breaks flow. For formal writing — emails, letters, posts — it was exhausting. So I built him a tool where he could just speak. He dictated a two-page letter in Bengali, read the transcription, and said: "I didn't even need to change a single comma." That's when I knew this needed to exist.

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
