Hey HN,

I'm Akshay, and I love to experiment with real-time apps.

SparkPad is an experimental GenAI chat app. The twist is real-time collaboration: think multiplayer, a shared chatbook. Messages and streaming AI responses are live for everyone in the space. The prompt editor is also shared and synced.

I use it to create different spaces with custom prompts suited to a task, workflow, or project, keeping my chats scoped. It can also be shared with a team for a common prompt setup.

Tech details: Built with Yjs. Client-side AI API calls are routed through a designated host's API key. The only AI model for now is Gemini (because it's fast)

The link in title is my space/document, I'll be around for a few hours there.

If you want to create one of your own space to play around. Then go to oorja.io -> create your first space -> choose "try without signup". Then in the space add the Sparkpad app.
